Japans massive 8.9 magnitude earthquake INSANE.
Early this morning I woke up to give my 5 month old his little snack bottle and after, couldn't fall asleep. I reached for my phone and opened up facebook when all I started to see were posts about Japan and this horrifying earthquake that just hit but quickly fell back asleep. This morning I put on Channel 7 and watched the news, like always and again got a better understanding Being from Miami, I don't know what that must be like or how the families of those in Japan are feeling right now, but I could only imagine and I'm devastated. The earthquake and the tsunami that is on its way to Alaska, Hawaii and California is terrifying. My prayers are with those passed, injured and ofcorse the families who are going through a very tough time right now. Google has launched a person finder to help this situation just a bit. In addition to that here are some key notes given by MSN.com.
Key details:
- Police say 200 to 300 bodies found in northeastern coastal area
