    My sister lives (I hope) in Sendai - 1st city hit by tsunami

    My sister and her two beautiful girls live in Sendai, the closest city to the epicentre of the earthquake. We haven't heard a word from her. I have registered her with D.F.A.T. and fingers crossed but a friend of hers in another part of Japan doesn't think it looks good. She may have been in the way of the tsunami.

    A frightening time for you Steve. I pray it works out okay for your sister.
    Listening to some of the reports this evening it does sound like their warning systems are very good and that the population takes them seriously. With luck her and a lot of others have managed to get out of harms way.

    What is this world coming to?

    No news is good news, all the phone lines will be out so it will take a few days untill solid info becomes avalable.

    Our thoughts and hopes are with you and your family.

    Kenleyfred. Maybe the Mayans were onto something? Perhaps not a total meltdown but we have had a lot of unusual meteorological and geophysical activity lately?

    Steve, Glad they are all OK. Looked terrifying and has done some damage, but on the plus side Japan are ready more than most for this type of thing. My daughter is thinking about going over there on student exchange, has me a bit concerned now.
