OK, I think I can relax now. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center says that there have been four waves so far, and the largest wave so far has been five feet from peak to trough (2½ feet above normal sea level), in Kahului.
PTWC spokesman Gerard Fryer said that it’s starting to look like the evacuation may not have been needed, but they will not be calling it off just yet because it was called off too early after the Japan quake.
Definitely better safe than sorry when it comes to a tsunami, and the all-clear has not yet been given, but it looks like Hawaii is safe.
