Default 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.

Wow, yeah my sister-in-law called me to tell me about it. Glad to hear you're all ok. Sounds like a scary experience. Hope your homes are ok.

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.
