Tsunami Warning Lifted After 7.0 Earthquake Off Northern California

A 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of northern California near Ferndale, prompting a tsunami warning that was later cancelled. Despite the strong tremors, no significant damage or fatalities have been reported, though over 10,000 people in Humboldt County are without power. California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency to mobilize resources for affected areas. The earthquake is notable as such powerful quakes are rare in the region, with only 10 to 15 occurring globally each year.
