    It doesn't mention Hong Kong, but given the scale of the tsunami warning - as far as Hawaii and the Philippines - is there any chance of it impacting on Hong Kong? A tsunami down the harbour is not a nice thought.

    Im no expert, but we should be shielded by the Southeastern coast of China. Unless tsunamis learn how to make right turns.

    Taiwan is on the list in the tsunami warning (to hit betwee 5:30pm and 6pm today) so it can get there, but I imagine Taiwan itself would shelter Hong Kong.

    There seem to be a rash of earthquakes recently. That video of the supermarket was incredible.
