reporter: hi. what can you tell us? we have been talking about the tsunami warning and that it could be expanded to include more of pacific. if you heard anything along those lines. reporter: a hurricane watch has been issued for hawaii. so that is obviously a concern to one of our states i. wow. as we are talking i have to talk about this. we are watching it appears the tsunami coming nthe smaller one that was 13 feet. we are it looks like it s carrying homes and cars and everything else. are they still worried about consequent tsunamis? that could do that damage or worse? reporter: these are not live pictures, is that correct? this is stuff we got in. we are told that this is a 13-foot tsunamiy that hit 30 minutes after the 8.8 that hit offshore. reporter: right. that s what we are looking at. so we have had these for a little while. reporter: where this is, if
tsunami hit at that point. but now we are hearing that at least a 13-foot tsunami did wash away the cars and buildings, at least along the coast and that was near the epicenter, of where the quake hit. we are told that was 80 miles offshore. you know, as we sit here and talk, david, we are looking at more pictures of some of the damage that was done. we saw a large ship swept away we didn t see that here. but we have seen pleny of cars. when you plenty of cars. when you see the cars, the first thing you think is: were there people inside those cars? reporter: that s right. when the tsunami hit phuket. we had a vessel, about 600 meters off the coast. and there was what was left of the lake. that s a great danger, there are a lot of coast roads and cars can get swept away. but coming back to the point of a tsunami netokyo, it is very
