Millions of Americans under threat of tsunami with urgent evacuations in Hawaii underway as biggest earthquake in 14 YEARS rocks the planet

Millions of Americans were under threat of a devastating tsunami following a massive 8.7 magnitude earthquake that struck off the coast of Russia.

Residents in Hawaii were urged to evacuate from coastal areas as the entire island chain braced for the impact within hours.

Data from the US Geological Survey shows the quake reached a magnitude of 8.7 and struck about 84 miles east-southeast of Kamchatska, Russia at around 7.24pm EST.

Tsunami warnings were in effect for parts of Alaska while a tsunami watch has been expanded to cover the entire West Coast of the United States.

The Department of Emergency Management for Oahu, an island of Hawaii, urged residents on the coast to evacuate the area or at least move to higher ground ahead, as a tsunami could occur as early as 7.17pm local time.

Officials in Guam also urged residents to get off the beaches and harbors.

The tsunami 'could be destructive' to coastal areas, authorities at the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center warned, adding that 'waves reaching more than three meters above the tide level [or about 10 feet] are possible along some coasts of Northwestern Hawaiian Islands.'

The National Weather Service also warned residents they 'are in danger.'

Hawaii should be OK = lots of mountains to run up. Midway, not so much.

NHK World has preempted regular shows for nonstop domestic coverage. 3m predicted for Hokkaido-Kochi Peninsula (Pacific coast). 1m for Aomori and Japan Sea coast. The PM is addressing the country. Evacuate now if in the coastal area.

Let me guess, tomorrow the main stream media will have this being President Trumps fault.

Apparently not one person dead in Russia as of a few minutes ago.

Let’s hope that will be true of Japan and the US coast.

Too bad. Not my problem. Left Coast hardest hit. Any chance that it could wipe out San Francisco?
