On phone with parents in Maui, I'm telling them to move inland. They are on vacation...

Hawaii is in the Pacific Ocean, I think.

Looks like there has been something, but when you click on the Hawaii map thumbnail, the bigger map it brings up has nothing recent.

6.5 on the West of Hawaii. No tsunami for the US West Coast. I don't know about near Hawaii.

Yea, I am in Hilo and felt it. It felt like the 198 Loma Prieta in California. Per the USGS is was only a 4.6 but I think that will be upped. A second one about 15 minutes later but much smaller and the USGS has it at 4.9. Go figure. We have hairline cracks in our patio and some things on shelves rattled but not a lot of damage. Went on for what seemed a long time though.

Does anyone know anything?

"In any right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side of a right triangle opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (i.e. the two sides other than the hypotenuse)."

(did he say how big it felt? Also, if he felt it there is probably little Tsunami danger)

Hang on and good luck! Watched that darned Tsunami thing last night on DSC and that is the first thing I thought of.

USGS has it pegged as a 4.6 (light). But it shook here in Hilo a good 30 secconds. Looks like it was felt across the state - my sister said the lights are out in Honolulu.

Had a smaller after shock of about 10 seconds. TV stations are on the air, but can't make some cell calls. Don't hear any sirens, but it scared the crap out of my cats....

God help them - it's a 6.7...

Prayers for everyone in Hawaii now. May they be safe...

Maui has an excellent tsunami warning system. If there was a danger, they'd be hearing sirens.
