okay, so at 12:30 pm. one hour after it was supposed to hit Oahu, the warning was lifted slightly as the waves barely had reached HIlo, with heights of about 3 feet, creating a little flood there
about 1 p.m. people were starting to go back on the freeways and the news coverage was waning down,
but basically, the locals here were pretty calm throughout the whole thing, with a few 'tsunami parties' on the rooftops of condos, yes people here are more concerned about beer and pizza than batteries and candles,

the alert is over n ow as far as I know, but if there are more violent quakes in Chile, we may get more warnings, not sure

Glad to hear you and the island are ok. Don't be a stranger.
All the best,

That's climate change.... and we don't want to face it.

You and Al Gore can take your climate change and discuss it elsewhere.

Why should I??? Ain't this a proper topic to post it??? Nowadays, climate is being quite strante... tsunamis, lots of rain, lots of wind, lots of heat, glaciars melting at an incredible speed, icebergs from Antartida spreading around the world.... This is a big thing and if we keep up our consumtion, wasting like this... be sure that in a few years time wars will be for food and water.

I'm certainly no expert on geology or global warming, but I'm pretty sure temperature change, even if it were to be caused by humans, has nothing to do with the shifting of the Earth's plates.
Earthquakes and tsunamis come from below our feet, not above our heads.

Truer words have not been spoken regarding this topic. Well said, Bear.

p.s. Still glad that Kelley and the rest of Hawaii didn't get hit hard....

This presents a perfect tangent for the HAARP project discussion on Scalar Electromagnetic Lazar technology and its ability to create earthquakes at magnitudes beyond most naturally occuring quakes!
stanford university on electro polarity of shifting plates "Stanford electrical engineering graduate student Alexandr Draganov has suggested that ground water carries an electrical current as it pushes through faults and cracks in the earth. Panayiotis Varotsos of Athens University believes rock on one side of a fault conducts electricity differently than rock on the other. When land masses with different conductivities slide past each other, Varotsos said, friction releases electricity."
The American Geophysical Union has used search-coil magnometers across california for prediction but Alaskan HAARP technology has created the false front that their classified technology is a new ULF sensing science.

Quite true Bear, but the strenght of Tsunamis can be also caused by the melting ice, which puts more water back into the water. Typhons are related to wind and water, but the higher the temperature is, the stronger it is, so it's directly connected to our actions. I'm just guessing, not saying it's 100% true or untrue, but as a general message, with should try to preserve a little bit more what we have.

tsunami: - 1. large ocean wave: a large destructive ocean wave caused by an underwater earthquake or another movement of the Earth's surface
typhoon - 1. tropical storm: a violent tropical storm in the western Pacific and Indian oceans
They are not the same thing. By my understanding, a typhoon is the same as a hurricane, the only difference being that it's called a hurricane if it happens in the Atlantic Ocean. But neither a typhoon or a hurricane is caused by earthquakes - that would be a tsunami.
