Anonymous Coward User ID: 824370 Canada 02/27/2010 08:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Earlier, the center had issued a Pacific-wide tsunami warning that included Hawaii and stretched across the ocean from South America to the Pacific Rim. The warnings followed a massive earthquake in Chile that killed at least 76 people and triggered tsunamis up and down the coast of the earthquake-prone country. The center estimated the first tsunami wave would hit Hawaii at 11:19 a.m. Hawaii time (4 a.m. EST). Waves up to 16 feet could hit the coast, center officials said. "A tsunami is a series of long ocean waves. A wave crest can last 5 to 15 minutes or more and extensively flood coastal areas," the center said. |
