Title: Tsunami -- Not again!
Post by: pellius on March 11, 2011, 01:17:55 AM
Another Tsunami watch. It's schedule to hit by 3:00 am Hawaii time. This one I'm taking more seriously and heading to higher ground around 2-2:00 am.

The area that I live is below sea level so I do plan to evacuate. Did you suffer any damage?

No i am fine, some books fell out of the shelf.

I am really lucky, but here in Tokyo the damage seems rather low.

Better safe than sorry, evacuate and come back when you know it's ok.

Yeah, my friends who are vacationing there were being evacuated about an hour ago.  They said the emergency broadcast kept playing.  Never been there but always wanted to go.  Would love to live at the Masters estate with my two dobermans.  They would patrol the grounds while I swim in the tidal pool and rub elbows with Dog the Bounty Hunter.

I'm right on the shore line. I can literally throw a rock and hit the ocean. And my area is below sea level. Right now I'm just packing and trying to protect some things in the house. Wrapping stuff in big garbage bags. It's projected to be about 6 feet. That's not like a six foot wave but the ocean rising 6 feet as it makes it's way to the shore. The upstairs will be OK but downstairs will be soaked.

Make sure to save as much as possible, i wish the best to you, and be safe.

I have seen pics of cars and whole houses getting whirled around by the tsunami here in Japan, so make sure you are as safe as possible when it hits you.

I'm standing right on the shore and can't see shit. It's just pitch black out here and because the sky is covered with clouds (it's been raining) no moon light either. Just total darkness. If it was day light I could be 50 yards out and see the ocean rising and hop in my truck and head to my sister's who lives in the mountains about a 1/4 mile from me.

On the other side, I remember when I was in Okinawa, Japan was hit by another earthquake. I watched video after Video of people cleaning up their yards while their neighbors were still trapped in the rubble. The detachment they had for their fellow human beings was shocking. But to give credit... they did seem very calm while ignoring the cries for help.. and they didn't loot

wtf with the guys head?

Some random guy coming out of the mens' room (in the background).  >:(
It is more of an "adventure" than the other islands and way cool (lava, etc.) but it's probably my least favorite of the islands.  In this pic people gather on dry lava, watching fresh lava flow!  Again, pretty cool.

We'll it's about 6:50 am here in Oahu and looks like we dodge another bullet though we're still under alert. I decided to brave it again but this more cautious. I had a good vantage point from my sister's who is on a mountain. I decided to drive down near Kahaluu Elementary school. I sat in my truck at the corner of Waihee/Kamehameha. Right across the street is the ocean. There was some receding of the ocean but nothing alarming. Hope to get pics but it was too dark. Just the street sign and the ocean which shows nothing.

Anyway, dead tired. Took off work today which pretty much everybody did. Even State employees since it's "furlough Fridays." Every other Friday all State employees except essential like police and fire fighters get the day off to save money. For me it means the school kids are out prowling around.

Glad your OK DK. Japan really got hit hard.

Pellius,

I lived in Hawaii for a good long time and can recall about five or six tsunami warnings and the sirens warning eveyone to seek higher ground.

They weren't immediate warning but one such warning came while I was in the Ala Moana Shopping Center and they told us that we had about three hours until a possible tsunami hit that side of the island.

I immediately left Liberty House and started walking into Waikiki because the traffic was already at a complete standstill.

Some official told me to go back to the 2nd floor parking structure but I was determined to get into Waikiki to check on a very old relative who lived directly behind the International Marketplace.

By the time I reached Kuhio Avenue, it was a madhouse with stalled traffic and abandoned cars everywhere.

But instead of a panic, there appeared to be a party  like atmosphere.

But still there were people stuck in cars with little kids; so I'd stick my head into the window and advised them to leave the car and go to one of the higher floors in any of the surrounding hotels or condos.

The folks with kids did that but the party revelers mostly said, "Shut up! Do you know if we can buy any beer around here?"

And a lot of those people left their cars and grabbed their surfboard and started heading to the beach to wait for the big one.

The big one did eventually arrive but it was somewhat like a very wide and very deep rolling wave .... kind of like a high tide with a super swift arrival.

It rolled over Waikiki Beach and into the beach front hotel parking lots which were lower than the beach so those parking lots filled up with foamy sea water and covered every car six inches over their tops. (I saw that at the Outrigger Waikiki.)

The only other damage that I personally witnessed was the grass and folage damage that occured at Ft Durussy when a dark gray, foamy wave swept over the beach all the way up to Kalakaua Ave. All that greenery was completely destroyed but the palm trees simply leaned over a little bit and then continued to act as though nothing happened. I didn't even see a fallen coconut. Just dead grass and shrubbery.

Another tsunami occured while we were living in a beach house directly across from the old dairy farm. Back the we had the option of staying in the house or leaving for higher ground. We elected to stay in the house but "camped out" around the brick fireplace having been told that that fireplace would be the last thing in the house that would be destroyed if a big one did roll through.

And the big one did come that night but for some miraculous reason it rolled up to the back yard door and continued to roll around the house and across the road through the dairy farms.

Once we felt we were safe, we went outside to check the damage and the road was impassable due to huge boulders strewn along the road and flopping fish.

We never could figure out what that wave never came into the house because it sue had the opportunity to do so.

Kind of like Madam Pele avoiding one home and taking the one directly next door.

Back then some of the pro surfers (Buzzy Trent for one and possibly Buffelo and Rella) had major studion contracts (or TV network contracts) to assault any major wave hitting Hawaiian shores for filming purposes.

And I am sure that Waimea Bay was full of surfers regardless of any effort to keep them out of the water.

Good to hear all is well. Do you expect any more warnings?

SOme Hawaii earthquake stories coming up if there is any interest/

The black chunk of rock looks like a pitbull's head, and right next to it, that lava curled up looks like a Chinese dragon's head, and below the black pitbull's head, the lava flow looks like a long tongue...

Yes, I was good with my "imagination" as a child.

Bay, that Hawaii volcano has been erupting continuously for something like 23 years now. I had the opportunity to watch the lava flow into the sea at night from a relatively short distance.

Spectacular sight and worth watching when it is not burning down someone's home or the whole darn village.

when that lava gets a far distance from the vent it flows like molasses and destroys everything in its path.

Agreed.  It's beautiful!  And terrible!  Photos and video do not do it justice.  You have to see it in person, feel the heat, smell it!  Nature at its most powerful!  :o
