Deep inland on the coastal plain might get wet but once you cross the fall line into the Piedmont the elevations are sufficient to keep ones toes dry.

I live in Manhattan and am in the first building over from the East River/Estuary. I don’t have a car. I’d sit on my balcony finishing my booze.

From the end of the blog post. Feel better.

As many ocean island volcanoes by nature, the La Palma Island is prone to catastrophic flank failure events. The flanks of accumulated rock masses become unstable over time and sometimes slide down into the ocean as giant landslides along large detachment faults, triggering potentially huge tsunamis.

While it it true that such events have occurred in the past on most of the Canary Islands, it is important to note that these events are rare and occurred at large time intervals spanning many tens of thousands of years. It has often been speculated that La Palma's western flank is a good candidate for such an event in the future. Unfortunately, most media are driven by sensationalism and report about it as if there was strong evidence that such a partial collapse of La Palma could occur in the somewhat near future - including potential horror scenarios such as mega-tsunamis devastating the east coast of the US. Fortunately, there is no scientific evidence to support this picture. Like with other catastrophic events in nature (large asteroid impacts, super-volcano eruptions etc), they are first of all, extremely rare.

There is little to prevent them from happening, little to do against them, relatively little known about them, but from a pragmatic point of view, there is no reason to worry about them more than a 100 years ago, and currently no reason to believe we're in for one in the foreseeable future.

Its also a deep trench off western side so material drop if tgat happens is deeper than you’d think so slide material will have higher momentum which is part of reason waves would be so high. They had a tv show a out this very situation a few years ago. The wave damage went hundreds of miles inland and a good part of the area impacted would be scoured clean. Deaths in the 10s of millions.

I think the destruction was as far west as Tennessee, Mississippi and Kentucky and tge damage in those states even in tge western parts would be massive.
