BANGKOK (NNT) -- The Meteorological Department warns people not to panic about a speculation of an impending powerful earthquake and tsunami, which may hit Thailand tomorrow.
The Meteorological Department yesterday announced that none of the disaster-monitoring centers worldwide had issued any warning about a major quake which, as rumored, would occur on 12 June 2010. The statement said that no one could predict as to where or when an earthquake would take place.
The Meteorological Department assured that a quake, if occurring in the Andaman Sea, would have little impacts on Thailand. A tsunami, if occurring in the Pacific, can only be caused by the movement of the underwater fault line lying west of the Philippines. In that case, it would take around 14 hours for a massive wave to travel over thousands of kilometers before reaching Thailand.
The quake rumor spreading on the Internet has caused quite a stir among the public. It warned people not to travel to the seaside and to expect a major quake and giant waves to hit Thailand this weekend.

Some voodoo going on here. There was indeed a 7.6 quake the night of June 12 and a tsunami warning which has now been downgraded for everywhere here except India. Maybe these people know their stuff concerning planet alignment.![]()
