A better live tv Hawaii video feed.. just under 30mins until the first waves are expected, thankful that it was during the day and they have had quite a few hours warning ; www.hawaiitsunami.com/

doesnt seem as bad as they expected, so far, in Hawaii it was more a series of fast ebb and flow surges of water going in and out in 20 minute long wave intervals.. but i think it depends on the coasts. Better to be safe that sorry though. Theres no actual 'surf'.

Just watched news update, Bondi's flat as

well sandgate is flatter than my sisters chest so.. no waves here!

sunny coast, like a pancake

Dude.. His sister's 11 years old..
