I'll be shocked if the death toll isn't way above this 10,000 estimate.

Seen this on the news this morning. It's horrific. I wonder how many innocent people are still trapped in buildings and in rubble?

...as opposed to the guilty people trapped in buildings and in rubble?

I remember the earthquake that postponed the World Series. That was a bad one.

That earthquake was a 6.9. Both of the larger quakes in Turkey today were significantly stronger than that quake in San Francisco (the Loma Prieta earthquake).

I just noticed the location. There's a US air base, Incirlik, next to Adana.

Turkey earthquake tremors felt as far away as Greenland

Honestly, my pets were acting all kinds of strange yesterday. Maybe that was why?

 

[davethevol]

Very sad. The pictures of children being rescued absolutely breaks my heart.

 

[NorthDallas40]

Damn. What an incredible amount of destruction.

 

[VolStrom]

Damn. What an incredible amount of destruction.

I don't wish that amount of destruction on anyone, but it's a matter of time before another major earthquake rattles the teeth out of California.

And Memphis and Charleston.

And Memphis and Charleston.

Large earthquakes in Charleston, SC are likely only an issue for future generations. The last large earthquake in Charleston was in 1886, and large earthquakes in that area supposedly occur every 500-600 years.

Death Toll Now past 5000 and there was a 4th quake about 5.9



Saw one expert saying the toll could rise 8 fold, unsure about that but if it's 5000 this early in the rescue, and the weather issues they are having this is going to get much much worse.

My daughter may be going there this spring for deployment.

Tell her to stay on base as much as possible...

 

[joevol33]

Tell her to stay on base as much as possible...

Last time she said they didn't let them leave base. Hopefully it's the same this time.

Too many rufies going around the village for anyone to be safe.

Plus the Turks are a-holes.

Estimates Are Now Up to 20,000 Dead in Turkey Quake - 5,600 Buildings and Ancient Castles Collapsed

Holy Moly.....

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Damn. What an incredible amount of destruction.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Might be a good time to lift sanctions and allow more aid and assistance to get to Syria... just saying.

From family experience my suggestion would be never leave base if possible.

The tourist areas are safe enough but anything beyond that isn't safe, especially for Americans.
