Hawaii Governor Declares State of Emergency -

8 foot Tsunami created from this morning's Chilean earthquake could hit Hawaii in about 10 minutes at 3 pm central time according to Fox News....
FOXNews.com: "Hawaii's governor has declared a state of emergency as the island chain braces for possible tsunami damage generated from a major earthquake that rocked Chile on Sunday.
Gov. Linda Lingle signed an emergency disaster proclamation as a geophysicist at the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii said that a potential tsunami was approaching Hawaii faster than originally predicted.

Victor Sardina said data coming in from buoys and tide gauges across the Pacific indicated the tsunami should arrive in Hawaii at 11:05 a.m. (4:05 p.m. ET), instead of 11:19 a.m.

The tsunami waves are expected to measure roughly 8 feet at Hilo, Hawaii."
This was a video from this morning with a caller who was describing the aftershocks of the earthquake that may cause further damage to the Hawaiian islands....
