A strong earthquake off the coast of Fiji this morning does not pose a tsunami threat to Hawaii.
The preliminary magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck at 8:24 a.m. 106 miles east of Ceva-i-Ra, Fiji at a depth of 9.2 miles, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
There were no tsunami warnings or watches posted by the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center.
There were no immediate reports of injuries.
Hope that the fresh water that is bottled in Fiji hasn’t been affected.
It won’t hurt the water, but with any luck it might hurt the corporation:

As usual, there will never be a “6-point-anything” quake that poses the slightest tsunami threat to Hawaii unless it happens locally.
I’m waiting for the headline “Meteorite Strikes Moon, No Danger In Hawaii From Falling Debris”
Yep. I think that we all wait. Forever!
No Tsunami for Hawaii. God can see that we already have enough problems to deal with.
