Cancellation of Potential Tsunami Threat Advisory
Based on an assessment of the Tsunami activity experienced up to now, we can now cancel the Potential Threat Advisory. However the public should remain cautious of continuing strong currents for the rest of the day and early evening. Currents may be particulary strong between Hokitika and Karamea.
