Tsunami Warning.
#1
I don't really know if this is a hoax or not, but better safe than sorry.

My sister from sweden called, she said that there was a magnitude 8.8 earthquake that originated from Chile, and there's a tsunami warning for all far-eastern asian countries, as well as some other regions.

As it originated from the other side of the Pacific, the eastern areas of the country might be affected by a tsunami estimated around 4 meters high.

Please check your cable news for details, as crappy free TV doesn't give a shit and would rather keep airing that melason couple.

Heads up, guys. Stay safe.

UPDATE: Confirmed via CNN's website (http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/americas/0...tml?hpt=T1). There is a Pacific-wide tsunami warning, check http://www.prh.noaa.gov/ptwc/ for details. Judging from the image, I guess we won't be having it as bad as other countries are.

UPDATE: OK, so currently Phivolcs has a tsunami level-2 warning raised for the east coast of the country. Still, probably not as bad as it sounds.

OLD: This is an energy map of the expected wave height coming from the Chile earthquake. As you can see, the Philippines will get a pretty minor tsunami if ever one hits. Although it does pay to be prepared.
