They say only that there is no tsunami threat for the western U.S., British Columbia, and Alaska from this earthquake. Has any tsunami activity from the earthquake been reported in Indonesia yet?

No, and they're won't be. According to the PTWC's site, the earthquake (and others in that area) was too deep to have any tsunami threat associated with it.

http://www.prh.noaa.gov/pr/ptwc/bulletins.htm

The Indian Ocean bulletin is an old one, which means absolutely 0 threat from this quake in the IO. The Pacific bulletin has all of the information on this quake. (And ironically, they say in the Pacific bulletin that this was outside of the Pacific basin. Not sure what ocean you would consider it to be in, then :?: :roll: )
