PHIVOLCS says no tsunami threat to the Philippines after Bismarck Sea quake

PHIVOLCS issued a tsunami information notice on Monday afternoon, July 13, saying there is no tsunami threat to the Philippines after a magnitude 6.5 earthquake in the Bismarck Sea region.

For Puerto Galera's coastal communities and travellers, the notice is an all-important clarification: no local tsunami warning or evacuation advisory follows from this PHIVOLCS information item.

Residents should still follow official PHIVOLCS, MDRRMO and barangay channels for any later update, especially during active weather or earthquake-related advisories. This draft should be updated if PHIVOLCS issues a follow-up notice.
