The weirdest thing is that a couple months ago I read some guy's blog that said a huge quake will hit in mid March. I was reading about HAARP.
I'll try to find it.

Good luck to them.

Sounds like the shit is in the process of hitting the fan with the plant. Hopefully they can get that thing cooled down to manageable temps before it gets any worse. Best wishes to all in Japan or anyone with friends or family there.

(Reuters) - Pressure inside a reactor at Tokyo Electric Power Co's quake-hit Fukushima Daiichi plant may have risen to 2.1 times its designed capacity, Japan's trade ministry said on Saturday, exceeding the 1.5-times level announced a few hours earlier. Temperatures and pressure at the No.1 reactor have been rising since its cooling system was knocked out by the earthquake, the largest on record in Japan, raising worries about a possible radiation leak. The company said it was preparing back-up generators to pump water and cool the reactor.

ONE FOOT WAVES OH SHIT

A 1 foot surge is much different than a 1 foot wave.

I was watching the live footage last night as people were driving away from it and getting swept away in their cars while driving. Absolutely bananas! I feel for the entire region and anyone with relatives in its wrath.

I read about the earthquake on twitter around 3am EST, it's crazy to see how huge this thing was.

If you turned it on early enough you saw live coverage of helicopters following it.

Anyone has a vid link? I'd like to see this.

Not with my own eyes. I took to higher ground, though on my way home the water line at Wiamea Bay looked sort of high on the sand compared to usual. My room mate stayed at the house (yea he is that guy) and said it seemed minimal but it was also 3:30a.m. so it would have been difficult to see given the lack of illumination and coherence of the individual. I have heard that some of the boats in a bay four miles down the road in Haleiwa suffered some damage but can't confirm this information first hand.

Damn. Did you see any kind of tsunamic wave?

Hawaii

N. Shore of Oahu checking in all is well. Although I did sleep in my truck up on a hill named Pupukea. My bed is only about 15ft. above sea level 20yds. from the water so I thought it best to find higher ground.

Apparently there is a Nuclear plant that is having some problems.. Man, I feel for the nation and anyone that has family and friends over there.
