TSUNAMI warning BC Northern and Central Coast
 
So there was just an earthquake 7.7 magnitude off the coast of Haida Gwaii. There is now a Tsunami warning for the Northern and Central BC coast.

I experienced the quake in Kitimat and it was pretty exteme.

According to the news it is the biggest Earthquake to ever hit bc that we have records for.

I seen a post on CBC from someone here Steve, that said they felt it here. Of course with the trains shaking our place every hour, cant tell the difference over here.
