Tsunami Alert - Friday 2/26/10

[Hotzcatz]

The Hilo Tsunami museum webcam was pointed at the sky before the site was too jammed to see it, so even if you would have been able to log on, it wouldn't have shown much. BJ Penn's website had a live web cam stream of someone carrying a video camera around. Hawaii News Now website had a nice webcam for awhile which had the Coconut island webcam. Great video coverage of the tsunami so we didn't have to go out to look at it.

There is still a lot of ebb and flow in and out of Hilo bay, but they seem to be downgrading the tsunami and things look like they will be back to normal by later today. I don't think there will be much damage unless things are extremely low lying. I wouldn't be surprised if there are new ocean channels cut in and around shore, but it doesn't look like any buildings will be damaged.
