Massive Earthquake Reported
I thought I would post this, for anyone who hits here first thing this morning without having seen the news elsewhere first.
There was an earthquake of 8.9 magnitude in the Indian Ocean. That’s the largest in 40 years. Tsunamis have killed thousands and counting. Speculation is the number could ultimately be millions in India.
Regular updates at Command Post’s Global Recon page. Newest posts at the top, scroll for a great deal of detail, including reports from people with specific local knowledge. The current top post reports on a specific beach, picturing the damage. Death toll on that one stretch is expected to be at least 100.
It’s currently the cover story at both FoxNews and MSNBC. Also CNN, now that I look there too. CNN says it’s the fifth largest quake since 1900.
Ouch. Here’s hoping, if not expecting, the damage and death toll is inexplicably minimal for such a major event.
