Just read on Facebook that Washinton state has had a 7.7 point earthquake, also one, not stated what degree it is rated in BC on the west coast. I hope Mr. M is alright.
Here is a map of what is happening:

There is a tsunami warning for Juno, Alaska....
Hope all are safe and well...
Actually, it is off the coast of Haida Gwaii, British Columbia, Canada.

That's what was posted on Facebook and showed up on the map. Oh well wherever it is, I hope all are well. Thinking of Mrs.M. And her family...

I didn't feel a thing. 7.7 is a big deal, but it wasn't really close to anything, as far as I can tell.
Thanks, Tussie, All is well with us (and everyone), with only reports of minimal damage. I listened to a news special on the radio late into the morning (last night) re:, and all seems well in the Hawaiian Islands, too.

My parents are in Hawaii and they evacuated from their hotel to a high-ground community center in the middle of the night. But the anticipated waves never came, thank goodness.
