Is this funny and cool or terrifying? I am honestly asking here.

It's not a bomb. Even a tsar bomba detonated on the ocean floor would not create a tsunami. If it was detonated deep enough to cause any kind of tectonic shift, the water pressure at that depth would completely crush it and you wouldn't even see it at the surface. Anything detonated close enough to the surface to be seen would make a large, shallow wave, but nothing even close to a tsunami.

This earthquake is among the top 10 strongest ever recorded.

The US Army has opened the Kolekole Pass for people on the western side of Oahu to head inland. Normally the road is only accessible to military personnel.

Nuclear munitions have extremely distinct seismic pulses. Very sharp pressure waves. The whole world would know the second an ground or sub service device goes off and would be screaming it from every news channel.

Notice where #5 is?

Almost the exact same area.

The KurilKamchatka Trench is notorious for very large earthquakes. Numerous high 7s, 8s, and a 9.0 have been recorded in the last 100 years.

I dont think it's anything but a fact. Planet Earth is a spinning top in space and wobbles. It has large consequences globally, but out of the several billion year history of the Earth, we only really have reliable data from maybe 100-200 years ago.

We are at still at the mercy of the Universe and physics.

What's crazy is the No 3 (sorry had No 10 ) quake easily killed the most people to date, the No4 was second in deaths… of course we don't have records very far back so their were certainly many more quakes that caused lots of problems over history …. Paging Al Gore- as he flys around in his jet

There are a lot of ships - cruise, cargo, military on the west coast. What would that feel like to ride it out on a ship?

There's a magnetic pole flip that happens every few hundred thousand years. We are due for one. While it's flipping there are pockets of reversed polarity and holes in the magnetic field.

The south Atlantic anomaly is one of these holes



Nasa watches this because if astronauts are in this region during a solar storm they could be exposed to radiation.

As holes start happening it could expose people on the ground to radiation as well. When it really starts I think it flips over a matter of decades.
No, I don't care what CNN or MSNBC said this time

The Hawaii press conference is saying they will have an update shortly on expected / estimated wave heights because the waves should be hitting Midway Island here shortly.

It's the entire west coast. I don't know why you need to bold NorCal.

It will hit at low tide. Our local met in OR is already nothing burgering this.

Because it is a warning from Cape Mendocino to Oregon.

The rest is still an advisory. Not that hard

Just adding to your assertion that it is not nuclear. It was meant for the board. Not you in particular.
