They are sharing so much interesting technical information on CNN. They are explaining that an 8.0 earthquake is 32 times stronger than a 7.0 (Haiti) and then a 9.0 is another 32 times stronger than that. This was not quite a 9.0, but was almost 1000 times stronger than the Haiti earthquake.
They also just showed a scary graphic showing the release of energy leading to this wave that is expected to hit Hawaii. Stronger than the bomb on Hiroshima. They were also saying that the wave won't just hit one side of an island, it can wrap around the island and is often WORSE on the opposite side.
This is truly a devastating event that isn't over yet.
