A Tsunami Warning means that all coastal residents in the warning area who are near the beach or in low-lying regions should move immediately inland to higher ground and away from all harbors and inlets including those sheltered directly from the sea. Those feeling the earth shake, seeing unusual wave action, or the water level rising or receding may have only a few minutes before the tsunami arrival and should move immediately. Homes and small buildings are not designed to withstand tsunami impacts. Do not stay in these structures.
Not an alert for BC, but just information. Magnitude 7.3 earthquake occurred 20 miles/32 Km southeast of Amukta Pass, Alaska .

The Provincial Emergency Program’s advisory is still listed on its website, but automated calls received by CBC News confirmed that the advisory was no longer in place.
The Alaskan centre cancelled the advisory for B.C., Washington and northern Oregon at 6:49 p.m. PT after the coast was no longer threatened by the tsunami that devastated Japan and caused millions of dollars of damage in California.
Thats updated, but didnt see anywhere in there where it said anything was lifted,doesnt seem like there is much of an info out.
Dont seem to threatening.
Where I live in Oregon, I’m about a block from the water and maybe 8 meters above sea level. Front row seat.
Because there are few sirens here, I had to depend on a friend calling me at 3:30 am and telling me to get out. We had about a 4 hour window. I grabbed my two handicapped clients and we went and had an extended breakfast at the local hospital cafeteria. Slight damage to the local docks. We got REAL lucky.
Tsumanis, earthquakes and such are pet studies of mine. So I got links to share…
