Earthquake in New Zealand today: Tsunami warning issued after 7.3 magnitude earthquake strikes off New Zealand, says PTWC | World News

The US Geological Survey initially pegged the quake at 7.3, then revised it down to 6.9.
WELLINGTON: A strong 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck off the east of New Zealand's North Island on Friday, prompting a tsunami warning that was later withdrawn, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre (PTWC) said, although residents were asked to stay alert.
"There is no longer a tsunami threat from this earthquake," PTWC said in a statement.
There were no immediate reports of damage, but the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) advised people in some coastal areas to move immediately to high ground.
Local civil defence authorities said the tsunami threat would continue for several hours.
