The tsunami warning -- which impacted at least 5.3 million people before it was canceled around 12 p.m. Pacific time -- was issued for coastal areas in California and Oregon, including several parts of the Bay Area.
The earthquake's epicenter is off the coast near Petrolia, in Humboldt County, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The USGS estimated that more than 1.3 million people lived close enough to the quake to feel it in some capacity.
