IF and that’s a big IF, the west face sluffs off, there will be about an 8 hour lapse before it starts hitting the east coast. ALL of the east coast. Not just FL. Read someplace recently the tsunami could travel as far as 12 miles inland. Wiki link to Cumbre Vieja tsunami info:

Wherever I go I hope there’s rum!
150 ft tsunami hitting east coast of US. Way more than 12 miles inland.
Cannot happen.
So that would be a bad thing, right?
Parrot head! We got ourselves a parrot head.
Bmk.
Now, I don’t know, I don’t know where I’m a gonna go
when the volcano blow.
Let me say it now,
I don’t know, I don’t know where I’m a gonna go
when the volcano blow.
Ground, she movin’ under me.
Tidal waves out on the sea.
Sulphur smoke up in the sky.
Pretty soon we learn to fly
Don’t tease...
12 miles? Cool, I’m about 20 miles as the crow flies inland from the beach. No worries then.
The side has to collapse first
There is a big crack in the ground
it did like 300,000 years ago
Oh yeah, I’m familiar with the threat.
“Cannot happen.”
Agree, I’m a normalcy bias type too, and so if it hasn’t yet happened, then it cannot happen.
i might have beachfront property?!
Wave travels inland until it hits a landmass equal to the wave height - its called a standing wave. Its a wave caused by displacement, rather than the usual subduction wave tsunami, which is a subsurface wave - standing waves travel across the surface of the ocean equal in height to the mass of the material that displaced the water.
See Latuya Bay AK
150 feet?
I dont thinks so. More like 30 to 40 feet which is huge.
The farther it travels the less the height.
At 40 feet, it will get inland for quite a ways. Now NYC? THAT would get interesting since the water will do weird stuff in that channel.
