Tsunami Warning: California and Oregon
There is a tsunami warning in effect due to an earthquake with a magnitude of 7 on the Richter scale that occurred approximately 39 miles off the West Coast. The warning is for Northern California and the state of Oregon, with tides expected to arrive in about an hour. Residents in low-lying areas are advised to evacuate immediately. I hope boaters are safe and have returned to the dock. I'm uncertain if actually being aboard a boat during a tsunami is a safer option.
Update: The Tsunami warning is cancelled.
