8.8 Quake Rocks Chile

SuperFemme · 02-27-2010, 05:53 AM

Right Ms. Diva? My wheelchair can outrun a wave. Just keep me off the bridges please.

I was just watching a video with Cal showing that the strongest earthquake EVER on record came from Chile in 1960 at 9.5. That prompted a Tsunami in Hilo following that quake with a loss of life of approx. 100.

Interestingly, the strongest quakes are not always the deadliest. I am way worried about this quake because the quakes are rocking right off the coast, close to Santiago and Consencion.

No word yet on Tsunami injuries but one would be expected to reach HI by 11 a.m. local time there.

Pat Roberts better zip it!
