The Philippines is still at alert level 1 but in current radio interview (DZMM, 8am, 28 February 2010) with Dr. Reynaldo Solidum of PHILVOCS, parts of the Philippines Batanes (north), Aurora, Cagayan, Isabela (northeastern), Camarines Sur and Leyte (southeastern) are on level 2.

In Mindanao, coastal areas of Surigao del Norte, Surigao del Sur, Davao Oriental, and Davao del Sur are on alert level 1*. So is Palawan.

Hawaii has lowered its tsunami alert.

This is how nature is in our view. It's always a step ahead. There's so much more to learn.
