BASED ON THE EARTHQUAKE LOCATION - MAGNITUDE AND HISTORIC TSUNAMI
RECORDS A DAMAGING TSUNAMI IS NOT EXPECTED ALONG
THE CALIFORNIA/ OREGON/ WASHINGTON/ BRITISH COLUMBIA AND ALASKA
COASTS. SOME OF THESE AREAS MAY EXPERIENCE NON-DAMAGING SEA
LEVEL CHANGES. AT COASTAL LOCATIONS WHICH HAVE EXPERIENCED
STRONG GROUND SHAKING LOCAL TSUNAMIS ARE POSSIBLE DUE
TO UNDERWATER LANDSLIDES.
AT 741 AM PACIFIC STANDARD TIME ON NOVEMBER 14 AN EARTHQUAKE WITH
PRELIMINARY MAGNITUDE 7.7 OCCURRED
IN NORTHERN CHILE.
MESSAGES WILL CONTINUE TO BE ISSUED HOURLY BY THE WCATWC
UNTIL THE PACIFIC TSUNAMI WARNING CENTER ISSUES A CANCELLATION OR
FINAL MESSAGE. SEE THE WEB SITE WCATWC.ARH.NOAA.GOV FOR BASIC
