The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii has lifted the tsunami advisory that was in place for San Diego and Orange counties but has left it in effect for other areas of the California coastline.

A strong earthquake in Russia triggered a tsunami advisory that has since been canceled for San Diego County coastal areas and the entire West Coast.

In 2011, a tsunami hit California after a large earthquake in Japan. More than 100 boats in Santa Cruz were damaged. The magnitude 9.0 earthquake triggered a massive wave that traveled 5,000 miles across the ocean, causing damage up and down the West Coast as far south as San Diego.
