Tsunami Warning Lifted


My sister, her husband, her daughter and neighbors endured an overnight stay at an evacuation center last night for the first time. Philippine government agency Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) issued an alert level two for possible occurrence of tsunami to some provinces within Philippines Archipelago. The 8.9 magnitude quake in Tokyo Japan triggered the tsunami. Philippines was issued tsunami warnings, along with Russia, Taiwan, Papua New Guinea, Guam, Hawaii and the U.S. West Coast.
