Two buoys in tsunami event mode:

Station 21415 (LLNR 984.85) - ATTU - 175 NM South of Attu, AK

Event details: [link to www.ndbc.noaa.gov]

Station 21416 - KAMCHATKA PENINSULA -240NM SE of Kamchatka Peninsula, RU

Event details: [link to www.ndbc.noaa.gov]

I wondered yesterday if 21415 was going to have company. There's my answer.

[21415 line is busy, I would guess due to maritime traffic calls. Will try ringing 21416 later.]

Thanks Haun

QUADRANTID METEOR SHOWER: Today, Jan. 4th, Earth is moving through a stream of debris from shattered comet 2003 EH1, source of the annual Quadrantid meteor shower. So far, there have been few reports of visual sightings--perhaps a result of cloudy winter weather in the northern hemisphere. Canada's Meteor Orbit Radar (CMOR) can see through the clouds, and radar maps show the shower is active.
