Nightmares...

Travel-time contours for the Boxing Day tsunami. The source zone is roughly constrained by the tsunami arrival times at the Vishakapatnam and Cocos Islands tide gauges. (the latter is indicated by the magenta inverted triangle southwest of Indonesia). Contours are at 15-minute intervals, and alternate colour every hour.

Two years ... feels like yesterday. What horrors await the world today?

I do hope you and yours are safe and sound. Have a good one:
