Thailand was next. With waves traveling 500 mph across the Indian Ocean, the tsunami hit the coastal provinces of Phang Nga and Phuket an hour and a half later. Despite the time lapse, locals and tourists were caught completely unaware of the imminent destruction. Curious beachgoers even wandered out among the oddly receding waves, only to be chased down by a churning wall of water. The death toll in Thailand was nearly 5,400 including 2,000 foreign tourists.
An hour later, on the opposite side of the Indian Ocean, the waves struck the southeastern coast of India near the city of Chennai, pushing debris-choked water kilometers inland and killing more than 10,000 people, mostly women and children, since many of the men were out fishing. But some of the worst devastation was reserved for the island nation of Sri Lanka, where more than 30,000 people were swept away by the waves and hundreds of thousands left homeless.

How often do we complain about the weather! Sometimes it is so hot that it is impossible to move.
What if the weather changes every minute? At such moments, life becomes more difficult. It is cold, it is hot, then it started raining! In general, the weather can be different, but the mood does not depend on it.
Как часто мы жалуемся на погоду! Иногда бывает так жарко, что невозможно двигаться.
А что если погода будет меняться каждую минуту? В такие моменты жить становить труднее.То холодно, то жарко, то вообще дождь пошёл!Как угадать что одеть? А вообще погода может быть различной, но настроение не должно зависеть от нее.
