A powerful earthquake strikes off the coast of Chile.
The quake, originally measured at 7.2, has reportedly been upgraded to 8.3.
“Widespread hazardous tsunami waves are possible”, warns the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center.
Copper is jumping:
The United States Geological Survey, using computer models, estimates that some 1.1 million people may have felt strong shaking as a result of the earthquake.
This includes about 54,000 people who may have experienced “very strong” shaking, and some 4,000 who may have experienced “severe” shaking.
The worst hit city would have been Illapel. Nearly 10 million others may have felt light to moderate shaking.
