Click to Enlarge

[FINAL UPDATE: This was a very small tsunami. All is well here. For those interested, here is an article about the tsunami from the Honolulu Star Advertiser]
[UPDATE 2244 HST: Tsunami sirens are now blazing continuously... they do that when the waves are expected to come in. Not the best time to try to go to sleep... and I live about 200 yards from the nearest siren... Darn Sirens!! (I like the telepathic ones... a lot quieter)]
[UPDATE 2049 HST: Tsunami sirens are going off.]

This may be a result of energies from the Sedona Blast.

Never thought I’d use the blog for this. Just to get the word out, there was a 7.7 magnitude earthquake in the ocean off the coast of British Columbia, Canada. So there is a tsunami warning. Please check your local news for warnings in your area.

So far, in Hawaii, local news station states that wave heights may reach 5 ft in Kahului, 4 feet in Hilo, Haleiwa, 1.5 ft., Hanalei 2.5 ft., Kawaihae 2 ft. From KHON2 News.

[Note... for those concerned about me (mahalo for that) I live at 800 ft. elevation, so no problems for us here.]
