This article seems to indicate the tsunamis are even smaller than reported:

“The temblor generated three separate tsunami waves that are spreading, the largest of which measures 5.1 feet from sea level height, said Vindell Hsu, a geophysicist with the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Ewa Beach, Hawaii. Preliminary data had originally reported a larger tsunami.”

Looks like this may not be that bad after all compared to the 15-20 foot reports earlier.

A tsunami caused by a powerful earthquake off Samoa will not threaten Australia, the Bureau of Meteorology and Geoscience Australia say.
