Just “watch” level for US west coast, but warning level for Hawaii and Alaska.

Air alarms are going off in Hawaii. Still a few hours away, but they are not joking around. Saying it can wrap around all the islands and hit anywhere

  • Phone just went off screaming with a warning here in NZ - more a "stay away from the water" warning than a "head for the hills" one

    • Impressive, glad the alarm chain works. And from what you say the warning message is also clear and understandable. Not tech or geology jargon that people don't understand and then take no or the wrong actions.

  • It will arrive in California in the middle of the night. Hope they don’t materialize.

Watch has been upgraded to Warning (Aleutian Islands and California from Cape Mendocino to the Oregon border) or Advisory (California from Cape Mendocino south, and pretty much everything from the California/Oregon border to Alaska until you reach the Aleutian Islands, it looks like.)
