The Potomac water temp is around 36°F posing extreme hypothermia risk for AA flight 5342 survivors. Hypothermia can set in at those temperatures in just 30 minutes. Weather was not a factor, with clear skies and calm winds. Hoping and praying for a miracle. Such a tragedy and heartbreaking news 💔

Earthquake Q&A thread 🧵 Q1: Why didn’t this earthquake generate a tsunami? A1: This earthquake moved the ground sideways. Underwater quakes where the ground moves up are the ones that usually generate tsunamis. This video explains. (This is an older video so it sadly doesn’t have captions)

UPDATE: Tsunami warning has been CANCELED 🙏

🚨BREAKING: Tsunami WARNING issued from Santa Cruz, CA to Florence, OR after a 7.0 M earthquake off the coast of CA Seek higher ground!
