LIVE UPDATES: Tsunami warnings, watches, advisories were given to 1/4 of the Earth after 8.8 quake

The San Francisco Bay Ferry system will be operating normal service on Wednesday despite a tsunami advisory issued for the California coast following a powerful earthquake off Russia.

Around 6:15 a.m., officials with the ferry system said on social media that there were no service impacts or reported damage. Commuters can expect its standard operations to be running across all ferry routes serving the Bay Area.

Tsunami waves reached San Francisco's coast at approximately 1:12 a.m., according to the National Weather Service. Earlier activity was detected in Crescent City and Humboldt Bay around 12:45 a.m., followed by Monterey at 12:50 a.m.

The National Tsunami Warning Center issued the advisory on Tuesday after a magnitude 8.7 earthquake struck off Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula. The advisory covers coastal counties from Mendocino to Monterey.

No major damage has been reported in California as of 6 a.m. Wednesday.

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said the threat of a major tsunami hitting the United States "has passed completely."

Noem, speaking in Chile where she is attending meetings with officials, told reporters in the capital, Santiago: "We're in really good shape right now. We were fully deployed and ready to respond if necessary, but grateful that we didn't have to deal with the situation that this could have been."

The Tsunami danger appeared to also be lessening with authorities in Hawaii and parts of Japan and Russia downgrading their warnings.

Russian authorities on the Kamchatka Peninsula and Kuril Islands have canceled their tsunami warnings but say the risk of aftershocks and waves remains.

The regional branch of Russia's Emergency Ministry on Kamchatka warned that scientists expect aftershocks at magnitudes of up to 7.5. It said that more tsunamis are possible in the Avacha Bay where the regional capital of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky is located.

If you have a flight to Hawaii on Wednesday, check the status before you go.

Honolulu International Airport is recovering from all flights being stopped temporarily Tuesday night after the tsunami was triggered.

According to Flight Aware, two United flights from SFO and a Southwest flight from San Jose were turned around and returned to the Bay Area.

Honolulu's airport is reporting multiple delays and cancellations on Wednesday morning.

Tsunami waves reached the San Francisco coast early Wednesday morning, according to the National Weather Service, as California coastal communities continue to monitor rising wave activity following a massive offshore earthquake off Russia.

The initial tsunami activity in San Francisco was detected at 1:12 a.m., the NWS said on social media posts.

The Northern California tsunami activity began in Crescent City and Humboldt Bay around 12:45 a.m. Tsunami waves then reached Monterey at 12:50 a.m.

Forecasters warn that waves will likely build through the night and become more dangerous near high tide. No major damage has been reported, as of 1:30 a.m.

The National Tsunami Warning Center issued a Tsunami Advisory on Tuesday evening after a powerful 8.7 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula. The advisory covers coastal areas from Mendocino County to Monterey County.

The California Governor's Office of Emergency Services has deployed rescue teams to Del Norte and San Luis Obispo counties.
