EXCERPT

A separate earthquake of magnitude-4.0 shook the San Bernardino Mountains resort town of Big Bear City early Wednesday about 100 miles east of Los Angeles. There were no reports of any damages or injuries from the quake, which struck shortly before 4:15 a.m., a dispatcher with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said.

A tsunami warning was canceled early Wednesday for Alaska's coasts after officials determined waves from the earthquake posed no widespread destructive threat.
