18:00 UTC : It will probably take a couple of hours before that we can have more information from this remote area in the world. We do say this on the basis of earlier similar earthquakes.
17:58 UTC : If the tsunami waves will be 2 meters in reality (the predicted height is theoretical), than we can speak from a very severe tsunami on this location

They just had another big one, a 7.4. Still no tsunami advisory except for some localized ones. Could be another major swarm like in Japan?

18:50 UTC : FELT Reports as received by Earthquake-Report.com from Vanuatu
Vanuatu : Longues secousses. Piscine qui deborde. Long shaking + swimming pool which is overflowing. MMI V and MMI VI checked.
Efate : Experienced severe quake at 5.30 approx – much stronger than 7.5 at 3.55 am MMI VIII checked (Severe shaking)
18:50 UTC : A massive 7.0 aftershock has hit the same area. GDACS calculated tsunami heights based on a 7.4 magnitude. It was recalculated later to 7.0, which is a lot less. The aftershock was reported at a depth of 28.5 km. Click here for the epicenter of this massive aftershock.

wow….2 quakes at 7.0 and 7.1 in the same place within hours of each other….and theres been loads of 5’s in this place for weeks now.

20:23 UTC : The Vanuatu Meteorological Service said tsunami waves of 1.05 meter (3.4 feet) arrived on the island of Efate less than an hour after the earthquake. It said there was no damage from the initial waves and has since cancelled the advisory.

I’ve been to Vanuatu, it’s basically just islands- very beautiful ones – but if a tsunami hits after these quakes, they will not stand a chance, much of it is on sea level.

I think it’s amazing that people forget their sixth grade geology lessons. All of this is cyclical and people are freaking out like it’s super strange stuff. The earth landmass has changed many times in its life. We are not the first humans to experience it, we’re not even as technologically advanced as the last lot! Marie, I doubt many humans will still be around to experience the new look Earth! With the NWO taking charge of the new Earth I don’t want to be around.

I did a little background check and they have been having these kinds of quakes here for years and with little Tsunami effect. One was like 35 meters and another smaller, as I recall. Do not know why some some cause bit Tsunamis and others don’t. Unless it is the location.
LikeLike
Correct me if I’m wrong, Alvin, but I believe that most tsunamis are caused by earthquakes are caused by thrust earthquakes, where part of the sea bed is lifted, therefore displacing the water. However, not all thrust quakes cause tsunamis or they cause tsunamis that are not noticeable.
LikeLike
Landslides, and strato-volcanic eruptions can produce tsunamis as was the case with the terrible tsunami unleashed by the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883 in Indonesia (see clip below), underwater volcanic eruptions can also produce tsunamis as would be the case with the Marsili volcanic complex off the coast of southern Italy but one of the most common causes happen to be the sudden thrusting of one slab of earth under another in a subduction zone due to a megathrust earthquake event.
LikeLike
Oh definitely, I apologize for not mentioning those. My mind was just on earthquakes since mega-thrust earthquakes are notorious for recent, terrible tsunamis. One landslide tsunami I remember hearing about is up in Alaska and one I am watching for and concerned about is the possibility of eruption or landslide on the Canary Islands, especially with all the rumbling that has been going on. A tsunami from there would be devastating to the East Coast. Krakatoa was an enormous tsunami which I believe was from the sudden and total explosion of the volcano. Talk about displacing water. And now Anak Krakatoa has been growing, but I haven’t heard anything about that one lately. Of course, with everything else going on, I could have missed it.
Thank you Alvin and be blessed.
