The Juan de Fuca plate moves laterally along the NA plate, right? So when we get a quake here, it is going to be huge. The longer the wait, the bigger it gets. Since we haven't had a major one, we are due for one helluva big earthquake.

Within the last 30 days.

Its not about the wait. Its about the hiccups in the subduction process of the plates.

Haven't seen much on the fire??? what live feed are you guys using?

Does anyone know if they got hit?

Hey guys, another update:

Watching NHK, a lot of the focus is mainly on the tsunamis up north. It showed about 10 minutes ago a wave of water sweeping into Aomori. Pretty scary watching that live. Right now on TV, it's showing a growing tsunami still a ways offshore of Miyagi-ken.

In terms of damage in the city, most of the buildings are in-tact. However, they did show a building completely crumbled in Fukushima. Another education institution had their roof collapse and everyone was outside. There were tarps and a few ambulances outside and a lot of paramedics working on people.

Early estimation is 216 billion yen of damage but not like that even matters at this point and time.

Watching aljazeera on and off, I guess i've just missed it.

thanks
