The first waves hit Hawaii about 9 a.m. EST (1400 GMT) Friday and traveled across the Pacific from Alaska to Chile.To see the global extent of the Japan Tsunami you should see this amazing animation showing how the tsunami traveled. This video clip was created by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) along with a Google Earth KML model.NOAA's Tsunami Wave Height Model visualization estimates the wave heights of the tsunami originating from the devastating earthquake which struck Japan on 11th March 2011.See related links below for the animation, KML, and more information.
