We are past the ETA of the first waves to arrive, with no significant effects of the tsunami. But there are some large swells sighted on West Hawai'i island. Honoli'i Bay, my local surf break has been picking up in surf at the point.

Hawai'i island police have evacuated all low lying areas in Hilo - the place looks like a ghost town (or Hilo town in the 80s).

Ala Moana on O'ahu has folks indicating that the reef is starting to show in areas - water receding drastically. On Hawai'i island, from the Naniloa Hotel webcam, water can be seen receding rapidly, causing whitewater over exposed reef in areas that should be underwater. Water is moving out, and perhaps the first wave has not yet come... Water has now moved back in, and the rapids have disappeared. The ocean is changing by the minute, but nothing drastic yet.
