He said the tidal wave had gone 4K miles to hit the coast of Africa. I don't recall what he said about its force, tho. I posted an article a few months back, in which some folks were talking about this very thing off the Azores; would be devastating to both Europe and the East Coast.

Something this big is hard to imagine; it's like 10 times the SF quake, 15 times the size of my 7.8 biggie. Shows the power of Ma Nature; moving an island, raising mountains (I think the 1890 or whatever quake in Owens Valley lifted the Sierras about 20 feet).

Thanks for the rain. Thought I was going to get snow last night, but it held off; made it down to the peak across the valley that always gets it just before us, but we probably missed by 150 feet. So far.
