Those poor folks are totally exposed to any tsunami headed their way and there is really no place to run. I wish them the best. [/quote] I'd be grateful there was high ground so close. This last quake looks like it might have been centred in those mountains though (going by USGS) [/quote] it was about two miles from the beach, just S. of Iquique in what looks to be the foothills location on Google maps: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=-20.4002+-70.1346(M7.6++-+19km+S+of+Iquique,+Chile+-+2014-04-03+02:43:17+UTC)&ll=-20.4002,-70.1346&spn=2,2&f=d&t=h [/quote] Looks like is was right on a steep slope. Hope there was no landslide. [/quote]
