Apparently, there was a similar earthquake back in 1994 which did not affect the Hawaiian Islands. Let’s hope we’re as lucky this time.

Oh, I didn’t know this. My mom and grandma are in Waikiki/Honolulu for 3 months! And I will be taking my kids there for a visit soon, I hope the tsunami stays away!
Glad to know it was cancelled but how scary!
SOOOOO glad it didn’t happen!
I was watching that carefully. Glad you all stayed safe. I would really pain me for anything bad to happen to Hawaii. The earthquakes there were bad enough.
