tsunami....round 2!

[SS]Chief · 03-28-2005

A large earthquake was registered Monday off Indonesia's Sumatra Island, the U.S. Geological Survey reported, news that prompted an immediate tsunami warning by another U.S. agency.

The earthquake, with a magnitude of 8.2, "has the potential to generate a widely destructive tsunami in the ocean or seas near the earthquake," the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration warned. It advised "immediate action" including "evacuation of coasts within a thousand kilometers (600 miles) of the epicenter and close monitoring to determine the need for evacuation further away."
