similar here in hilo bay and back in '57 we had one come from the russian area. it doesn't matter which direction this wave is coming from. unfortunately, hilo bay is shaped in that form that allows this wave to amplify. hilo will be the first in our state to feel the effects of this tsunami set to arrive in the city by the bay at 11:05 our time which is now, as pamela mentioned, about ten minutes away here in the islands. >> those estimated wave heights, first at 11:05 in hilo about 6 to 7 foot. then going on at 11:26 with somewhere between 3 and 9 foot waves. honolulu, 11:37 with 1 to 2 foot waves. that's just an estimate of what they are looking at, what they've been able to see with the buoys and estimates right
