Loading ...I am safe at home. 300 ft. elevation, 2.2miles inland. Traffic was gridlocked everywhere earlier, but now shorelines are empty. No traffic in Waikiki. Vertical evacuation above 4th floor on concrete hi rise buildings. Downtown flood zone in Hilo is empty, hams report.
Earlier I gassed up cans and both vehicles at first EQ notice, so avoided the rush. Civil defense sirens going off every half hour. Emergency alerts coming in to phones every few minutes. We await the first wave just minutes from now. I expect there will be some shoreline damage. Will report later as can. Aloha from Hawaii.
