5 W's report on tsunami


Last Friday a tsunami hit Japan and Western North America.  It affected people who live in those regions by flooding towns, crushing houses and apartment buildings.  There was a lot of devastation.  Some people died and some were lucky because they got the evacuation call early enough to leave.  It was caused by an earthquake underneath the Pacific Ocean.  The ground just flew up into a big mountain and the water followed it up.  When it dropped, it pushed the water out like an explosive, pushing waves into cities.  Stay tuned.
