Was bound to happen?

Seems like another extreme overreacting driver using their car as a lethal weapon, on purpose, TWICE:
What they're saying:

But Lori Costello, Jesse's mom, said that wasn't the first time the driver tried to hit her son.

According to Lori, this all started at a red light. She said that the driver of the red car stopped to flirt with a woman who was waiting at the light. When the light turned green, and the red car didn't move, Lori said her son tapped the bumper to get the driver's attention. The driver didn't like that.

"He got upset and did a burnout and took off and turned around," Lori Costello said. "And my son was crossing the street when the guy came and tried to hit him from behind first."

Jesse was able to get out of the way the first time, and the second time, despite being thrown from his bike, Jesse was able to avoid major injuries. He had some bruised ribs and a swollen knee from slamming into the car.
 
Wait. 40 cm is 15 inches. Those folks evacuated for that? Well, almost 29K Japanese drowned in the last one. I guess I might listen.

You can get a small tsunami that precedes a larger one, depending on the specifics of the shock that caused it (location, other places it can bounce off of, direction, subsea terrain, etc.

And a small one can precede a larger one becuase an aftershock at the original location or near to it caused by the original quake could trigger a larger tsunami.

(sorry, got distracted by jellybeantheperfectlynormalschmoo or would've hit post a few hours ago).
 
I got to climb Mt. Whitney with my dad when I was ten years old. Had to camp overnight at Mirror Lake because of altitude sickness. Felt better in the morning and made it to the top and back down to the car park that afternoon. Fighter jets showing off in the bowl where you can look over the edge of a >1,000 foot cliff at a notch by the trail with the wind gusts at your back and an unlimited view at the summit.
