Videos show flooding, damage after tsunami waves hit San Francisco Bay Area

An undersea volcano erupted in near the Pacific nation of Tonga, sending tsunami waves crashing across the shore and people rushing to higher ground. More than 5,300 miles away, the Bay Area saw its impact.

Here in Japan, we get tsunami alert from earthquakes happening in Southern America. However, this tsunami was a totally new type and the experts did not know enough about this type. Japan has sensors to detect tsunamis in several places in the ocean but the sensors are not made to detect air pressure differences.

No vaccine is really 100% effective, though some like the polio vaccine goes from 90% after 1 does to 99-99.99% after 2-3 doses, being effectively 100% effective. However because of anti-vax nonsense from people who "did their own research" polio has made a comeback in Pakistan, while Measles has done the same in the US. Smallpox was reduced in spread and harm staring by inoculation (starting in the 16th century) and then later vaccination and it killed 800 million people in the 19th and 20th centuries and certainly billions in the thousands of years it affected humans. It was wiped out worldwide in 1980 by a global vaccination campaign. Do you consider yourself pro-plague?

The world is not mad at us lol

I wonder when these waves hit Pacifica and SF? What time in PST?

[@rissanen1957]

I lived in Capitola right next to the bridge at the Capitola Venetian. Usually this time of year we get floods and every thing is going the opposite direction.

The minor taste that was given to the west coast is significant to show the power of the underwater volcano. Had it been above the surface I dare say it would have been relevant to Krakatowa's eruption. Thus, it would have been probably on the order of a 1000 times worse for everyone. Go back in history and review. And be glad it was underwater.

[@jbrownjetmech-4783]

Some poor little fishy was just floatin' around and then!?!?!?

[@randmayfield5695]

Pretty strong statements that may have merit if they can be backed up by supporting facts. Krakatoa? 1000 times? Okay, citations please.

[@Electronic424]

Krakatoa's eruption was above the surface mostly and threw 100+ foot tsunami waves locally (mostly from landslides), this one was undersea (which should've displace more water proportionally) and only 4 foot waves in nearby Tonga. So I'd guess around 25x less energy at a minimum.

[@redcandi01]

@@jbrownjetmech-4783 I bet the sea life can sense that though.... there has to be a change in some kind of condition... like the tremors before alerted them or the temp changed... man it's time to do some research because I'm very curious🤔🤷🏾‍♀️

Warning shot for the big one. These people are in denial

[@prosodiclearning]

This volcano is a super-volcano with a crater 20 km's across...A really big bang ! - and a tsunami will pass through both the Waitemata and Manukau Harbours, and drown half the million people living in South Auckland. Most of South Auckland is only a few metres above sea-level

[@Syclone0044]

It’s all relative. The sun will eventually enter the red giant state of its star lifecycle and engulf the earth.

[@jackiemack8653]

Yup the beginning of the end. Time of sorrows.

@@JCTHEKIDDD The Mahuika meteor, around the 13th century, destroyed life on all islands except for the Chathams which it crossed low over. Norfolk, Lord Howe (e rua nga pa) all wiped out

[@nicksmith7719]

I'm a friend of mine that's in the Navy and he's stationed in San Francisco. He said there wasn't even a 2 foot wave that hit the West Coast. I don't know if you can call that a tsunami but what happened to all these other places is devastating.

[@rippitallout149]

1" of rain is a crisis now a days and needs panic and hysteria! So a 2 foot wave is a TSUNAMI of Tectonic proportions!!

[@kingofall9262]

God bless all that were affected by this. Stay safe.

[@goodstufffromdavidpaul2246]

Consider the eventual movement of the American Coastal Subduction.... North of SF to Vancouver...no one will be filming.

In other words now the ocean has sf needles and ppo

A gigantic tsunami hitting California would be a start to cleaning up the state & washing away the garbage!

[@davidwood7530]

I lived on a sailboat for a year-and-a-half in Tiburon I had experienced similar waves back in the late 90s

[@mikeyh0]

Of course. This is called nature. And she's a mother.

[@tyger805]

This earth is amazing. People don't respect it sometimes. And they try to blame "end of the world times." It has been going on for billions of year's folks.

[@forthefunofit3230]

'sometimes'???? get a clue---humans been doing that ever since, well, since humans became aware....

[@upnorthviking823]

With cycles in regards to what lives and what doesnt!

[@djentleman7]

Honestly you guys should have evacuated inland just to be safe. No one can estimate perfectly how powerful its going to be.

[@laartwork]

Yeah when they get a warning and decide "cool I will film this" ... hard to feel bad when they get swept away next time.

This time it wasn't bad but wait for the next one

ALERTA TSUNAMI 🌊🌊POWERFUL BENDICIONES MY FRIENDS 🙏

[@Dave-sw2dm]

Looks like normal waves on the east coast of Florida. Did they really rescue surfers in San Francisco, or force them out of the water "for their own safety"?

[@cindytackett7106]

Here on the Oregon Coast (Heceta) Lighthouse. Beaches remained opened. Est 2-3 feet waves. The only concern is for "Sneaker Waves" which are common. I walked for 2 hours on the beach with no issues. This Tsunami alert was a wonderful distraction from all the bs we are forced to deal with these days. Peace Out

[@kiadel7502]

Why people are not getting in a safe place knowing that a tsunami is coming?

[@forthefunofit3230]

it's called STUPIDITY and they are wanting the darwin award!!!

Beautiful ☺

I was expecting more with all the hype. This is the result one might see from a good storm but without the wind and rain.

crazy how one single point of source (the vulcano) can cause this even thousands of kms away
