ganesh Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Tsunami warnings established all over the Indian Ocean. Hopefully, all the preparations will pay off this time and that there will be no casualities.. Office buildings were evacuated in the Cities of Chennai, Bangalore and Calcutta in India as Tremors moved in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Good luck, i just sent notes to cousins of mine in the asian/pacific area, they seem to be unaffected so far(korea). Saw that they are posting tsunami watches for such places as UK and Iran(I guess i can see Iran...)... again, best of luck in riding this one out!

bowery4 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 In Bangkok myself, didn't feel the shocks or quake, it seems so far nothing big is going to happen again thank Buddha (of course it won't be over really for a couple more hours but so far so good on the coast where it hit last time). Best of luck and prayers. Sure can be an exciting country to live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 These are slip fault quakes (horizontal motion. They rarely produce tsunamis. The Christmas quake and the one last year are thrust faults, where there is a lot of vertical motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just in case, I hope people follow the elephants up to higher ground this time, rather than wade out into the CURRENTLY dissipating surf.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
