Wow, this is big/bad news! The earthquake was centered off Sumatra on the same fault line as the December 26 temblor it turns out. It also looks like it was underwater again, so a Tsunami is bound to happen. Maybe a few inches or many feet depending on how much the fault line moved.

The U.S. Geological Survey reported that an instrument near the Cocos Islands recorded the passing wave, but the magnitude of the "small" tsunami was not clear.
The agency said no major tsunami has been observed near epicenter of the earthquake which was upgraded from a magnitude of 8.2 to 8.7. An aftershock measuring 6.0 struck 30 minutes after the initial quake.

No kidding...I don't think that area can handle much more death and destruction! My heart goes out to those people -- I can't imagine what they've been put through already!
