        The vibration/tremors were felt there. Some buildings collapsed, but no report of the casualties yet.

        People on the lowest ground level, maybe had a minute before that wave hit. It was fast. You really don't have much time. Scientists say it came as a surprise. After seeing major earthquakes produce #Tsunamis why don't you tell the people to evacuate anyway 🕊️ 😢
