Really sad - low lying islands are taking a battering + Indonesia had an earthquake and the Phillipines flooded with ridiculous rainfall. Ironically India has a drought.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 30 (Xinhua) -- The U.S. state of California has been put on high alert for possible tsunami, authorities said on Wednesday.
A tsunami advisory has been issued for the Southern California coast because of a magnitude-8.0 earthquake in the South Pacific near American Samoa.
An inundation of 1 foot to 1.5 feet was expected to hit Los Angeles County and could last at least two hours, according to Curt Kaplan of the National Weather Service.
The U.S. Coast Guard warned the public to move out of the water, off the beach and out of harbors and marinas. Mandatory evacuations have not been ordered.
Tsunamis are potentially dangerous for several hours after initial arrival.(((( }-d|-__-|b-{ ))))
