HONOLULU (AP) - A tsunami warning has been expanded to include the entire western U.S. coast. The Tsunami Warning Center says the warning is in effect for California, Oregon, Washington and southern Alaska. Warnings were issued for Hawaii and other parts of the Pacific following a tsunami early Friday after a massive earthquake struck in Japan. Tsunami warnings are issued due to the imminent threat of a tsunami. A tsunami is expected to hit the Hawaiian Islands at 5:00 A.M. PST. A wave is expected to hit the Oregon and Washington coast lines around 7:00 A.M
In case you haven't heard, there was a huge earthquake in Japan which was followed by a Tsunami and as of this morning they were calculating multiple deaths...

Tokyo (CNN) -- The most powerful earthquake to hit Japan in at least 100 years unleashed walls of water Friday that swept across rice fields, engulfing towns, dragging houses onto highways and tossing cars and boats like toys, apparently killing hundreds.
Prime Minister Naoto Kan said the "enormously powerful" earthquake has caused "tremendous damage over a wide area."
The quake, which struck at 2:46 pm local time, sparked fires in at least 80 locations, Japan's Kyodo News Service reported, and prompted the U.S. National Weather Service to issue tsunami warnings for at least 50 countries and territories.
