Kermadec Earthquake- Tsunami warning

[Gunner]

Just had a guy in Opua (BOI) on the radio, the water is already at high tide mark, but high tide is still an hour away...

Tide still steadily rising here in Whangarei.

[Gunner]

Just had staff from the countdown bring around ice blocks to everyone up here on the hill at Okara Park. Bloody legends!

As it's the East Coast there were probably local surfers out there.

Everybody keep an eye out for Bodhi and Johnny Utah

@gunner just seen one at Tutukaka, looks to be about 30cm and stirred everything up.

Any signs of locusts or four horsemen?

No, but Hori BOP was seen riding 3 metres waves on his blue and gold surfboard

A bit more movement around the place now, a few have left from here and more cars going across the bridge than 1/4 hour ago.

Stay safe guys.

@gunner keep an eye out for a helium balloon that someone let go on other side of Parihaka, at first thought it was a drone, but looked through my scope and looks like a crab or dolphin heading your way!

[Gunner]

@taniwharugby no flying dolphins spotted

A decent surge hit Tutukaka Marina about 15 minutes ago.
Seen the footage on a couple of Whangarei FB pages

[taniwharugby]

@gunner I saw a clip of one about 40 mins ago, no where near the one posted earlier on the East Cape, was in the <0.5m category

Shouting "You're in trouble tsunami! You're in trouble now!" while throwing handfuls of lollies to the seagulls.
