Tsunami

[BakedMopar]

Japan just had a 8.9 earthquake which triggered a Tsunami Warning for Hawaii and other places. They are looking at it to reach us around 2:30-3:00am.

Just to think we had everything setup for a day at the pond tommorw since it's Forlough Friday again.

Thoughts and prayers go out out to all that are affected by this. The traffic is unreal outside. There's a couple gas stations about three blocks away and the line goes past my home. Crazy stuff!


Also to any moderators, if this is in the wrong section please feel free to move.

My brother lives in Tokyo and Mum is over there for a holiday (went yesterday) Have a few comments on her FB page so she and sister in law are ok so far but no word from my bro or two young nephews. I guess it is the cell coverage is limited or compromised.
I am confident they are ok and will advise as I know more.

It's amazing what people will risk just to get some video. Time after time people do this kind of $hit and it usually ends up turning into a rescue (or recovery) mission.

Hah, wow. Interesting video, terrible idea.

I was thinking about you guys today, along with my mom, who is vacationing in Hawaii right now. Glad everyone is safe.
