"Japan tsunami: A massive 8.8 earthquake has struck northern Japan. Tsunami warnings have been issued for Japan and Russia, and a tsunami watch has been issued for Hawaii and other Pacific island nations in the region."

Well shit. Quite a few major earthquakes these past few years. Also Hawaii was quickly updated to a tsunami warning. Looks like it's time to grab my boogie board!

[BloodyCheery]

Aaaaaand here comes the tsunami sirens. Toodles!

[iinnkk]

hope you're okay and come back in one piece

[BloodyCheery]

I live on high ground but knowing these guys they're gonna have us pack our shit and remain at work overnight.

EDIT: From what I'm hearing from my buddies right now, Guam and parts of Okinawa are having to evacuate right now. People close to the shore here in Hawaii have to move to higher ground. Tsunami is estimated to hit Oahu around 3AM.

The tsunami is worse than what people estimated it to be. Hang tight guys!

[Hnilmik]

Is it bad that I want you to take pictures?

[BloodyCheery]

I'm not leaving my room to take pictures. This is starting to get really scary. I live in high ground yet I'm getting really scared. The news stream I'm watching covering Tokyo is just...good Lord. It's being discussed that the islands of Hawaii are going to get hit hard. Oahu might be partially underwater.  




No, I'm not watching FOX news.

Shit man even my friends in Japan aren't answering their phones

"A tsunami warning issued by the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii after a large earthquake in Japan was widened beyond East Asia late Thursday to include Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and Central and South America and the rest of the Pacific Ocean."

If what I'm seeing on CNN is correct, whatever would have hit us has already come and gone.
