I got the same warning

I live in Coronado and we're surrounded, as you know, by the Pacific ocean and San Diego Bay. While I don't downplay tsunamis Coronado does have some protection. Point Loma juts out from San Diego Bay and protects us from tsunamis from the Northwest. The Coronado Island to the Southwest off Mexico helps dissipate the power of a tsunami hitting us. While I don't discount the dangers of a tsunami I think we'll be okay whatever happens.

One thing I won't do is go to the beach or the bay until the tsunami danger is over. There are plenty of fools who'll head to the beach to see the tsunami and IMO they're candidates for a Darwin Award.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
