Aloha!! They just cancelled the Tsunami warning from 3300 miles away. They must have calculated the wave energy from the available formulas and panicked in embarrassment.
We were on Maui in 1986 when a tsunami warning was issued. We had to evacuate our hotel taking only our airline tickets and wallets. We sat high up in the sugar cane fields, for hours, while being told that all of the hotels would probably be gone when the tsunami hit. My son thought this was the coolest thing ever. After a few hours the warning was cancelled and we were led back to our hotels. Don’t think we weren’t nervous all night wondering if they were correct.
My 41 year old son still has the t-shirt that reads “I survived the tsunami of 1986”.
