Since there was a PTWC advisory & there wad damage - in an area that has a lot of night boating, fishing & even opihi hunting... perhaps the call should have been to issue the ADVISORY .... with all of what that is... most boaters do check things like that, as do many fishing & opihi hunters... it is one of those things you are on the watch for...
For those that lived through the spring 2009 tsunami alert with hours of alarms... for a very less damaging wave (that one mainly hit fishponds gates) I really do feel a little warning for naught is better than no warning for actual damaging waves...
Obviously the one who made the call not to issue the advisory until after the first wave was in error...
Again, maybe our CD is now in disaster overload...
