Saturday February 27th - Tsunami Warning

Nosara Costa Rica Surf Report

Good Morning Everyone,

There was a massive earthquake in Chile & now there is a Tsunami alert for most of the Pacific. There are clean chest high waves here in Nosara as you can see in the video report. However, according to the National Weather Service's latest warning issued:

TSUNAMI BULLETIN NUMBER 007
PACIFIC TSUNAMI WARNING CENTER/NOAA/NWS
ISSUED AT 1249Z 27 FEB 2010

COSTA RICA
CABO MATAPALO 8.4N 83.3W 1344Z 27 FEB
PUERTO QUEPOS 9.4N 84.2W 1417Z 27 FEB
CABO SAN ELENA 10.9N 86.0W 1452Z 27 FEB

This basically means it is a very good idea to get away from the beach this morning, especially between & 7:30am and 10:00am.

Hopefully there is absolutely nothing that happens but it is better safe than sorry.

There are some waves out there & people surfing. James will get up some great photos a little bit later in the morning.
