Major tsunamis threatened in the Pacific Ocean.

Súnámaithe móra á mbagairt san Aigéan Ciúin.

It is considered one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded.

Áirítear é bheith ar cheann de na creathanna talún is láidre a ndearnadh taifead riamh air.

Countries and regions in the North Pacific remain on high alert, including the west coast of the United States.

Tá tíortha agus réigiúin i dtuaisceart an Aigéin Chiúin fós ar a n-airdeall, cósta thiar na Stát Aontaithe san áireamh.

Large tsunami waves have already made landfall in the Kamchatka region of Russia and the American state of Hawaii, 3,000 miles offshore west of California.

Tá tonnta móra súnámaithe cheana féin tar éis briseadh i dtír i réigiún Kamchatka sa Rúis agus i stát Meiriceánach Hawaii, 3,000 míle i bhfarraige siar ó California.

However, it is understood that the worst of this is now over.

Tuigtear áfach go bhfuil an chuid is measa de seo thart anois.

Residents in Hawaii who had been warned have been told that it is now safe for them to return to their homes.

Dúradh le háitritheoirí i Hawaii a raibh fainic curtha orthu, go bhfuil sé sábháilte dóibh anois filleadh ar a dtithe cónaithe.

Nearly 2m people were also warned to leave their homes in Japan.

Bhí rabhadh tugtha freisin do bheagnach 2m duine a dtithe cónaithe a fhágáil sa tSeapáin.

This earthquake off the east coast of Russia had a magnitude of 8.8 on the Richter scale.

8.8 an chumhacht ar an scála richter a bhí ag an gcrith talún seo amach ó chósta thoir na Rúise.
