Here's a photo of what Okinawa, Japan looked like after the last earthquake I reported on in February 2010 and this is pretty much what I expect it to look like tomorrow, except, it may not be so sunny.
There's a flood of emails coming in and I appreciate everyone's concern. This is the quickest way for me to reply. Please pass this on to anyone who may be worried.
Okinawa island is hours away, by plane, from where all the damage has been done.
If you hear anything about Taiwan getting hit, I'm closer to that island than I am to mainland Japan.
So far, the worst of the tsunami has passed. It was something like 20 centimeters (8 inches) from what I've gathered. Please don't worry about me. I can handle worse things than that. I'm a married man !
I have found that the GOOGLE CRISIS RESPONSE seems to be the best place to go for maps, locations and accurate updates.
The folks up in Sendai are the ones we all need to be concerned about and I hope everyone helps them make a speedy recovery.
