The Tsunami is big enough to be dangerous but seems not to be too major :
It wasn't anything. Stood on the cliff above Pipeline (famous surf spot) and couldn't tell if the water washing up the beach was normal winter surf or a tsunami. Other parts of the island may have seen more, though. Resonance is everything with these types of waves. Many cables land at Kahe on the west side of Oahu and Kawaihae on the Big Island, the opposite side of the islands from the direction of the wave. No calls from the NOC, so no trouble AFAIK... ;-) scott
