If a tsunami reached this neck of the woods...we'd all have some serious worrying to do!

I've ridden many storm surges in my time, but personally, I'll pass on a tsunami...they're a horse of a totally different color.
 
Tsunami warning alert in Apia sounded again 25 minutes ago

News had a man there , said the place was emmpy except for police

Apparently some people only had 30 seconds warning from the first wave
 
Calamity after calamity. After Typhoon Ketsana a tsunami. Then after that forecasts show two storms brewing in the Pacific ready to hit parts of Visayas and Mindanao.

It's a good thing you're okay 109Roaming, hope other people in New Zealand and Samoa are okay too.
 
Hey, im from NZ..
Didnt hit us too bad, where im living i think there was a slight change in the water level..
Im pretty sure that the north half of the north island was the worst hit with some rocking of a few boats..

Other than that all the boarders will be pretty gutted..
 

Yeah man my thoughts too , you in the south island too?

I'd say Samoa are the only ones still in danger , news said the death figure was in triple figures of course though it'l be a while before they know more accurate figures

thanks for your concern
 
Glad your safe Daniel though I fear for our friends on Samoa, had a lovely holiday there a few years back and the still talking about the cyclone of Jan 2004.
