Live coverage of Tsunami coming to Hawaii
what earthquake???
My friend’s sister and her family are currently in Hawaii on vacation(Not sure what part) but all of Hawaii is currently under a tsunami warning so hopefully everyone is safe
Mag. 8.7 earthquake off the coast of Kamchatka, the Russian peninsula. It’s a major volcanic/earthquake zone so not a surprise, but this is a big quake so prayers up that it doesn’t do much damage.
8.7 off Russia....

Tsunami hits Russia’s Kuril Islands

Only 12 miles deep. Considered pretty shallow, which makes it more damaging if on land, and more likely to cause a tsunami if in the sea.
Note: going to link it was impossible to go back
Back function was apparently locked up by gov website
Have never seen that
hopefully Hawaii can handle a tsunami better than a brush fire
I suppose if they had happened at the same time, the tsunami could have put out the brush fire.
Praying for everyone there!
I remember the fake news being all set up last time, than palpable disappointment when no big wave hit.
I am 500 feet up and a mile back, so will just watch if the light holds out after 1900 .
Your handle is apropos...
We were on Maui in 1986 when we were hit with a tsunami warning . Our hotel was evacuated and we were told to only take our valuables. We were led across the street into the sugar cane fields. We sat there for hours with helicopters circling and we were told that most of the hotels would be destroyed.
There was a ripple in Honolulu Harbor and they called all clear.
We remained a little unsettled for awhile but it was a unique experience.
Where are you at?
