Utterly amazing. Utterly unimaginable. Does just break your heart.
I was watching a news-clip tonite of one town where they were showing a Tsunami warning sign, still standing, that marked the point to which any water encroachment from a tsunami would not go beyond. The safe zone so to speak. The water went 1 mile past that marker per the commentary.

Unbelievable Bear...thanks for the link.
If you slide the middle bar to the right first to see the before shots, and then to the left, what really pops out is the beach erosion.
Jaw dropping stuff.
