    I've been hearing this on the news this evening, and was wondering if anyone here lives in Hawaii, and have been affected by it?

    Has this been posted already?

    I have a cousin who lives at the very north of Hawaii, very close to the epicenter. They just moved there on 10 acres 2 years ago and are living in a small trailer with generators (living off the land). I just spoke to her on her land line.

    She has a Yoga studio- window knocked out. Her families only loss is water. No one has power. Many of her neighbors have lost valuable items, but no loss of life as she knows.

    She did tell me that the experts expect another, greater, quake 24 to 48 hours. She's pessimistic.

    Many roads blocked by rocks.

    Bryan, Glad to hear your cousin and her family are okay.

    Hope they get their water back soon, and I hope she is wrong about more quakes. They could get aftershocks, though, and that might make her think it's a new quake.

    Oh this is terrible, but so far no deaths thankfully.

    Thanks Hubert.

    What she was saying (you know how news is immidiately after an event) was that a new BIGGER quake was predicted within 48 hours. Sounds crazy to me.

    Best,

    Bryan
