A massive 8.9 mag earthquake hit Japan at 2:46 (Tokyo's Time). As a result, tsunami's are expected to hit the coasts of western North America and Hawaii. If you head HERE, you can check the estimated arrival time of tsunamis and where they're expected to hit. We urge everyone to get to safety.

Tsunami Warning Sirens have already gone off in Hawaii.

We send our well wishes to the people of Japan and anyone else affected by this earthquake.

UPDATE: Google set up a "Person Finder" site to acquire information on those affected by the earthquake.

UPDATE 2: Pacific Tsunami Warning Center warning for Hawaii also includes Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, Central and South America
