Officials on the West Coast are monitoring the effects of a magnitude 7.0 earthquake that hit off the coast of northern California. In response, a tsunami warning was issued for the Douglas/Lane Line area of Oregon and Davenport, Calif., but the warning was later called off by officials.
A magnitude 7.0 earthquake hit off a sparsely populated stretch of northern California coast on Thursday, prompting coastal towns to evacuate low-lying areas amid a tsunami warning that was later cancelled.
Emergency Info B.C. says there is “no tsunami threat to B.C.”
No deaths or injuries were reported. There were no reports of major damage, though authorities said they needed time to check across the impacted area.
The U.S. National Weather Service said that the tsunami warning that extended along 800 kilometres of the California and Oregon coasts was called off about 90 minutes after the earthquake struck at 10:44 a.m. PT (1:44 p.m. ET).
