US tsunami warnings: Earthquake rises to 8.8, Trump weighs in

A massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck near Russia, triggering a tsunami advisory for California as well as warnings for Hawaii and Alaska. The earthquake struck the southeast area of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia at around 4:25 p.m. PST. It was originally recorded as an 8.0 magnitude, then upgraded to 8.7, then 8.8, according to the USGC. Over a dozen aftershocks occurred, including a 6.9 in the same Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky area, a 6.3 in Vilyuchinsk, Russia, and a 5.6 in Severo-Kuril’sk, Russia. The entire U.S. West Coast and British Columbia are under a Tsunami Advisory. Originally, a tsunami watch was issued for the entire coast of California, but that was then upgraded to an advisory, according to the National Tsunami Warning Center. The tsunami advisory is in effect for coastal regions in California, including Los Angeles, Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo counties. The advisory means "dangerous currents and waves are possible", according to the National Weather Service. People are advised to stay away from beaches and waterways. The center issued a list of potential start times for tsunami activity -- if it occurs at all -- across the state, including roughly 1:05 a.m. Wednesday for Los Angeles Harbor, 1:10 a.m. for Newport Beach and 1:15 a.m. for Oceanside. President Donald Trump weighed in Tuesday night on X, saying: Due to a massive earthquake that occurred in the Pacific Ocean, a Tsunami Warning is in effect for those living in Hawaii. A Tsunami Watch is in effect for Alaska and the Pacific Coast of the United States. Japan is also in the way. Please visit https://tsunami.gov for the latest information. STAY STRONG AND STAY SAFE!
