Japan was hit with a 8.9 Earthquake on the Richter scale around 3:00 am eastern standard time. There were tsunamis (waves that are generated by an earthquake that can be as 100 ft and can travel as fast as a Jumbo Jet going about 745 miles per hour) that desvasted the Eastern Coast of Japan and it was even felt on the West Coast from Alaska all the way down to Hawaii. The Earthquake was the Fifth largest earthquake that has been recorded since 1900. Tokoyo which was located a 100 miles away from the epic-center of the earthquake felt it. No telling what the death toll will be, but I will tell you that is not going to be a small number.
There can not be any words that can describe what Japan is facing. They are having problems with 5 of their nuclear reactors, due to the tsunamis coming in. I pray that they are able to recover from this tragic day of natural disaster.
This goes to show you that Mother Nature can strike with little or no warning at all.
