Tsunami Drill SoCal

Anyone see this, or hear anything yesterday? Maybe someone was on the water and seen something going on? Just curious. Thinking about a Tsunami is kind of concerning, especially in a tiny plastic boat!!

I could be wrong on this but I believe depending on the waves amplitude, if you are out deep enough you'd actually be safer on the water than on land. In this case I think it rolls under you like a really big swell The good news is there are a lot of places 100' above sea level really close to the shore in CA. If a tsunami were to hit say florida or louisiana, it would reach much further inland and destroy a much larger area. check out the graphic on this page and hit play. http://science.howstuffworks.com/nat...s/tsunami3.htm
This is from the bottom of that page actually:
" tsunami's ability to maintain speed is directly influenced by the depth of the water. A tsunami moves faster in deeper water and slower in shallower water. So unlike a normal wave, the driving energy of a tsunami moves through the water as opposed to on top of it. Therefore, as a tsunami moves though deep water at hundreds of miles an hour, it is barely noticeable above the waterline. A tsunami is typically no more than 3 feet (1 meter) high until it gets close to shore."

In summary, the answer to tsunami safety is to never stop kayak fishing deep water.

Omg, this tsunami drill thing made me think of this verse.

Everyone dies sooner or later. If it be by tsunami, then so be it.
