💨 Abstract

A magnitude 7.4 earthquake hit off Chile's coast in the Drake Passage, causing a tsunami threat. The Chilean government issued evacuation orders along the southern coast, with around 2,000 people evacuated. There was no reported damage to critical infrastructure or people. The tsunami caused a 6-centimeter sea level change in Antarctica, with possible variations of up to 90 centimeters.
