Big Earthquake in Hawaii

This is from Yahoo.com

HONOLULU - An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.3 struck Hawaii early Sunday morning, waking up residents and knocking out power.


The U.S. Geological Survey also reported several aftershocks, including one measuring a magnitude of 5.8. No damage reports were immediately available.

The quake occurred at 7:07 a.m. local time, 10 miles north-northwest of Kailua Kona, a town on the west coast of the Big Island, said Don Blakeman, a geophysicist at the National Earthquake Information Center, part of the U.S. Geological Survey.

Blakeman said researchers were still trying to ascertain how many aftershocks struck and how large.

Blakeman said there was no risk of a Pacific-wide tsunami, but a possibility of significant wave activity in Hawaii.

The quake occurred about 155 miles to the southeast of Honolulu, the state capital, in Oahu

Re: Big Earthquake in Hawaii

The epicenter was in Kilaulia Kona (Big Island of Hawai'i) about 20 miles north of where my SIL and her boyfriend live. We heard from them today and THANK GODChat Icon they are OK. Please pray for their friends who were swimming at Kilakilaua Bay this morning, she said she saw a landslide go into the bay and she has not heard from a few friends yet. For now, they are not overly concerned about the volcano erupting, but they are keep a close watch on it.

Please pray for everyone on Big Island and on all the islands of Hawaii. Chat Icon
