일본 8.9 강진과 쭈나미로 엄청난 피해를 입다: Strong quake and tsunami bash Japan

어제 2011년 3월 11일 일본 앞 바다에서 진도 8.9의 어마어마한 지진이 일어나 추나미가 발생하며 센다이 지역을 집중 강타하며 연안 지역을 초토화 시켰다. 테레비로 광경을 목격하였는데 10미터의 높은 파도가 계속 몰려오면서 모든 것을 쓸어버리며 삼켜 버렸다. 상상을 초월한 파도의 힘은 수 많은 사상자는 물론 피해 지역은 복구가 불가능할 정도로 피해가 너무 크다. 도라가 3피트나 솟아 올라 간 것도 보았는데 추나미는 시속 500마일의 속도로 움직이며 태평양의 모든 연안에 이를 것으로 보여 하와이는 이미 다달았고 미 서부 연안은 조금 후인 오전 11시 반 전후가 될 것으로 예상하여 만약의 사태에 대비하여 만반의 준비를 하고 있다.
Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan

역사상 가장 큰 지진은 1960년 칠레에서 일어난 것으로 진도 9.5였다. 이 번 지진은 일본 역사상 가장 큰 것이라고 한다. 추나미가 오는 주기는 40분에서 50분 정도의 긴 시간을 두고 계속 밀려오리라고 예상하고 있다. 여진이 20여개가 있었는데 진도 6짜리도 있었다.
