Today, Tuesday night, 4 days after the earthquake, we come to know the real consequences of this huge quake and everybody knows that the number of victims and damages is much higher than initially supposed by the national authorities. Those who survived will have to restart their lives with the pain about all the people they are missing and with nothing in their hands. Help is getting quiet slowly to the people.
Meanwhile, Santiago's international airport Arturo Merino Benitez, is starting again to operate, partially only. Some few buses connect again with the south of the country but still no buses connect with Concepción. Many chilean people start travelling now in order to help their families and friends in the most devasted areas and bus tickets should be reserved for them and anybody who needs most urgently to travel. |

We had an earthquake on * Saturday, February 27, 2010 at 06:34:14 UTC * Saturday, February 27, 2010 at 03:34:14 AM at epicenter Location 35.846°S, 72.719°W Depth 35 km (21.7 miles) set by location program Region OFFSHORE MAULE, CHILE of 8.8 magnitude. This is about 700 km north of our location. Most damaged regions are region 7,8, and 9 as well as Chile's capital city, Santiago. Locally, there have not been registered significant damages, but the strong movements were quite scaring. For travelers it is important to know that Santiago Airport is closed for today, February 27, 2010 as its infrastructure is quiet damaged. Furthermore, there is still no bus connection to or from Santiago to the south, as there are some bridges missing on the highway and in some parts the highway's underground is damaged. There is still no complete information about the most affected regions. We are sad about all the victims and are hoping that there will be no more. Good luck for everybody!! |
