This whole tsunami bit is getting really tiresome, especially when it never happens. Don't get me wrong its good to be prepared for the worst, but I wasn't expecting too much. Since last year on February 27th there was a tsunami warning because of the devastating earthquake in Chile, although there wasn't much of a tsunami at all the water simply receded then came back to where it was before. Last night, or this morning rather, the tsunami did recede and come back with a little something extra. There were some damage to boats and docks but nothing really more than that. The waves were estimated to be about 2 meters high (6ft) but if anything they were only 1 meter (3ft). Its a good thing that we didn't experience anything devastating the way Japan did. My prays go out to those in Japan right now.
The local news stayed on it the entire night and right on for you guys because I couldn't make it past 5am! I was way too tired! Really hope all this clears up soon and that i can go out. I really don't like sitting at home. Although if this tsunami is that serious my apartment is the safest place I can be as of right now.
Be safe out there Hawaii, Pray for those who are suffering the brunt end of this terrifying natural disaster, and I'll keep and eye out for those on the west coast. Be safe everyone!
