Report: 10/20/22

 

A magnitude 6.8 earthquake just struck off the western coast of Panama. Strong shaking has been reported. Hazardous tsunami waves are possible. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center is currently conducting an evaluation to determine if there is a tsunami threat to Hawaii following the earthquake. The agency says a tsunami threat exists for areas of the Pacific closer to the earthquake. It is still too early to determine whether Hawaii will face a threat or not. The epicenter was located 82 km south of David, Panama. Moderate shaking probably occurred in Boca Chica, located 59 km from the epicenter. I will provide more updates throughout the day when more information comes out.
