kapkomet Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Yikes. Preliminary reports of an earthquake - magnitude 7.7 in Indonesia. Just hit the wires, no details yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Man, I'm amazed that I looked at that number and thought "That's too small to be on the megathrust over there." Those 2 last year were damn amazing. Looks like there's very little threat of anything really bad, along the lines of last year, happenign with this one. If the early location data are accurate, and they probably are...it's way too deep to cause any major displacement on the surface. You know, that is still pretty impressive that you get one of that magnitude that deep, if I recall correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Gleason Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 A buddy of mine just uprooted and moved there last week!!! We have heard from him already and he is fine. Talk about timing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
