Hope it's not bad. MSNBC has scant details about only 6 foot waves and none of the networks are breaking in with the story, not even CNN. I hope that means its not bad. Where is Kevin? This is South Japan / Okinawa

They just confirmed that they canceled Tsunami warnings an hour after the quake. Maybe Kevin will get good surf anyway.

Thanks for the kind thoughts guys :thumbup:
... but I'm in the middle of the main island, near the big lake :D If I've done this correctly, our house should be in the middle of the screen - but all you stalkers watch out ... we've got psychotic attack cat on duty! :lol:

As for tsunami warnings here ... they're the biggest bunch of sissies in the world. Last warning I took notice of was predicting a 20cm wave. 20cm? How the hell can you tell the difference between a normal ripple and a tsunami?!?



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

This may mean more big waves at Mavericks (15 miles south of San Francisco) - 50 foot swells.
