No tsunami Hawaii. Maisy will be crazy.
Tsunami warning issues for the entire west coast too
I read in another source that the entire Pacific coast of Canada and the United States is under a tsunami alert.
Sitting in Navy Lodge at Yokosuka Navy base at the moment and alerts are going off like crazy. I was out for a walk near the water a while ago and it kicked up high over my neck. Cold and surprising.
