Tsunami Watch
Cancelled
GREAT BAY, Sint
Maarten (DCOMM) – Disaster Coordinator Winston Salomon would like to inform the
Sint Maarten community that a Tsunami Watch issued for the entire Caribbean by
the US National Weather Service Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, has been
cancelled.
An earthquake has occurred
off Costa Rica measuring 7.6 in magnitude, on the Pacific coast of that country
within the past hour.
The tsunami watch was
initially meant for the Pacific and was inadvertently sent to the Caribbean by
mistake by the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center.
There is no Tsunami Watch
for Sint Maarten.
