The Tsunami Advisory continues in effect for the coastal areas of Alaska from Chignik Bay, Alaska to Attu, Alaska.

The Tsunami Watch continues in effect for the coastal areas of California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and Alaska from the California-Mexico border to Chignik Bay, Alaska.

A Tsunami Advisory means that a tsunami capable of producing strong currents or waves dangerous to persons in or very near the water is expected. Significant, widespread inundation is not expected for areas under an advisory. Currents may be hazardous to swimmers, boats, and coastal structures and may continue for several hours after the initial wave arrival.

A Tsunami Watch means that all coastal residents in the watch area should prepare for possible evacuation. A tsunami watch is issued to areas which will not be immediately impacted by the tsunami. Watch areas will either be upgraded to warning or advisory status, or canceled.

At 9:46 PM Pacific Standard Time on March 10, an earthquake with preliminary magnitude 8.8 occurred near the east coast of Honshu, Japan . (Refer to the United States Geological Survey for official earthquake parameters.) This earthquake has generated a tsunami which could cause damage to coastal regions in a warning or advisory. The waves are expected to first reach Shemya, Alaska at 12:13 AM AKST on March 11. Estimated tsunami arrival times and maps along with safety rules and other information can be found on the WCATWC web site.

Measurements of reports of tsunami activity:

TSUNAMI OBSERVED ON DEEP OCEAN BUOY
UPGRADED MAGNITUDE TO 8.8


Tsunamis can be dangerous waves that are not survivable. Wave heights are amplified by irregular shoreline and are difficult to forecast. Tsunamis often appear as a strong surge and may be preceded by a receding water level. Mariners in water deeper than 600 feet should not be affected by a tsunami. Wave heights will increase rapidly as water shallows. Tsunamis are a series of ocean waves which can be dangerous for several hours after the initial wave arrival. DO NOT return to evacuated areas until an all clear is given by local civil authorities.

Pacific coastal regions outside California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska should refer to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center messages for information on the event.

This message will be updated in 30 minutes or sooner if the situation warrants. The tsunami message will remain in effect until further notice. For further information stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio, your local TV or radio stations, or see the WCATWC web site.

earthquake.usgs.gov...

Several waves to hit hawaii 7:59 EST they say it is imminent. They are saying that people on the west coast AK, WA, CA should move to higher ground ASAP

Yeah, my house on the Big Island just started shaking. No way was I feeling the Sympathetic vibration from Japan, right?

Interesting night, not in a good way.

Snow here in Southwest Virginia... though we woke up to the sound of thunderstorms/lightning while it was snowing... I thought it was quite odd myself.

Im in Los Angeles, and I'm getting a terrible feeling that something is wrong. Kind of an imminent danger feeling. Never felt like this before.

So...has anybody in this thread tried to link the upcoming March 15th pole shift with this earthquake yet?

I still don't give the date any credibility, but if the world starts breaking apart then, at least we can't yell at God for not giving us a warning sign.

Talk to Ben81, he might be able to tell you???

Sorry I can't be of anymore help here.

ok good, maybe it just a weird coincidence

reply to post by IamWatching


I checked the news before I left work, and nothing was going, on. It took me 40 mins to walk home and while I was walking I randomly got REALLY paranoid and kept looking over my shoulder and couldn't help this extremely bothersome feeling. I get home and see this. We are all connected people..

As for the sound you hear, I just stepped outside for a minute or 2 and didn't hear anything, my sky is tripping me out though.

I hope you guys are going to be ok... This is NOT a good situation!

I am very tired but I can't sleep knowing many people are in peril.

Hawaii - 4.5
See Here

Wow... Between the 'pole shift' and the moon closer than ever before in a few days, and all the rest... It's getting harder to think of this as 'coincidence'...

HANG IN THERE PEOPLE AND THINK POSITIVE!!!

peace

Just went outside here in Detroit, nothing but blowing snow here.

I mean no offense to anyone, but sometimes weird feelings are simply weird feelings. Sometimes a particular tint of the sky is due to natural (and most likely local) circumstances involving pressure systems and storms, etc.

I was sleeping and woke up at 3AM with a bad feeling, turned on the news and well... here we are

Umm guys, I dunno if this matters but:

Flood Tracker: Heavy Rain in the Northeast, Big cities prepare for flooding:

We are about to have our own flood in the United States. Is this related.
