Tsunami watch issued for Hawaii after M8 earthquake off Russia

[HawaiiNewsNow] A tsunami watch is issued for the state of Hawaii following a magnitude-8.0 earthquake off Russia.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center says the earthquake struck at 1:25 p.m. HST off the east coast of Kamchatka.

A tsunami watch was issued at 1:33 p.m. HST.

Based on all available data, a tsunami may have been generated that could be destructive on coastal areas even far from the epicenter.

An investigation is underway to determine if there is a tsunami threat to Hawaii.

If tsunami waves impact Hawaii, the estimated earliest arrival of the first wave is 7:17 p.m. HST.
