Editorial: Tsunami scare is a call to action | Honolulu Star-Advertiser

Emergency warnings triggered mass evacuations and severe traffic delays in Hawaii after a magnitude 8.8 earthquake off Kamchatka, though no tsunami damage occurred, officials said.

Summary by Star Advertiser
A jolt of panic surged through the islands on July 29, when a massive magnitude 8.8 earthquake off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula buckled the sea floor, sending tsunami waves across the Pacific, and with them, hours of anxious uncertainty. Fortunately, no dangerous wall of water materialized here, but an air of doubt lingers as residents who faced traffic gridlock in an attempt to flee inundation zones ponder what could have gone wrong.
