Earthquake - 7.0 Magnitude in Haiti

[hammerdown]

Yes I felt it, thought I was drunk though, but it was felt in Sosua in Los Cerros

Supposedly there are massive destruction in Haiti, at least that's what was just said in the news.

There are tsunami warnings for the coasts of Haiti, Dominican Republic, Cuba and Jamaica.

Rather large.

Surprised CNN had it.

Early feedback looks like a magnitude 6 or 7 in haiti

They just said on TV it has been a magnitude of 7.something in the west part of Haiti

BBC News - Haiti rocked by powerful 7.3 earthquake

BBC News - Haiti rocked by powerful 7.3 earthquake

Didn't feel a thing here in Punta Cana and we're on the 4th floor.

 

[jalencastro]

Friends of mine in Santo Domingo said they felt nothing....nevertheless I hope everyone is ok and keep us posted!

7.0 According to USGS...But imagine a 7 is 10 times a 6 and the 6 we had on Sept 22 a few years ago collapsed several buildings in POP and damaged a lot around the country.

CNN says 3 story hospital collapsed. Haitian population lives along coast.
