USGS has 8.6! **** that's huge. My guess is they call they another aftershock from the 9.1 but still very large.

8.9?

That is plenty big enough. Everyone get 5km away from the coast, and 50 meters in elevation.

No ****ing around.

Cerich get away from the harbour and get up 5 stories or more.

As often happens at such times, there are conflicting reports from different agencies.

The US Geological Survey is saying a destructive tsunami is unlikely, while the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre says that sea level readings indicate that a tsunami has been generated and it may have already caused destruction along some coast lines in the Indian Ocean.

Sitting here in front of the beach right now. On the gulf of Thailand side, so out of harm's way. Keeping an eye on the water level just for fun anyway.
