@CHPAlerts @LAPDHQ Phone alert link opens to a strange “3gp” file instead of this information. It should be sent again for people who do not use Twitter.

If you’re a grown ass man in full tactical gear asking a child to show you ID or proof of citizenship you failed at life. Utterly & completely failed. Loser.

@EmoMexic4n @ReadyLA Hi, it depends on how far north you are. For LA, the arrival time is around 1AM, and surges of waves could last through 10AM on Wednesday.

HNL Alert: 10:51 PM 07-29-2025 - HNL Alert: 10:45PM UPDATE - Tsunami Warning has been downgraded to Advisory. Evacuation lifted. Safe to return evacuated areas. Info: https://t.co/YRpptHbSzb https://t.co/vf4rdeDx5j

It's no surprise that the two areas experiencing the highest waves and impacts are Hilo & Kahului, Hawaii.

These are areas with coastline shapes that channel waters into a more confined area, and makes it easier for low-lying areas to be inundated.

Outside of these areas, we have not heard of any significant impacts elsewhere, outside of a few 1-5ft waves. We're still closely monitoring the Hawaiian tsunamis, and the state is not yet in the clear, but hopefully will be within the next 2-3 hours.

[Weather Track US @weathertrackus]

Just a reminder, a Tsunami Advisory remains in effect for the entire U.S. West Coast, with a Tsunami WARNING for the Northern California Coast.

Waves are beginning to reach the sites just offshore, with some at least minor tsunami impacts expected. Some moderate impacts are likely in localized areas.

The threat should end within the next 4-6 hours.

[Colin McCarthy @US_Stormwatch]

Flooded is being reported in Hilo after water levels increased nearly 10 feet in just a few minutes as tsunami waves pushed through.

Hilo Bay is notoriously the most susceptible city in Hawaii to tsunamis due to the shape of the bay which acts like a funnel, amplifying incoming tsunami waves.

Many more rounds of tsunami waves will occur throughout the night.

[NWS Los Angeles @NWSLosAngeles]

The tsunami has reached the California Coast, and is showing up in the Arena Cove, CA tide gauge and is making its way down the coast right now. https://t.co/sgdGtQjKxC

This is what a tsunami looks like at a tide gage, this is from Sand Island, Hawaii, you can see the water levels going up and down dramatically, very different from the typical water levels. #socal #cawx

[NWS Los Angeles @NWSLosAngeles]

@RiggedReality25 A tsunami wave height is very different than a general surf height, since the wave is so deep a 1 foot wave can have an incredible about of energy. They cause issues similar to large tides and large storm surge: ie. coastal flooding and dramatic water level changes in harbors.

@VoteLewko Gaza has no internet unless reporters trapped in the death camp borders still have eSIM cards. International media is banned from Gaza. Someone who went to journalism classes can show you how to find Gaza-based reporters with thousands of videos like this from dozens of angles.

@CHPAlerts @LBPD This is probably unmonitored, but I see him often near Cambodia Town & Anaheim.

[NWS Los Angeles @NWSLosAngeles]

The frontal system is slowing down currently, which may cause moderate to heavy rain rates to lingering for LA County until around 4-5 AM. This may increase impacts for morning rush hour. #CAwx #LArain

[Not Normal Industries @NotNormalIndstr]

@Weather_West @CalDisasters Moderate rain & blustery wind blowing onshore happening now in Long Beach, LA County.

This can't be repeated enough:

Social Security does NOT add to the deficit or debt. Not one cent.

Anyone saying that Social Security needs to be cut to fix the budget is lying to you to take from you.

Looking for the setting to block all “blue checkmarks” as spam bots.

@ViadelCorso2266 @IamIbrahim21 Can Italian surnames be “American” on Twitter?

[Not Normal Industries @NotNormalIndstr]

@ICK_GalG You really don’t understand how surnames work in different countries? How embarrassing for you.

If Elon was actually looking for fraud, he’d be hiring forensic accountants—not a bunch of programmers.

NOW: Anti-ICE protesters are blocking both sides of the 101 Freeway near the Alameda Street exit in DTLA. The CHP has since closed that portion of the freeway. Read more: https://t.co/K60ImdzmDi
