The earthquake information delivered through Bigquake notifications is preliminary. Subsequent review usually results in some revision to the data, and all users are advised to check the USGS earthquake program pages at [link to earthquake.usgs.gov] for updates. Data users are cautioned to consider carefully the provisional nature of the information before using it for decisions that concern personal or public safety or the conduct of business that involves substantial monetary or operational consequences. Earthquakes are a common occurrence, and many are either not large enough to cause damage or not located sufficiently close to populations centers to produce damage. This e-mail does not imply an impending threat.
Bigquake is an informational tool and NOT an earthquake or tsunami warning system. The USGS does not produce tsunami warnings. For the information about tsunamis, please refer to the information given in the NOAA website [link to tsunami.gov] .
