YesterdayA 7.6 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of the Cayman Islands, shaking homes, triggering panic, and sparking tsunami warnings across multiple nations.
For a moment, it looked like a disaster was imminent.
Governments rushed to issue evacuation orders, warning that waves as high as 10 feet could strike the coastline.
People fled to higher ground, bracing for what could have been a catastrophic tsunami—one powerful enough to wipe out coastal communities.
Then, just hours later, the tsunami threat was lifted. The Caribbean was spared.
