    Wish the report can explain a bit that 2 feet Tsunami comparing to "Wave of 2 feet" is a day and night difference. Tsunami is a Mass of water surge above sea level at depth and can get even higher when it gets slow down by the ascending sea floor as it reaches land or harbor.

    Does your meteorologist know anything? Tsunamis such as this one can be generated by the force of the explosion of volcanic material exploding, and/or falling into the water. Landslides, rockfalls, and the breaking of ice into water can also cause tsunamis. It is important to know that tsunamis aren't always caused by earthquakes, as real warnings can be issued without an earthquake. I hope that everyone in the Pacific and surrounds are save, and that the ash cloud doesn't being a volcanic winter - that's the last thing we need for 2022.

    It didn't go away. If a TV meteorologist doesn't understand how Himawari 8 or any GOES bird stills get stitched together to make a repeating video loop, you might want to get your weather and tsunami information elsewhere.

    They sure did miss a beat, “nothing in the way of us being affected by this” “it is on the smaller side of earthquake generating tsunamis” “I can’t tell you if that is ash from a volcano”-of course, we now know it was a mega-event generating damaging tsunami to Peru, small tsunami events to the coast of the US, and at this point, on January 20, 2022, five days after this report, we do not know how many other islands were de esta tingly affected. It was not a “Samoa specific” hazard, as reported. But, how could they have known?
