By Laura SwansonThe first “Tsunami Advisory Alerts” started lighting up my phone and email about 5 am this morning. The north Oregon Coast – in fact the entire Pacific coast from the Alaska to Mexico was under a Tsunami Advisory after at cataclysmic underwater volcano eruption near the island of Tonga in the South Pacific. The tsunami waves that hit Hawaii were 3+ feet, and the Pacific Coast saw heights from 1 to 3 feet. There was no damage reported … the tsunami advisory was lifted at about 5 pm.
