"A tsunami has hit coastal areas of Russia’s Kuril Islands and Japan’s large northern island of Hokkaido after a powerful, 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Russia early Wednesday. Warnings are also in place for California, Alaska, Hawaii and other coasts south toward New Zealand.

The Japan Meteorological Agency said a tsunami as high as 40 centimeters (1.3 feet) had been detected in 16 locations as the waves moved south along the Pacific coast from Hokkaido to just northeast of Tokyo. Officials urged caution, saying that bigger waves could come later.

Damage and evacuations were reported in the Russian regions nearest the quake’s epicenter on the Kamchatka Peninsula."

The Hawaii Emergency Management Agency has issued a tsunami warning as of 2:43 p.m. for the Hawaiian Islands after an earthquake rattled the east coast of Russia. According to the National Weather Service, the watch was issued just after 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 29, following the 8.7 magnitude quake. What’s the difference between tsunami warning, watch? In an update shortly after 2:45 p.m., officials upgraded the tsunami watch to a tsunami warning.

All residents in the primary evacuation zone are urged to evacuate. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said available data suggest hazardous tsunami waves are forecasted for some coasts. “Tsunami waves reaching one to three meters above the tide level are possible along some coasts of the northwestern Hawaiian Islands.”

Alaska is also under warning. Glancing at Japanese news and there's a warning there too. Presumably the relevant Russian coast too

Tsunami alert for US, Russia, Japan after 8.8 quake off Russia’s eastern Kamchatka Peninsula

30 July 2025

A magnitude 8.8 earthquake and a tsunami of 3-4 metres (9.8 ft) have been recorded in Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula.

It's triggered evacuations in both Russia and Japan, and an emergency warning for Japan's Pacific coast. No injuries have been reported.

The earthquake was felt 250 kilometres away in Hokkaido - along Japan's Pacific coast. A tsunami warning is in place there.

A tsunami warning has been issued for Hawaii, while sirens have gone off in Honolulu.

Officials are preparing to open a mountain pass to allow people to evacuate coastal regions.

Advisories are also in effect for Alaska.

Chris Elders is a structural geology expert at Curtin University. He says it's not unusual to witness earthquakes in the Pacific region.
