8.8 Quake. I´m O.K.

Hey GC, just wanted to say I´m fine, after 12 hours with no heat or water because of an earthquake in the south. Sea level rose and the ocean came in about four or five blocks in some places, the Juan Fernandez Islands were hit by a tsunami and people are seeking refuge in the hills.

It was pretty intense here, but it was a complete disaster where the epicenter was.

If anyone is from Hawaii or anywhere near the Pacific you should be on watch for big waves since latest news has the French Polynesia has been hit by rising sea level.

Here´s a story.

I was like 300 km away and felt a 7.3 quake that lasted around three minutes.

 

I walked around town today, lots of buildings with windows shot out, doors knocked off the hinges, some streets were lifted and stuff.

Ground was shaking like a trampolin, walls were moving like they were made of jello or something.

 

No damage to my place, only minor damages in town, but down south is completely upside down. I have friends whose family members are missing and entire parts of citites are destroyed.

According to the US Geological Survey, it was 900 times more intense than the one in Haiti.

 

Yeah I have, fortunately my familiy lives in the same city, and most of my relatives live either to the extreme north or south, not really close to the disaster area.



Thanks for your concern.



I´m getting info that Argentina felt it also and some of it´s cities are possibly as bad as ours are. It was felt was far away as Sao Paulo,Brazil, around 1600 kms away.

 

Hope it doesn´t hit you guys hard. I found a streaming video of hawaii so I´ll be checking it out and my thoughts will be with you.

 

Holy shit!
Glad you're O.K and hope everything turns out well.
