Yeah, luckily this is going to be basically a non-event.
The high shore will protect Hawaii in most places, so unless you are within 100 feet, you really aren’t going to be at risk for a puny 6’ tsunami.

There is nothing “puny” about a six foot tsunami. It is not like a surfable wave with a six foot face it is a six foot high wall of churning water that could push inland for a mile or more, even over land with higher elevation.

Ditto....but I'm a 6' elevation and 80' from the shore so I'm out of here soon.
It's been reported as waves and not a sea surge.
