It prompted a tsunami warning for waves of up to 50cm (20 inches) for parts of the Pacific coast, the country's meteorological agency said.

There is also an alert for japan after a 6.4 quake there but I feel this is the one to watch as if this comes off

some countries will get hammered hard

Lets hope this doesn't happen
