6 to 8 foot waves so far measured out on sensors but they will be rolling in non-stop for hours.

[Berlin_Freeper]

tsunami.

[freebirth]

Live blogging on CNN pretty up to date. Several dear friends in Hawaii for a conference are in hotels and keeping in touch on Facebook. Apparently there are no deep ocean markers to predict the size of the surge, how bad is anybody’s guess at this point.

[LeoWindhorse]

prediction = 5 ft. + in Kahalui Maui
Hilo = possible 2-3 ft +

expecting several sets of tsunami

[LeoWindhorse]

it’s coming from a different, not very well covered direction

They’re probably thinking “eight feet, no big deal.”

Not a normal wave, though. It just keeps coming, like sea level rose that much, for a fairly lengthy period of time compared to a normal wave.

They might end up regretting their sightseeing.

Do they have their surfboards?

Re: tourists at the beach. . .

Think of it as evolution in action. . . .

[Hunterb]

No surfboards probably just Mai Tai’s. LOL

[DoughtyOne]

Best cam I’ve seen so far. Thanks.

Watching for water retraction first... haven’t noticed any.

Superstorm Eastern Seaboard, Earthquake in Canada, Tsunami in Hawaii - does anyone else want to say what I’m thinking?

[Cvengr]

Seismic Energy patterns from the 7.7 quake along the western shore of British Columbia about 4 hrs ago.

[Fresh Wind]

I don’t wish ill on anyone living in Hawaii, but wouldn’t it be great if King Barry’s newly purchased palace got washed into the ocean?

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Yes. Nature happens.

It’s OK... hopefully a prison cell awaits him anyway.

[Dallas59]

[Update 4:35 a.m.] Hawaii News Now is showing live pictures of the coastline. Nothing seems out of the ordinary. Did Hawaii dodge a bullet? Or is it still too soon to tell?....

Im going back to bed.

[nolongerademocrat]

You don’t find it interesting that the places that are getting hit are Democratic strongholds? I do. G-d is still the ruler of this world and all that it contains.

[DoughtyOne]

Tsunami official on Hawaii

Ebb on one island up one foot and down three.

Expects later activity to be bigger. Says that’s what generally happens on Hawaii during tsunamis.

[Hunterb]

Halliburton’s natural disaster generation machine?

[RegulatorCountry]

People have been protected from many consequences of stupidity for going on two or even three generations now. If they’re culled it’ll just get humanity back a little closer to the mean.

[nolongerademocrat]

No, I mean warnings that generally give people an opportunity to make a choice. Make the right choice, the warnings pass, make the wrong choice and destruction follows.

[Hunterb]

This could go on for a couple more hours. Time to go nighty night.

Hilo, boats now resting on the sand. Water receded.

[djf]

Seriously? Am I reading that wrong?

30 meter differential? That’s more than 90 feet!

[DoughtyOne]

Water recede also noted at one other beach.

Specifics not available yet...

[Hunterb]

Maui too..
