FOX NEWS broke into regular programming sometime between one and one thirty AM with news of a deadly tsunami hitting the northeast (I believe) coast of Japan due to an 8.8 or 8.9 earthquake off shore. The video is horrible. There are estimated from 13 foot or larger tides coming into to large cities on the coast. Cars homes and people are washed away. It is not known whether these people had any advance warning of the tsunami.
The tsunami is expected to hit the coast of other countries. Russia, Guam, the Philippines, Hawaii and perhaps even the west coast of the US. The tsunami tide is expected to be smaller the further from the center of the earthquake, however a warning was given in Hawaii to expect the tsunami to hit about two to three AM.
