re: "A tsunami caused damage in the Crescent City harbor this afternoon, but apparently no injuries, according to initial reports from the newsroom at the Daily Triplicate in Crescent City. /The wave was reported by national authorities as 35 inches, larger than any other reports on the Pacific Coast of the U.S., according to the National Weather Service Tsunami Warning Center's Web site. The reported height at Port Orford was 15 inches. The Web site is available at http://WCATWC.ARH.NOAA.GOV /Witnesses said boats were broken loose from their moorings, rammed into docks and even toppled onto each other. /No reports of initial damage were reported in the Port of Brookings-Harbor, Gold Beach or Port Orford. There were no warnings or evacuations in Curry County, according to the Curry County Sheriff's Office. /Brookings-Harbor Harbormaster Mike Blank said he noticed "unusual tidal occurences" just after 2 p.m., but had no reports of any damage or problems caused by the wave. /The wave was generated by an earthquake overnight near the Kuril Islands, off the northern coast of Japan. /The Triplicate is preparing a full report for its Web site, www.Triplicate.com, later this evening. A full report and photos will be published in the Thursday, Nov. 17, edition of the Triplicate and the Saturday, Nov. 18, edition of the Curry Coastal Pilot..."...
