The massive 8.8 earthquake off Russia’s coast, which prompted tsunami warnings that sent coastal dwellers as far away as Southern California inland late Tuesday night, is one of the largest ever recorded.
The quake hit an area about 85 miles east of Kamchatsky, on the southeastern coast of the Kamchatka peninsula. So far, there have been no reports of deaths or serious injuries, according to news outlets.

It is the largest seismic event to occur globally since the 9.0 Tohoku, Japan, earthquake in 2011, and among the top ten largest earthquakes to occur globally since 1900, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
It struck Wednesday morning local Russian time, which was still Tuesday in the United States.
The warning sent sirens blaring in Hawaii with thousands of people evacuating inland, Fox Weather reported.
