Just received a report that a one foot wave was seen in Santa Monica. The Weather Channel noted that the advisory for California is now from Los Angeles to San Luis Obispo. However, NOAA is still sticking to its original advisory for the areas from San Onofre beach to San Luis Obispo and asks that people avoid California beaches for 24 hours.

The energy of this tsunami is now arriving along coastal SoCal and progressing up the coast. Any reports from our members would be appreciated.
