Massive eruption at Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai produces huge shockwave and tsunami

They were busting out the longboards in SoCal.

 

Isn't this the plot of a recent movie?

 

Washington still had one an hour or so ago. A friend texted me about the eruption early this morning and I thought it was going to be a disaster for somebody. I know that parts of California were getting waves 4 feet above normal, but I don't know how widespread or where that was.

 

Yeah, I saw a satellite image of the eruption this morning -- not sure if it's the one you posted, but the first thing I thought was how much power must be behind that eruption to shove that much ash from the under water that high. I don't know what the depth of the volcano is, but still ...

NSFW audio, but the audio is what it's really about (I'm guessing it's real) :



Waves look like you're in a bathtub :

 

coincidentally we had a 6.7 earthquake the day before this. then there were the great floods across southeast asia. could mother earth be up to something?

 

Stupid Celestial waking up. Call the Eternals.

Did Gaia just rip one in the bathtub?

 

Ring of Fire, and not the Johnny Cash version.

 

Alien ship blown up underwater

 

The Baker underwater detonation at Bikini Atoll. The large WWII aircraft carrier, the Saratoga, was in it and didn't sink. My father served on her for a time during the war. I think there were something like 90 warships anchored for the test. The Navy wanted to see what it would do to them. They found out.
