MEASUREMENTS AT SIMILAR LOCATIONS.
EVALUATION
TSUNAMI WAVES ARE NOW IMPACTING THE STATE OF HAWAII. URGENT
ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN TO PROTECT LIVES AND PROPERTY.
A TSUNAMI IS A SERIES OF LONG OCEAN WAVES. EACH INDIVIDUAL WAVE
CREST CAN LAST 5 TO 15 MINUTES OR MORE AND EXTENSIVELY FLOOD
COASTAL AREAS. THE DANGER MAY PERSIST FOR MANY MORE HOURS AS
WAVES ACTIVITY CONTINUES. TSUNAMI WAVES EFFICIENTLY WRAP AROUND
ISLANDS SO ALL SHORES ARE AT RISK NO MATTER WHICH DIRECTION THEY
FACE. THE TROUGH OF A TSUNAMI WAVE MAY TEMPORARILY EXPOSE THE
SEAFLOOR BUT THE AREA WILL QUICKLY FLOOD AGAIN. EXTREMELY STRONG
AND UNUSUAL NEARSHORE CURRENTS CAN ACCOMPANY A TSUNAMI. DEBRIS
PICKED UP AND CARRIED BY A TSUNAMI AMPLIFIES ITS DESTRUCTIVE
POWER. SIMULTANEOUS HIGH TIDES OR HIGH SURF CAN SIGNIFICANTLY
INCREASE THE TSUNAMI HAZARD.
FURTHER MESSAGES WILL BE ISSUED HOURLY OR SOONER AS CONDITIONS
WARRANT UNTIL THE THREAT TO HAWAII HAS PASSED.
