HONOLULU (Island News) -- There is no tsunami threat for Hawaii after an 8.0 magnitude earthquake was reported in the Drake Passage.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center of Honolulu says there is no tsunami threat following an 8.0-magnitude earthquake in the Drake Passage. The earthquake struck at about 4 :35 p.m. at a depth of 10 kilometers in the Drake Passage—a body of water located between the southern tip of South America and the South Shetland Islands of Antarctica.
Seismic stations more than 600 miles away picked up the rumbling as a mountainside collapsed upon South Sawyer Glacier and into the ocean at the head of Tracy Arm.
Information from a satellite is providing scientists with a unique look at the tsunami, a breakthrough that could have implications for early warning systems.
