Full website post with the earthquake stats, sceenshots of the TWO 8.9 and 8.7M earthquakes... plus links you will need to monitor the buoy network / Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, and earthquakes globally: http://sincedutch.wordpress.com/2012/04/11/4112012-8-7-magnitude-earthquake-s...

Earthquake and Tsunami plans are always in order for anyone who lives around the Pacific ring of fire (coastal areas low lying)... earthquake plans also should be made BY EVERYONE --- as seismic activity can strike without any notice .. at almost anywhere on the planet.

Certain areas are seeing more activity than others... as evidenced by all these past recent large earthquakes globally. Be alert, be prepared --- STAY INFORMED YOURSELF USING THE LINKS PROVIDED ---- you know your areas, have a shelter in place, local flee, and regional flee plan. Food, water, communications, transportation, self defense... just to name a FEW of the things required to survive after a major catastrophe.

Be safe
