The tsunami warning for the B.C. coast has been cancelled.

A tsunami warning was issued early this morning after a powerful quake this morning in the Gulf of Alaska.

The 7.9 was felt all the way to Anchorage.

The National Weather Service sent a message to cellphones in Alaska warning: ``Emergency Alert. Tsunami danger on the coast. Go to high ground or move inland.''

Residents living in low lying areas  of Tofino, B.C. ran to a community centre until they received the all clear.
