Hope it's not a repeat of the 2004 disaster.
Has even shown on the NZ quake drums. Last edited by MAGPIE; 11-04-2012 at 07:27 PM. |

The threat still remains for a tsunami in 28 countries.... Got friends in phuket currently who are saying water is receding at present.... After shocks are being felt too...
The earthquake was 8.6 and is one of the worlds top 10 earthquakes to hit now in 100 years fingers crossed nothing comes from this |

Mum, Dad and my sister are there now too. My friends in the US Navy say the plates moved horizontally so the likelihood of a tsunami is greatly reduced.
I'm still quite worried for them though.

2012 is beginning lol. Seriously but, things mother nature wise have been pretty chaotic this last year or so. Hope it doesn't get worse. Very glad there was no major tsunami with 1000's dead.
