Water Level Data from Pacific Tsunami Warning Center Tide Gauges in Hawaii

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: April 11, 2026 at 10:05 PM | Dataset Last Updated: November 16, 2018 at 12:00 AM
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center (PTWC) of the National Weather Service (NWS), an organizational element of NOAA, operates and maintains a network of approximately 12 coastal tide gauge stations as part of the NOAA Tsunami Program. The data collected are used to meet tsunami warning responsibilities. Included in this water level collection are preliminary 10-second water levels from 12 stations in Hawaii (1611408: Nawiliwili, 1611691: Hanalei, 1612352: Makapu'u, 1612482: Waianae, 1612647: Haleiwa, 1614465: Kaumalapau, 1615629: Lahaina, 1617001: Kapoho, 1617180: Honokohau, 1617720: Mahu Kona, 1617725: Laupahoehoe, 1618431: Milolii,and 1618578: Honuapo).
