Kiraan terbaru melangkaui kiraan awal dan menjadi rekod yang tidak diingini oleh mana-mana negara pun. Kalau ketinggian sama landa Malaysia? Kelang hapus langsung agaknya. Melaka dan Port Dickson juga sama. Pulau Pinang? Bagaimana pula Pantai Timur? Huh. Ngeri membayangkannya. Semoga bala Allah sebegitu tidak sampai ke bumi bertuah ini.
March 11th tsunami a record 40-meters high
Japan's Meteorological Agency and researchers have found that the tsunami of March 11th reached heights of up to 40 meters.
The precise height of the waves was not clear because automatic tide-gauge stations were destroyed and blackouts and communication failures occurred at the time of the disaster.
Experts have looked into traces of each tsunami in the affected area and found that around 10-meter waves reached wide areas of Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima Prefectures.
They also found tsunami reached up to 40.5 meters in Miyako City in Iwate Prefecture, 37.8 meters in Noda village also in Iwate Prefecture, and 34.7 meters in Onagawa town in Miyagi prefecture.
Based on the collected data, researchers are now working on discovering how the giant tsunami was triggered.
