This past week with the anniversary of 9/11 got me wondering, what was life like for civilians living in Hawaii during the Pearl Harbor attack?

There are many accounts of what the day was like for military personnel, and for civilians connected to the military. But I haven't found anything about civilians living in Hawaii with no military connections. Were businesses open? Were people told to shelter indoors? What did civilians do in the days following the attack? Were any sports teams playing games afterwards? I'm particularly interested in first-person accounts from those living in Honolulu, but secondary sources and accounts from those living in smaller cities/towns or the countryside, and the other islands besides Oahu, would also be welcome.
