Don't want to be alarmist but on Japanese TV it's been reported that a warning has been issued for many places including NZ.
Evidently ones 12m high have hit the Japanese coastline.

Listening to an aussie based 'expert' it seems we would not see much both here and in Aus,, like something a few cm's high at worst. Here's hoping  |

Have been out on a boat up north including the Poor Knights these last four days. No obvious tsunami waves or surges, but the effects were very strange on the tides and swells. A quiet bay turned into a patch of eddies in a few minutes, schools of fish vanished. The effects were evident if the waves were not.

Interesting Joe. Were the fish still biting the bait with the water all upset?

No, they vanished. I guess they know better than we do. There is a video on Youtube of a tsunami surge at Whitianga. I'll try to dig it out.

2'10" thats me and my son Anthony heading up to the boat in the dinghy. I have a few similar video's and photos. Surges like that were going up and down the harbour every hour from 10am till after dark. I was taking people out to watch the power boat race. There was no real danger, just a need to be careful.
