I read one report that said water traveled inland 60 miles in some places.
That means if it were New England, Mt. Wachusette would be ocean front property
Just got word from a friend in Tokyo. No power, no trains and they're stuck in the office for the night. The Japanese building code and safety procedures are built around earthquakes and tsunamis. The high casualty count is unnerving. Unbelievable scenes from Japan. Thoughts and prayers.
Haven't heard from my "sister"(exchange student when I was young) in okayama Japan yet - or from her daughter in Tokyo. Pretty nervous.. Not answering her phone.. Maybe not working...
Cell phones are working but jammed with traffic.
Got an email... Said her daughters phone is dead in Tokyo - no SMS either...
Internet working.. scary stuff... Everyone's ok...
