That had to be Doocey.

Everytime they show that tidal wave that is just burning on fire I chuckle a bit.

Do you need teepee for your bunghole too?

some tweets are saying nothing really hit Guam yet.

Are smaller quakes hitting Hawaii? A friend texted me that, but I can't find a story about it. Is that just to be expected given it's proximity?

The only thing that has been reported was a single quake of 4.6 on the big island.

teedubya 03-11-2011 05:07 AM
Here is when the waves will hit everywhere.

I see 14 quakes in Hawaii today, but I think they may be related to the one in Japan.

Surf's Up they issued warnings all up and down the west coast. Looks like it's time to break out the surf board could be some gnarly waves at 7:30-8am!
