UltimateWarrior 0 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) Now they are saying that Tokyo was NOT hit but coastal areas were after 8.9 quake off Japanese coast. Entire west coast of U.S. is under tsunami watch/alert. Edited March 11, 2011 by UltimateWarrior Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loosenuts 0 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 They have some real nasty footage of the Tsunami waves throwing around boats, cars and trucks like they are cotton balls. The aftershocks have been high in number and intensity...........Terrible thing for the third largest economy in the World. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SOPMOD 254 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 US ships are hauling them coolant for one of their reactors that has a damaged cooling tower. I truly like the Japanese and my prayers go out to them. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a tragedy but at least all US troops stationed there are accounted for. As far as all other Americans there, keep them in your thoughts and prayers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
6500rpm 670 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 The only thing left for them to endure is Godzilla's return. Pretty much makes Katrina look like a spring storm and I wish them the best-hope most of it is over and there's no more major quakes. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kliegl 304 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Yes, the plant had an explosion, but it wasn't the reactor. It's meltdown that people need to be concerned about, and it hasn't happened yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PYRO 44 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) The wave and some of the damage it caused here on the Kona side of the Big Island of Hawaii. This was about 3 hours after the first waves started coming in, and this caused the most damage. This is the main street of Kailua-Kona, where all the tourist shops are. The sea wall that is show in part of this vid is normally about 7' higher then the water at high tide,,,,,,it was coming over the top of the sea wall. Pretty much everything up and down the street has damage including the street and sidewalks where completely buckled . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91Wh0_yNJhc This is farther south in Napo'opo'o,,,,,a whole house was washed out to sea and was floating in the bay,,,,,and a bunch of others housing destroyed. http://www.bigislandvideonews.com/2011/03/11/raw-video-kona-tsunami-house-washes-away-floats-in-bay/ Edited March 12, 2011 by PYRO Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty much makes Katrina look like a spring storm and I wish them the best-hope most of it is over and there's no more major quakes. When it comes to preparedness for potential disasters, Japan is among the best in the world. Obviously there are some things a seismically active island nation with a strong economic reliance on the sea has to risk, but as hard as they've been hit by this, if they'd been as ill-prepared as New Orleans had been for Katrina, I think things would be a lot worse. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DrThunder88 912 Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I heard on the radio that a re-analysis of the quake has resulted in it being upgraded to a 9.0. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but a 9.0 is about 20-30% stronger than an 8.9. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
