Eastern Samar
"A magnitude 7.9 earthquake shook some parts of the Visayas, particularly Eastern Samar, at 8:47 p.m. Friday.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) reported in its website that the quake's epicenter was located at 112 kilometers east of Guiuan, Eastern Samar.
The quake's origin is tectonic and it has a depth of 10 kilometers.
It was also located at 175 kilometers northeast of Surigao, 187 kilometers east southeast of Tacloban, Leyte and 749 kilometers southeast of Manila, the US Geological Survey said in its latest bulletin.
The USGS issued a tsunami warning in the Philippines, as well as in Indonesia, Taiwan, Japan and Guam.
Phivolcs Director Renato Solidum advised residents in Surigao del Norte, Eastern Samar, Southern Leyte and Bicol to be on alert for possible aftershocks.
He also advised those living in coastal villages in these areas to evacuate due to the tsunami warning.
Southern Leyte Governor Damian Mercado said in a radio interview that he told all town mayors in the province to evacuate all families living in coastal areas. Evacuation is also ongoing in Eastern Samar and Surigao."

A place for everything, everything in its place.
My wife has just been chatting to her sister in Cavite and she wasn't aware that there had been an earthquake.She was teaching yesterday, so obviously no seismic shocks felt in the area.
She had only about 3 hours sleep as she was teaching between 7am and 6pm plus travelling time. Playing catchup from the disruption caused by the previous typhoon.
