Russia hit with 8.7 earthquake, Tsunami warning on West Coast of the US !

[Happyflowerlady]

There was an 8.7 quake just off the shores of Russia, which is a very large earthquake. There have been some smaller quakes in the area of islands that run from Alaska to Russia, but this one was a huge quake, and there are now tsunami warnings all along the West Coast of the US.

It made the Nashville, TN 10:00 PM news.

Sadly this quake is allegedly in the top ten biggest on record.

Every body in the pacific has accurate predictions.
The West coast, Alaska are total B.S.

Reading of this, I had a flashback of the earthquake we had on the Island of Shemya, near Kamchatka.
The quake in 1975 was 7.6 and caused damage to the runway and buildings.

Aircraft was the only way on or off the island, so we were concerned as no planes could land.
I was finishing up my 1 year duty there and remember it being a very busy time due to the reason we were there.

Read that the island of Shemya was damaged in the latest quake and military personnel were evacuated.

One city near Canada on the USA Pacific Coast got hit with 6 to 7 inch waves!!!!

A couple of videos floating out there showed dead whales washing up or stranded in Japan and coastal community flooded in Russia.

Probably more celebrity drama/debate in Hawaii than waves with evacuees being told/not told they could use a celebrity's road on higher ground

Goodness ... Mother Nature has an angry mood on her today. Earthquakes, tsunami's and a volcano erupting too.
I hope everyone is safe.

My son in Calif. is scheduled in mid-Sept for a tsunami workshop/class for his job.
I think your timing may have been a bit off Calif.
