Experts warned that a tsunami could strike anywhere in the Pacific. Emergency officials set off shrieking alarm sirens across parts of Hawaii, which could face its largest waves since 1964 starting at 11:19 a.m. (4:19 p.m. EST, 2119 GMT), according to Charles McCreery, director of the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center.

One of the major news stations was saying that it was 500 times stronger than the one that hit Haiti.

Yeah, it isn't like they can easily move to a part of the country that isn't quake prone. Prayers and good wishes for those affected by these quakes.
