Portions of Solano County are under a TSUNAMI WARNING following a magnitude-7.0 earthquake that struck off the coast of Northern California on Thursday.

The earthquake struck around 10:30 a.m. west of Humboldt County, triggering the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center to issue a Tsunami Warning for coastal California and portions of inland Northern California near significant bodies of water.

A map reviewed by Solano NewsNet showed the warning extends into portions of Vallejo, Benicia, rural Fairfield and Rio Vista, as well as most of Napa County and portions of Martinez, Pinole, Richmond, Antioch and Oakley.

Forecasters said tsunami waves are expected to impact the San Francisco Bay Area by around 12:10 p.m.

The Solano County Office of Emergency Services will post updates on social media and through AlertSolano.org throughout the morning and afternoon as the situation warrants, and Solano NewsNet will update on our real-time Facebook group, on X/Twitter and Bluesky.
