We got the "advisory" here in the BC Gulf Islands. Advisory is the fourth level (diminishing) where we should expect little or no visible wave action. No timing is provided, as that will depend on how many miles of channels or other diversions the wave needs to navigate before getting to your specific location.My wife woke me up this morning saying “This isn’t a joke, there is a Tsunami approaching Washington.”
Turns out, that it likely will not be big enough to make it into the central Puget Sound region. However, if my boat was in a marina on the WA coast, San Juans, or Port Townsend, I’d be at the marina babysitting it.

It looks like the tsunami has hit Santa Cruz.

It`s worth reading the second news item at the foot of the one above.
There was only one related item when I read the article, it related to tsunami not Jokovic. Maybe something got added.The one about pumice on the beach...or the one about Djokovic?
The one about pumice on the beach...or the one about Djokovic?
Actually, that is well-written with lot of info.
The volcano in this Tongan eruption is above water (small island). There is another further north that is sometimes above, and sometimes below the LW mark. We sailed through a large pumice field from a small eruption of that one on the way to Fiji in the 90s.
We had a summer place (1994-2004)in Seldovia, Alaska, an isolated boardwalk town of 300 or so which was spared direct damage in the 1964 quake, except that the substrate was dropped about 8 feet and every subsequent high tide filled every home with seawater.
