Hawaii Braces for Potential Tsunami After Russian Quake
Hawaiian authorities are on alert for a potential tsunami following a powerful earthquake near Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula. While no significant waves have been seen yet, emergency measures include closing commercial harbors and canceling flights in and out of Maui. The power supply remains unaffected.

In a precautionary response to a strong earthquake near Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula, Hawaiian authorities are preparing for a potential tsunami. Governor Josh Green announced late Tuesday that, as of now, there have been no signs of a significant wave.
Hawaii's Emergency Management Agency has closed all commercial harbors and canceled flights to and from the island of Maui as part of their emergency measures. Despite these precautions, there are no current plans to disrupt the power supply, ensuring that residents retain electricity during the alert period.
The situation is being closely monitored, and officials remain vigilant, awaiting further developments to determine if additional actions are necessary to safeguard the islands.
