WTF 8.9 Earthquake + Tsunami in Japan

Will do :D

The Pacific Tsunami Warning CentrE said Kauai was the first island hit early Friday by the tsunami. Water rushed ashore in Honolulu, swamping the beach in Waikiki and surging over the break wall in the world-famous resort but stopping short of the area's high-rise hotels.
Waves at least 3ft (a metre) high were recorded on Oahu and Kauai, and officials warned that the waves would continue and could become larger.

Roadways and beaches were empty as the tsunamis struck the state, which had hours to prepare. Residents in coastal areas of Hawaii were sent to refuge areas at community centers and schools while tourists in Waikiki were moved to higher floors of their high-rise hotels. People waited in long lines stocking up on gas, bottled water, canned food and generators, and officials told residents to stock up on water and fill their cars with gas.
 
7 of the 10 nuclear plants are down in Japan due to failed cooling systems. At least if it goes bad just like Hawaii is used to big waves Japan is used to fallout.
