No Tsunami threat
http://wcatwc.arh.noaa.gov/message000547-01.htm
To: Tsunami warning system participants in the U.S. West Coast States, Alaska, and British Columbia
From: NOAA/NWS/West Coast-Alaska Tsunami Warning Center (Experimental Web Product)
Subject: Tsunami Information Statement #1 issued 08/7/2006 at 3:35PM PDT
A strong earthquake has occurred, but a tsunami IS NOT expected along the California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, or Alaska coast. NO tsunami warning or watch is in effect for these areas.
Based on the depth of the earthquake within the earth, a tsunami IS NOT expected along the California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska coasts. At coastal locations near the epicenter which have experienced strong ground shaking, local tsunamis are possible due to underwater landslides.
At 3:19 PM Pacific Daylight Time on August 7, an earthquake with preliminary magnitude 7.0 occurred near the Vanuatu Islands.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center will issue messages for Hawaii and other areas of the Pacific outside California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska.
This will be the only statement issued for this event by the West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center unless conditions warrant. See the WC/ATWC web site for basic tsunami information, safety rules, and a tsunami travel time map and table. (NOTE: Travel time maps and tables indicate predicted times only, not that a wave was generated.)
