There was an earthquake in Chile yesterday morning which was much stronger than the one in Haiti but occurred much lower in the ground and in a less populated area so not much damage compared to Haiti
The earthquake caused a tidal wave coming from South America and a 3m wave was projected to hit Hawaii at 9.20pm last night. Sky News were running live cameras for quite a while whilst various cameras were set up online. Loads of 'hype' on CNN News too. A lot of people were watching it to see the wave when it came in. The sea level rose 3 feet.
