Everyone is saying the identical factor as US issued with tsunami replace
The US has been hit by a huge earthquake measuring at 7.0 that caused coastal areas to be issued with a tsunami warning.
People around the world have watched on in horror as they waited to see if California, the west coast of the US, would become the site of disaster. Many people took to Twitter (X) to comment about the potential impending mega waves that are known to cause unprecedented death and destruction once they hit shore.
However, everyone was saying the same thing after the National Weather Service (NWS) for the San Francisco Bay area and other official bodies issued an update on social media.

On the post that already has near 500,000 views in less than an hour, the NWS shared a bulletin from the National Tsunami Warning Centre, which said: “Tsunami Warning CANCELED[sic].”

This resulted in social media users blowing a sigh of relief as many repeated the same response below the bulletin post – “thank god.”
The organisation shared a transcript that explained that the tsunami warning had been lifted. The terrifying warning originally declared that “you are in danger” and for people to “get away from coastal waters.”
It is thought the warning covered at least 5.3 million Californians, from the Davenport coast to the Oregon-California border and includes the San Francisco Bay area.
In the update from the organisation, they explained: “The tsunami warning is cancelled for the coastal areas of California and Oregon.
“No tsunami danger presently exists in this area. This will be the final US National Tsunami Warning Centre message for this region.”
The message ended by telling people to consult the tsunami.com website for more information.
One social media user joined in the collective sigh of relief and said, like many, “Thank GOD.” Another shared: “That’s a relief.”
While a third expressed: “Thank God! It’s amazing how quickly things can shift.”
