Earthquake update

Preliminary locations of larger aftershocks
following today's earthquake show that
approximately 1000 km of the plate boundary
slipped as a result of the earthquake.
Aftershocks are distributed along much of the
shallow plate boundary between northern Sumatra
(approximately 3 degrees north) to near Andaman
Island (at about 14 degrees north).

Seen here.

One report said that there were no reports from
the Maldives.

There never will be a report from the Maldives
because all human life is gone, swept to sea by
the tsunami.

Too bad. They were such beautiful little islands.

Edit:

It looks like I was wrong about the Maldives. That's
good news.

In the Maldives, where thousands of foreign
visitors were holidaying in the beach paradise,
damage appeared to be limited.
