A major earthquake off the coast of Humboldt County led officials to issue a tsunami warning for Northern California and Southern Oregon, which was later lifted.
Karleisa Rogacheski from the National Weather Service confirmed that the tsunami warning was lifted after officials assessed the earthquake type and risks had diminished.
Authorities warned the public about potential flooding from tsunami waves in low-lying areas and evacuated parts of Berkeley while BART service was suspended.
The initial tsunami warning covered the Bay Area, with alerts sent via cellphones, estimating wave arrival times at specific coastal locations.
