Oh I guess you are in Santiago. That was on the outer limit of the quakes radius wasn't it? Do you have any worries for family members?

West of Chile.

Thank God it was so insanely deep underwater, and that Chile has good infrastructure and knows how to handle earthquakes properly. Devastation will thankfully be nothing along the lines of what Haiti has faced. That said, best wishes to all those injured and those who lose family and friends. Bad stuff.

I'm fascinated now to see the tsunami and how it expands NW. With the warning system now in place let's hope it saves lives - a bouy in the open Pacific measured a 1.2m water rise as the tsunami passed. That's very high for open water. Hawaii should be having some fun later today. Same with places like Malibu.

The earth is really rocking right now - this comes a day after a strong quake in Japan and one off the coast of Sumatra. Lots of earthquakes in the past three months.

Hilo Bay may see wave heights of 10-15 feet. The water would move 11 miles inland.

Hawaii's gonna get rocked in 2 or so hours.

Receeding water is called backbuilding. Water pulls out then rushes back in.

Santa Monica Calif. has had staggering changes in the past hour.

And New Zealond just was hit with the tsunami - they are at the 12hr mark whereas Hawaii is at the 14-15 hour mark. Still going to be a while until Hilo gets fucked up.

1.5 metre wave hit the chatam islands.

We're not going to get hit, really, though it appears that it's like the tides going in and out every 15 metres.

Yea a tsunami is like a very fast tide. It is not one big wave - the amount of water is built up under the surface. That creates waves that can stagger many miles.

Jesus Christ CNN and Fox News are fucking horrible.

Turn off the TV and watch this: Hawaii News Now - LIVE - Hawaii News Now - KGMB and KHNL Home

Live shot of Hilo. Water is beginning to pour in.
