I assume the water would slow the descent of any meteors from the sky? Plus they do not weigh as much in water.

Read the Message again. It says "the largest earthquake ever", or some such. If you know how water reacts to shockwaves, especially at high pressure, you can imagine that deep sea dwellers might suffer horribly if the very foundation of the world trembles. Plus volcanic rifts could open up, spewing out steam and caustic gases.
Though I agree, if the effect were only half as terrible in terms of poploss, it would still be rather powerful, and would place it more in the realms of useful to someone who intends to chain cast (at great expense), rather than just alchemizing what you have left on the turn you go AI.
