2 August 2007, Mw 6.1, Southern Sakhalin, Russia

This earthquake (0238 UTC) and tsunami was below the threshold for issuing an international tsunami information bulletin. For the event, the JMA issued a domestic Tsunami Attention for the northern part of the the Japan Sea Coast of Hokkaido, Japan at 0437 UTC. This was followed immediately by two Tsunami Information bulletins and a Cancellation at 0526 UTC. The PTWC issued only its unofficial, courtesy earthquake observatory message.
