A powerful 7.3 magnitude earthquake struck near Sand Point, Alaska, triggering tsunami alerts and emergency sirens in Kodiak and Cold Bay. While no major damage has been reported, coastal towns remain under advisory. Citizens are urged to stay alert, stay high, and stay informed.
A JOLT FROM THE DEEP — EARTHQUAKE STRIKES OFF ALASKA’S PACIFIC EDGE
At approximately 10:48 AM local time, a 7.3 magnitude earthquake struck 54 miles south of Sand Point, Alaska — a seismically active region on the Pacific Rim known as the “Ring of Fire.” The quake sent tremors across multiple communities including Cold Bay and Kodiak, triggering the National Weather Service to issue a tsunami warning, later downgraded to an advisory.
Sand Point sits on Popof Island, roughly 600 miles southwest of Anchorage — and while local reports mention minimal shaking on land, it’s what happens offshore that remains the real threat.
NOTE: Earthquakes of this magnitude have the potential to displace large volumes of ocean water — even when shaking on land seems mild. The tsunami risk is real, and the timeline between quake and impact can be dangerously short.
WHO’S IN THE IMPACT ZONE — AND WHAT TO DO
The tsunami advisory is currently in effect for areas stretching from Kennedy Entrance to Unimak Pass — a wide swath of Alaska’s Pacific coastline. Cities under advisory include:
Sand Point
Cold Bay
Kodiak
Chignik
King Cove
Local police in Kodiak confirmed emergency sirens were activated, instructing residents to move to high ground. Authorities expect any tsunami impact near Kodiak to occur around 2:40 p.m., depending on wave behavior.
NOTE: Even small tsunami waves can cause dangerous currents, coastal flooding, and port disruptions. People near the coast should not return to low-lying areas until official all-clear is given.
WHAT WITNESSES SAW — AND WHY THIS STILL MATTERS
Michael Ashley of Cold Bay Lodge described the quake as noticeable but not intense — typical, he says, for this time of year.
However, this is precisely why many residents underestimate the danger. Alaska is used to seismic activity — but complacency kills when waves follow quakes.
NOTE: The physical shaking is only part of the threat. The real danger can come 30 to 90 minutes later — when the ocean responds.
STAY HIGH, STAY INFORMED, STAY SAFE
Authorities urge all residents in the advisory zone to do the following:
Monitor official alerts from the National Weather Service and local emergency agencies
Know your tsunami evacuation route and high ground location
Do not return to coastal areas until authorities declare it safe
Keep devices charged and avoid relying solely on internet alerts — use radio, too
NOTE: This event may not result in large destruction — but it is a reminder. The earth does not warn before it moves. The ocean does not wait before it strikes. Be ready.
