JAKARTA - Hawaii, which is a US state in the Pacific Ocean, was hit by a tsunami due to a devastating 8.7 magnitude (M) earthquake that hit eastern Russia.
So far, the tsunami that hit Hawaii can still be anticipated because the water level and the waves are not deadly.
"So far we haven't seen a big wave," said Hawaii Governor Josh Green, Wednesday afternoon, quoted by the BBC.
Green added the tsunami in Hawaii was at a significant level and receded.
According to him, tsunami wave activity due to the Russian earthquake has not yet passed Hawaii Island.
He stressed that the safe time limit in Hawaii to face this natural disaster can be measured at least in the next two to three hours.
