Tsunami warning after 7.3-magnitude earthquake off US coast

NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

A 7.3-magnitude earthquake has hit off the coast of Alaska.

The quake triggered a tsunami warning early this morning, which has since been downgraded to an ‘advisory’.

It covers areas including the Eastern Aleutian islands, the Alaskan peninsula and Kodiak Island, with people being urged to stay out of the water and off the beach.

Tremors from the earthquake were ‘felt widely’ across the Aleutian Islands, the Alaskan Peninsula, and Cook Inlet regions, the Alaska Earthquake Centre said.
