The TVNZ newsroom is doing half hourly updates tracking the Tsunami as it moves across the pacific from the earthquake epicentre off Samoa throughout the day.
The news bulletins will continue every 30 minutes and provide evacuation updates, Civil Defence advisories and reports of the earthquake and Tsunami's impact as they filter in.
Extensive coverage of these events is also online at www.tvnz.co.nz and in a full half hour bulletin at 4:30pm and ONE News tonight at six.
TVNZ has journalists and camera crews arriving at Tsunami landing points now around New Zealand and reporter, Lisa Owen is due in Samoa shortly.
