Found a website that shows b4 and after pics. Grab the blue marker in the middle of the pic and you can shuffle thru.

I stumbled upon this article on Gizmodo:
http://gizmodo.com/#!5781566/this-is-the-scariest-first+person-video-of-the-japan-tsunami-yet

It shows a 6-minute video. When the video starts, the streets are drie. After a few moments, the first few centimeters of water crawl over the streets.
At the end of the video, the water is at least 2 meters high and literally taking whole buildings with it.
It's a must-watch.

This ("http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=kesennuma&aq=&sll=38.277809,141.015701&sspn=0.102146,0.191574&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Kesennuma,+Miyagi+Prefecture,+Japan&ll=38.899016,141.578236&spn=0.005928,0.025685&t=h&z=16&layer=c&cbll=38.899021,141.578228&panoid=ZU--NQExOOwqoysPg7ax4Q&cbp=11,25.32,,0,7.56) is the exact location the video was taken. Just look at the store with the white front, red symbols and blue sign. It's a good reference for the height of the water (pause at 5:45, it's on the left side of the screen. The whole first floor is submerged!)
