July 13, 2023, 12:01 PM HST * Updated July 13, 1:42 PM

There is no threat of a tsunami for the Big Island or any of the Hawaiian Islands after an initial 4.6-magnitude earthquake struck in the ocean depths northeast of Maui. The earthquake occurred at 11:29 am on Thursday.

The Hawaii Volcano Observatory said the quake occurred 55 miles northeast of Paʻauilo on the island of Hawaii at a depth of 15 miles below sea level. The earthquake had no apparent effect on the volcanoes of Mauna Loa or Kulauea. But aftershocks are likely in the coming days or weeks.

Deep earthquakes north of the island of Hawaii are usually the result of flexing of the oceanic crust and fragile underlying mantle due to the weight of the islands. This earthquake fits the pattern of previous earthquakes related to oceanic lithosphere deflection.
