Watching the video on CNN is terrible. I don't see many people in the video, hopefully most of the people were evacuated. I thought I saw driving cars get enveloped by the wave though.
Scary footage watching cars trying to get away from the wall of water only to be swept away , hope no one was killed
That's the worst part, knowing that they basically had no hope of getting away... The death toll there is gonna be pretty big. Thankfully it's mostly fishing villages and farmland being hit right now but who knows how far the tsunamis will spread...
^^Most of the Major cities in this area are on the coast. There are lots of images of cities being hit on the news here. There are reports on the news in Japan of lots of missing people coming in now, but there's no way they can even start counting yet. Just had another aftershock roll through too, just when you're starting to feel somewhat comfortable again. Lots of burst gas and water lines in the cities close to the two epicentres. Plus most people here take the trains to work, many in a nearby city. So all those people (millions) are stranded where they are until all the rail lines can be checked out and they can go home. Crazy stuff
