seanocasey Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Do they still have that Tsunami warning system on Phuket? I think I remember reading it a few years ago that it was now being used for prayer calls or something.... as far as i remember the batteries ran out and no funds were available to replace them.

steelepulse Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 I was at Kata yesterday and there were some waves that I would think came from the quake. Surf in February is pretty rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenl Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 There are some waves at the moment because we have unseasonably strong winds. Nothing to do with a tsunami. And the warning system is operational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
