Ominous empty harbors: Why water recedes right before a tsunami
As the risk of tsunami waves from an 8.8 magnitude earthquake off the coast of Russia continues for the western coast of the United States, the National Weather Service is warning people not to return to areas where water appears to have receded. Weather gauges at Port San Luis, on the central coast of California, showed 'a rapid and damaging surge' of ocean water, moving from low tide to high tide within minutes, the weather service in Los Angeles said around 5 a.m. ET July 30. Powerful waves 'could return multiple times through the next 24 hours' in areas where the tide had pulled back, it said. More: Tsunami warnings, advisories issued on West Coast; What to do in threatened areas Tsunami waves arrived on the shores of Hawaii, California, Oregon, Washington and Alaska several hours after the July 29 earthquake, according to the weather service. No injuries and little damage were immediately reported. The rapid withdrawal of water from a shoreline is a common warning sign of an impending tsunami. It happens when the lowest part of the tsunami wave, known as the trough, reaches the coast first, according to the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego. As the water is pulled offshore, a larger section of the sea floor than is typical during low tide may become visible. Waves may rush in minutes later. Not all tsunamis act in the same way, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration advises. Tsunamis may arrive as a series of high-speed and receding waves. They can barrel onto the shore, like a wall of water, or appear as a fast-moving flood. The Weather Service advises those under a tsunami advisory to stay out of the water and away from beaches and waterways. Thousands of people on the coast of Thailand died during the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami after they wandered to look at the receding waves, only to be swept away as the water surged back. A 10-year-old British girl saved more than 100 people during that disaster when she alerted fellow beachgoers after she saw the waves begin to pull away, according to NOAA.

Tsunami advisory expires along California coast south of Santa Barbara County, National Weather Service says
The tsunami advisory issued along the Southern California coast on Tuesday night has expired, the National Weather Service confirmed Wednesday morning. Both the Los Angeles and San Diego field offices for the NWS confirmed that advisories expired across the entirety of the coast in Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties. As of 6:20 a.m., advisories were still in place from the southern border of Santa Barbara County and the Humboldt and Del Norte County line. The advisories were issued after a massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck near the Kamchatka Peninsula in eastern Russia around 4:30 p.m. Pacific. From then on, the entire West Coast of the U.S. was placed on a tsunami watch, later upgraded to an advisory. The advisory was also lifted in Hawaii, but not before large portions of the state were subject to evacuation orders. No major damages have been reported yet. This is a developing story. Check back for updates.

Maps show much of the U.S. under heat advisories as high temperatures continue
A large swath of the U.S. remains under active heat advisories again on Wednesday, affecting more than 140 million Americans, according to the National Weather Service. The extreme heat continues in the Midwest, the Southeast and some parts of the Northeast, though a cold front is moving through the north to cool things down there. Higher extremes are expected over most of the Southeast through the end of the week. New York City broke a record Tuesday afternoon, hitting 100 degrees Fahrenheit at La Guardia Airport. Tampa, Florida, which is usually cooled down by a sea breeze, hit a record high of 100 degrees on Sunday, local media reported. Temperatures on Wednesday are forecast to be in the high 90s for multiple cities with feels-like temperatures over 100 degrees — in some areas, feeling like 110 or higher. Health-related illnesses can increase significantly during extreme heat. It's advised to drink plenty of water and stay in air-conditioned rooms, meteorologists said. Some areas of the Rockies, Midwest and Northeast also face a risk of severe storms on Wednesday, potentially affecting cities including Denver, Kansas City, St. Louis, Chicago, Indianapolis, and along the Eastern Seaboard from Pennsylvania to Maine.
