Peter
I heard them saying this morning that
a) nothing had been measured in Nth Qld , but
b) nonetheless they were clearing Bondi ??
Still I suppose it gives us some practice.
And true, (to be fair ), I guess it's possible for the Barrier Reef to protect them and not us

We got the warning in Tas too. They said there could be waves on the East Coast of Tas after 12:30 but I'm not aware of anything actually happening. It did get a lot of attention even from the usually non-serious news radio stations though.

The site is Google Earth which is a world wide GPS programme. One function it has allows you to locate longitude and latitude coordinates, on this occasion the epicentre and place a track. Minimum to run XP.Good for fishing coordinates. Tassie looks safe in this attachmemt

2020, this came with the mail.
Google Earth streams the world over wired and wireless networks enabling users to virtually go anywhere on the planet and see places in photographic detail. This is not like any map you have ever seen. This is a 3D model of the real world, based on real satellite images combined with maps, guides to restaurants, hotels, entertainment, businesses and more. You can zoom from space to street level instantly and then pan or jump from place to place, city to city, even country to country.
