Earthquake with magnitude of 8.9 has struck near Indonesia

[johnnyboy]

What first 8.6 then 8.8 then 8.2 and now 8.1...... or is 8.1 and 8.2 the same one? In total 1 earthquake with 3 aftershocks or 4 aftershocks.

Man that is amazingly fast.....within 1 hours the C-130J are loaded...good....

As per recent reports, there have been 3 aftershocks (8.8, 8.1 and 8.3) after the original 8.6. Updates also coming in that a rise of 0.8 meters has been detected in waters after the third aftershock.

A very good way to handle Tsunami panic is to switch off the TV. I already did.

What do you have to worry about tsunami ?

I didn't even feel the damn thing.

So, does that mean Tsunami is on it's way to reach Madras?

Warning has been withdrawn but people in Andaman evacuated to higher ground, 4-5m wave expected. Nobody wants to take any chance it seems.

I did not feel the quake, but I believe others in Kolkata have felt it.

There are reports of cracks in the buildings!

The last week, except for one day, we have had Nor'western which have uprooted trees and roofs of buildings. Cars have also toppled.
