Description
An 8.8 magnitude earthquake along the Pacific coast of Russia sent tsunami waves to Japan, Alaska, Hawaii, and California. Waves may continue with aftershocks.
The first few rounds of waves are typically the highest, but that's not guarantee. The Pacific Ocean will remain turbulent, like a toddler in a bathtub, those morning with extra waves across the entire basin.
We will watch aftershocks closely to see if any more waves are generated.
We have wave height reports from around U.S. states and territories in the Pacific Ocean.
