Tsunami watch been issued from the Chilean Earthquake.

Tsunami times and heights for locations shown below:

Will need to convert UTC to local times, so for instance, for NZ, you can use this conversion:

So based on my calcs, tsunami is forecast to hit NZ for example around midnight tonight (17th/18th Sept).
