A massive magnitude 8.8 earthquake struck off Russia's Pacific coast, triggering tsunami warnings and evacuations of coastal areas in Hawaii and alerts along the United States' West Coast.

Crescent City — one of California’s northernmost towns and Del Norte County ’s lone city — took a close-to-$1 million hit to its harbor after tsunami waves battered the North Coast earlier this week.

Waves were reported along a wide swath of the Northern California coast, including in San Francisco. The rest of the state was under a lesser tsunami advisory.
