According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, the earthquake was located “too deep inside the earth” to generate tsunami concerns.

The earthquake was reported about 25 miles northwest of Guam in the Pacific Ocean.

The U.S. territory is located about 4,000 miles west of Hawaii and 1,600 miles southeast of Japan.
