EVALUATION

THIS EARTHQUAKE IS LOCATED OUTSIDE THE PACIFIC. NO TSUNAMI THREAT

AUTHORITIES IN THOSE REGIONS SHOULD BE AWARE OF THIS POSSIBILITY
AND TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION. THIS ACTION SHOULD INCLUDE EVACUATION
OF COASTS WITHIN A THOUSAND KILOMETERS OF THE EPICENTER AND CLOSE

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BECOMES AVAILABLE.

THE WEST COAST/ALASKA TSUNAMI WARNING CENTER WILL ISSUE BULLETINS
FOR ALASKA - BRITISH COLUMBIA - WASHINGTON - OREGON - CALIFORNIA.
 

pardon me if i'm wrong but the Tsunami warnings by these twp tusnami monitoring centres seems to be only for their region. Their no action status refers to that area only right? No one knows if there's tsunami or anything else in Sumatra.................... :dunno:
 

My sis in KL said the windchimes in her apartment on the highest floor were ringing like mad and her celing lights also... everyone ran downstairs and is sleeping at my mother's house now... lots of people in Sg and Malaysia felt it, but nothing here in Ghim Moh :D
