After the 8.8 earthquake hit Chile last night, now Hawaii is under a high level Tsunami warning. How very scary for them. Lets all keep this state in prayer and hope for the best...that it will not be a huge wave coming in. The one that hit in 1964 was smaller because of the area of the originating earthquake...up north along the Alaska front. This earthquake of last night originated in Chile, much more on an even plane with Hawaii. Lets hope the result isn't a horrible event.
And if it poops out before it gets there..awesome, but at least we as a country will have been praying for each other. That's gotta count for something!

My co-workers daughter and family are stationed at Pearl Harbor
Caron, my co-worker, is very concerned about her daughter and grand kids. I read the news here on BDW and told Caron about the warnings.
Ok, the boat is nixed from the prayer list....
But I will be praying for the safety of your dad. I, too, hope this will be a non-event.

will keep your Dad in my thoughts
that has got to be pretty scary for him
you can always count on the news on BDW.
will keep your Dad in my thoughts
Well, forget the boat
It was kind of funny when he asked where i heard the news and I told him BDW. He laughed at that one. He feels that the wave will lose it's power as so many have by the time it reaches them. But he did say that the island is treating this warning very serious.
Many, many prayers for your dad and his boat:-)
Seriously though, I will sincerely be praying for his safety. Scary stuff indeed.

First of all, BDW is where I get my news..Tsunami Update
I called my Dad and family who lives in kauai. He said they have had warnings before, but this is the real deal. Everyone got reverse 911 calls at 4:45 and the wave is set to hit at 11:30 his time. While on the phone I could hear the sirens. My dad went down to tie up his boat extra extra good. He said they could get a wave from 10-131 fet. The cruise ships had to fuel up and leave at 6 a.m and the little town of Hanalei which is next to my dad is being evacuated up to his town.
My dad didn't seem worried and he is more worried about his boat than anything. He said that in Oahu guests in Honolulu are asked to go to higher floors.
To keep it Bullie related
I'm wondering if my former house will get hit..
It's on the East side of Oahu on the beach. We always worried about hearing those sirens and having to evacuate.
I don't rescue animals because I want to feel better about myself, or morally superior to anyone. The best part of my life with animals is the humility they teach and the humanity the foster.
