Key information extracted from original GTS message :

Evaluation

An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.9 occurred in the SOLOMON ISLANDS at 0430 UTC on sunday JANUARY 22 2017
Based on all available data hazardous TSUNAMI waves are forecast for some coasts

Threat Forecast

TSUNAMI waves reaching 0.3 to 1 meters above the tide level are possible for some coasts of SOLOMON ISLANDS and PAPUA NEW guinea.
No TSUNAMI threat for all other areas.
Actual amplitudes at the coast MAY vary from forecast amplitudes due to uncertainties in the forecast and local features. in particular maximum TSUNAMI amplitudes on atolls and at locations with fringing or barrier reefs will likely be much smaller than the forecast indicates.
For other areas covered by this product a forecast has not yet been computed. the forecast will be expanded if necessary in subsequent products.
