14:37 the way the waves are slowly coming in is beautiful, until you see the damage it can cause. I'm in Iowa. Have never seen an ocean, don't know anything about them except what I've seen on tv.

This earthquake & its tsunami were so destructive for Japan. If the country's early warning systems weren't so efficient, the loss of life would probably have been as great as the 2004 Indian Ocean quake & tsunami. With over twice as much water on the surface of the planet as land, water has the potential to overwhelm coastlines, river systems, & inland seas & lakes any time, anywhere. If the waters pull away from the shore, or the ground trembles & a rumble is heard in the river valley, don't hesitate. Get to higher ground ASAP. Whether a tsunami or flood happens or not, at least people will still be alive. Better safe than sorry - or dead.

I usually pray before i leave for work in the morning. you never know when the day, the last day will come. I remember this day. I was staying at my aunts place and woke up in the middle of the night. dont remember exactly what time it was, but on my computer i chimed onto japanese news broadcast live. and they mentioned about a major earthquake, but the chopper live was filming the oncoming tsunami waives, the first making their way to japans coastal shores. i had no idea what i was about to witness, and even then, to think of what would befall so many. looking here the day was so nice, and yet it would end exactly the opposite of how it began.

This area is turned away from the direct onslaught of the wave. This area faces mostly south. So the wave we see is a "wrap around" wave, which bends around a peninsula. Also, this area is about 200 miles to the south of where the wave was worst. Even still, it is a massive surge of water!
