How Indonesia's tsunami warning system failed its citizens againMany of the hundreds of people who died when a tsunami struck the Indonesian coast on Saturday night were nowhere near shelter -- because they had no idea it was coming CBS news said a warning system would have given them maybe 10 minutes notice before it hit...🤷🏾‍♂️ Very harsh. A slump-induced wave, at night, is something that happens unobserved, quietly and suddenly. In a quite narrow channel, there really could have been little effective warning. Send us pray please🙏😞
