TSunami Hitting Hawaii: Live Video 2-27-2010

As predicted earlier in the day that tsunami is hitting the Hawaii islands, there are several unconfirmed reports from various Hawaiian locations that tsunami waves have finally reached there. However, an 8.8 magnitude earthquake was always considered capable of mass destruction and devastating tsunami waves.

If the reports with reference to CNN and other reliable media sources are to be believed, in the islands of Juan Fernandez some 600 km away from Chile, 40 meters tsunami tidal waves followed the Chile earthquake on Saturday February 27, 2010. Islands of Robinson Crusoe already experienced tsunami waves and now the news are suggesting that the same have reached the Hawaii region as well.
There were several warnings issued throughout the day and people were alerted through sirens that tsunami was going to hit countless Hawaiian territories. It’s not clear yet whether the areas under threat in Hawaii have been hit by now since no official word has been released though the examples of Juan Fernandez and Robinson Crusoe leave no doubt that inevitable will happen; sooner or later.
78 deaths in Chile have already been confirmed and it is feared that the number of death victim might definitely be far too larger than mere 78 since number of houses and other buildings were reported toppled following powerful jerks. Numbers of far-off countries were declared in the effect of tsunami warnings including New Zealand, Australia, Japan, South America and even Russia.
Both Japan and Chile were hit by 7.3 and 8.8 magnitudes earthquakes on Saturday morning within a span of just few hours thus prompting severe tsunami threats. Though Japan is not new to tremors and faces several minor jerks throughout the year, however, Saturday’s quake was an exception. However, there was also no news from Japan over damages of human lives or injuries.
