 Update 16:15 UTC : Some of our readers from Hon0lulu told os they felt the quake. Honolulu is nearly 350 km northwest of the epicenter

The epicenter of this quake was approx. 7 km south of Halema’uma’u crater (Kilauea volcano) in a low populated area of Big Island. Nevertheless, the quake was felt on nearly the whole island and also in some parts of Maui.
We do not expect any serious damage from this quake.
