An 8.0-magnitude earthquake struck at 1:53 p.m. in Alaska, prompting a tsunami warning for the U.S. Pacific coast.
Monday, June 23, 2014
LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- An 8.0-magnitude earthquake struck along the Aleutian Islands in Alaska at 1:53 p.m. PT, prompting a tsunami warning for the U.S. Pacific coast. A preliminary report indicated the quake was a 7.1 magnitude. That was revised minutes later to 8.0 by the U.S. Geological Survey.
The warning for Southern California was downgraded to a tsunami advisory by the National Weather Service. The advisory was canceled at 4:53 p.m. PT.
The NWS reported that water was leaving the harbor of the city of Adak, Alaska, at 3:23 p.m. The Adak city manager confirmed to ABC News that water in the harbor was receding and people in that area were heading for higher ground. Adak, the largest city near the epicenter, has about 300 residents.
Monday's quake generated small tsunamis with waves of less than 7 inches, prompting the National Tsunami Warning Center to downgrade the warning to an advisory. Small waves were expected along parts of the Aleutian Islands stretching from Unimak Pass to Attu, and officials advised people to stay off the beaches.
The tsunami advisory for Alaska was canceled at 6:47 p.m. PT.
The earthquake struck 244 miles southeast of Attu Station in Alaska, about 15 miles off Little Sitkin Island, at a depth of 71.1 miles, according to the USGS.
A second earthquake was reported at 2:30 p.m. Los Angeles time. The second quake registered as a 5.9-magnitude temblor, according to the USGS, downgraded from a 6.2 preliminary estimate from the Pacific Coast Tsunami Warning Center.
A local tsunami warning was issued after an 8.0 magnitude earthquake struck in the Pacific Ocean west of Alaska's Aleutian Islands on Monday, the U.S. Geological Survey and the National Tsunami Warning Center said.
The warning covered coastal areas of Alaska from Nikolski to Attu, the center said, adding the level of tsunami danger was being evaluated for other U.S. and Canadian Pacific coasts.
The quake struck about 14 miles (23 km) southeast of Little Sitkin Island, Alaska, at a depth of about 71 miles (114 km), USGS said.

6.9 magnitude strikes north of NZ: A magnitude 6.9 earthquake hit the Kermadec Islands, the northernmost group of islands in New Zealand territory, just after 7am this morning. It was followed by a 6.3 two minutes later and a 6.2 just after 8am. The quakes struck around 90km off the coast of Raoul Island, or just under 1000km from Whangarei, the US Geological Survey reports. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre says there is currently no risk of a tsunami from the earthquakes. Raoul Island is the northernmost inhabited outpost of New Zealand and is permanently manned. The island is no stranger to large earthquakes; a magnitude 7.6 hit in July 2011 and generated a small tsunami. A 7.4 hit later that same year in October. -TVNZ
