A tsunami warning has been issued for Hawaii, where waves set off by an 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Russia’s remote Far East are expected to arrive after 7 p.m. local time.

The year’s strongest earthquake struck off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula, triggering tsunami warnings and advisories in Hawaii, California, Oregon and Washington.

One of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded struck Russia’s Far East, sending tsunami waves into Japan, Hawaii and the U.S. West Coast

Hurricane Iona was expected to move westward and does not pose any land threat to the Hawaiian Islands, forecasters said.

All is calm in the Atlantic Ocean – for now, at least – however the National Hurricane Center is staying busy in the Pacific Ocean, as forecasters are currently tracking five systems, including one hurricane and one tropical storm.
