Waves are beginning to heave a little along California's northern coast near the Oregon edge from a tsunami triggered by the massive earthquake in Japan. The tide began rising shortly after 7:30 a.m. along beaches in Crescent City, where the tsunami was expected to hit the hardest in California. Predictions are there as the waves could reach as high as 7 feet.
The Hawaii tsunami warning was recently downgraded to an advisory. Many had already evacuated the coastal areas in fear of the tsunami waves. A 1964 tsunami killed 11 people in Crescent City.
