firm from acapulco. we know when they say "long and strong," it is north of 30 seconds long and the longer it shakes the more damage they can do. this was a shallow earthquake. the depth is ten miles below the surface. that is considered to be relatively "shallow," as earthquakes go. and was this a roller or a shaker? a rolling series of waves? or did it hit like a hammer where you feel an initial blast that feel like an explosion and then a roll that follows? we do not have the details. but it is a junior and potentially very serious earthquake centered near an area where tens of thousands of americans are believed vacationing. it is spring break for many students across the united states. and for elementary and high schools in some parts of the country so families there, lots of college students. we expect to get reports shortly. people are canvassing the area with lots of folks leaving the buildings and construction workers checking the structure of the buildings and people at construction sites makin

and here's the acapulco mexico. we think it would insulate acapulco a little bit.expected here and into mexico city. quite a few miles away. this is the larnest, highest city literally in the world, almost 8,000 feet. and the shaking there would have certainly crumbled buildings. our cnn offices there. very long duration shaking too. >> we're now hearing that it was an earthquake. the way acapulco is shaped, is there a possibility of one of those gigantic waves, the tsunami type waves hitting the city? >> only if it was offshore and the sea surface floor moved. then a wave would have been generated, but from what i can tell, the earthquake was under land. so earthquakes do not generate tsunamis when they happen under land. they only happen when they're you should water and the sea surface floor moves. that doesn't mean that if you have a 7.9, if it's 20 miles inland, the sea floor didn't move a little bit. >> we are going to let everybody get in place on this story. we'll be right back after a quick break. >>> an earthquake has rocked acapulco administration co. --

so we're lucky that it hasn't struck acapulco which has all these high-rises. we know we had a big earthquake in an area of high risk, but we're optimistic that this is not going to be a real catastrophe. >> president obama's daughter was on a spring break trip with her classmates. she is fine and never in any danger. >>> we saw a mix of clouds and sup out there today. mostly cloudy conditions tomorrow. we'll time it out coming up. bay area ! here's big news from verizon wireless and xfinity from comcast. now get the xfinity triple play and verizon wireless together. call 855-704-7400 to sign up and get a free smartphone. choose one of our hottest phones. verizon wireless and xfinity. tv, home phone, internet and wireless together. look! here she comes! ♪ she'll be comin' 'round the mountain when she comes... ♪ ♪ when she comes. ♪ it'll be spinning new chrome wheels when it comes. ♪ ♪ when it comes. ♪ custom spoiler, race grade pistons, ♪ ♪ gt35 turbo charger. ♪ and they'll all know that it's kevin's awesome car. ♪ bought em!
