Magnitude 7.8 - occurred a couple of hours ago.

It is difficult to find news, google 'latest' search overcome by pretty much useless twittering about the fact.

No info yet on casualties, or tsunami potential.

Looks like it will have potentail for great casualties. They had a 6.something last week in pretty much the same region.
