Heard about it on the radio. They said there were tsunami warnings. But when I saw strike slip I thought, "why?" as about the only way for these to make a tsunami is if it causes an undersea landslide, and then it would only be a local effect.
But maybe it was precautionary. I see it has been cancelled.

I'm sure there's no end of theories as to how this all works and how, ultimately, it means California is going to fall off into the ocean imminently.
