You don't watch "Red Eye", do you...LOL (running joke, Hawaii is a country outside the US)
The region in which I work is Alaska/Western US and BC
My message says that the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center at Ewa Beach Hawaii will issue messages for Hawaii and other areas of the Pacific outside Ca/Or/Wa/BC and AK
I don't get those reports
I usually see terms like continental US when Hawaii is excluded. Being in Oceanside CA,7 blocks form the beach, I pay attention to these things. However, we are up the hill at about 140’ above sea level.
