Gilma, with reduced winds, but still packing rain, will approach Hawaii by the Labor Day weekend and may be followed by Hector just a couple of days later. Just days after Hurricane Hone passed to the south of Hawaii bringing gusty winds and locally flooding rain, Gilma and Hector are waiting in the wings over the central Pacific with eyes for the islands as well, AccuWeather meteorologists say.

Tsunamis are (often) giant ocean waves triggered mainly by earthquakes. These waves, as we often see them happening in Asia roll ashore and cause loss of life and devastation. Did you know that tsunamis are not just a West Coast or Asia event? Tsunamis can happen pretty much anywhere where the ocean’s floor moves. Larger tsunamis are caused by an earthquake near a subduction zone as the leading edge of the overriding plate breaks free and springs seaward, raising the sea floor and the water above it. This uplift starts a tsunami. Meanwhile, the bulge behind the leading edge collapses, thinning the plate and lowering coastal areas.

The “dead zone” is approximately 6,705 square miles , as measured last week. Within NOAA’s 38 years of measuring the dead zone, this year’s assessment marks the 12th-largest area of low to no oxygen, which can kill fish and marine life.
