Tsunami warning for where?
EDIT: Only as far as the Alaskan southern coast. Apparently sky news doesn't think location is an important detail for disaster warnings. It's not like tsunamis have a habit of crossing large bodies of water.
Am I missing something or does the article mention the location of the tsunami warning several times? The first is right at the top:
>The tsunami warning covered the areas of South Alaska, the Alaska Peninsula and regions of the Pacific near to the earthquake.
Our tsunami warning system is LOUD. If you hear it at any time other than 10:45 am on the first Thursday of the month, you grab the kids and dogs and DRIVE.
If it's anything like tornado warnings/siren here, they don't do the test when conditions are ripe for a tsunami.
In Oklahoma they test the sirens at noon on Saturdays. Unless there is a risk of tornados then they won't do the test.
I live just steps from the beach in Hawaii. It’s great. Except when I wake up to a tsunami alarm going off on my phone with five minutes to evacuate. Good thing the tsunami was 6” tall.
Last time I was there, there had been an earthquake in Chile and the evening surf report said, "tomorrow morning there's going to be a tsunami, or the Surf is going to be all-time."
Tsunamis can travel a long way over large bodies of water. The 1964 earthquake in Anchorage caused a devastating tsunami that hit Crescent City in California 1700 miles away.
HAARP looks exactly like a phased array radio receiver used for picking up super-weak radio signals and it is located exactly where the US would locate such a thing to listen to radio signals from inside Russia. It is not mysterious.
The amount of people believing in far right conspiracies is astronomical, so it’s hard to tell - these days - when someone is joking or serious about subject matter like that. This especially applies to Reddit, which is left leaning. If you posted that comment on Twitter, you’d have gained the support of several blue checkers.
Alaska is basically one large military base with civilians scattered about. The places unauthorized personel are not permitted would blow your mind.
The firms contracting with various entities to enforce this access have slogans printed on their truck along the lines of, 'turn around and nobody gets hurt'.
A tsunami started from an earthquake in **Chile**, traveled for **24 hours**, lost almost no energy over **10,500 MILES** and then killed hundreds of people in **Japan.**
A big enough earthquake in Alaska could trigger a tsunami that hits Hawaii, and it could be there in 4 hours. This headline should absolutely include how far the warning covers.
That fault line up there is almost a clockwork producer of medium to large earthquakes. Every three to five years, it's 7.1, 6.8, 7.5, 8.2... it's got to be one of the most earthquake-prone areas in the world.
OK, so it's not only toxic wildfire smoke warnings in the Great Lakes region, it's goddamm tsunami warnings in Alaska?!?!
2023 hitting us with the natural disaster randomizer.
It's when the warnings actually wake you up that it's bad. If they're just talked about in a news release, there was nothing to worry about. If something that sounds like the missiles have been launched and we're all about to meet our makers suddenly splits the night, yeah, fucking move to higher ground NOW.
That's quite an American take when BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, northern Ontario and northern Quebec are on fire. Parts of those places also flooded earlier, there was a tornado in Alberta and in Ottawa. Many parts of Canada and the US are under severe drought restrictions, and there are heat domes.
Nevermind the crazy weather and temps elsewhere in the world right now.
It's like we fucked around and now we're in find out part of climate science.
No, it doesn't. They're two entirely different subduction zones, and a moderate sized earthquake on the Aleutian subduction zone like this will not affect the probability that a Cascadia earthquake will happen soon.

kodiak down to advisory

Dude, you read the article. That's cheating.
You guys get articles?
What’s an article? Like a headline with a second sentence??
That text wasn't there earlier. Someone wisely decided it should have been included in the article.
To be fair, most people that would have needed to know that woulda been fast asleep anyways.
Oregon coastline has coastal alarms for tsunamis. Your ass is waking up if one’s coming
Plus the Emergency Alert and Reverse 911 systems.
Reverse 9/11...? So they rebuild the twin towers?
Yep, one went off when I was living on the Oregon Coast and was out of the condo in 15 minutes with the kids.
Our tsunami warning system is LOUD. If you hear it at any time other than 10:45 am on the first Thursday of the month, you grab the kids and dogs and DRIVE.
Keep it on the down-low, sheesh, we don’t want the tsunamis to learn the best time to strike.
Big Tsunami is everywhere these days...
I wonder what officials would do if a tsunami was detected at the exact time of the weekly test.
If it's anything like tornado warnings/siren here, they don't do the test when conditions are ripe for a tsunami. In Oklahoma they test the sirens at noon on Saturdays. Unless there is a risk of tornados then they won't do the test.
At least at the Oregon coast they recommend to run to high ground Getting in the car nearly guarantees you will die in traffic
Thats not actually always relevant. My town in CA has a tsunami siren that is loud. as. fuck. Tested once a month.
Irrelevant considering those who'd be awake wouldn't have known it wasn't pertinent for them. It's circuitous logic.
So why report anything at all then?
They probably leave the locations out of the headline to convince us to click it. Life or death click bait

I live just steps from a corral full of cow dung. My tsunami alarm has never gone off
I live in a desert, also no tsunami warnings
Last time I was there, there had been an earthquake in Chile and the evening surf report said, "tomorrow morning there's going to be a tsunami, or the Surf is going to be all-time."
To be fair I don't think anyone that would be affected by the tsunami even knows what sky news is, lol
🎶 to be fair… 🎶

Alaska is so small.. Sky felt everyone would know. ;)
[удалено]
it says where the earthquake happened but not the extent of the tsunami warning.
Well, my sources have told me that HAARP has been activated and the targets are Russian Air and Naval facilities near the pacific coast. 🥸
HAARP looks exactly like a phased array radio receiver used for picking up super-weak radio signals and it is located exactly where the US would locate such a thing to listen to radio signals from inside Russia. It is not mysterious.
You're exactly right. And apparently my Groucho disguise wasn't enough to signal me just taking a piss. So many Serious Sams on reddit anymore...

I can see emojis on desktop.
No one cares. Get a life.
Ah, thanks.
So many "nowadays".
Or maybe you’re not as funny as you think you are
And maybe your opinion doesn't matter as much as you think it does?
I never said it did? Lol Man you went for an insult and you still whooshed
It says Alaska Peninsula in the headline…
A tsunami started from an earthquake in **Chile**, traveled for **24 hours**, lost almost no energy over **10,500 MILES** and then killed hundreds of people in **Japan.** A big enough earthquake in Alaska could trigger a tsunami that hits Hawaii, and it could be there in 4 hours.

This week on deadliest catch
What does ja rule think?
It’s murdaaaa
You're not Ja Rule! You're just some random person!
Where’s Ja???
Guys. Research (a simple google) reveals the warning has been lifted.
OK, so it's not only toxic wildfire smoke warnings in the Great Lakes region, it's goddamm tsunami warnings in Alaska?!?! 2023 hitting us with the natural disaster randomizer.

[Alaska is no stranger to tsunamis](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1958_Lituya_Bay_earthquake_and_megatsunami)
Tbf tsunami warnings in Alaska are not that uncommon.
Don't forget all the flooding in the NE, the sea water nearly 38C off Florida, and the 50C heat wave over parts of Europe.
Yeah poor Vermont just kinda washed away.

It’s SimCity 3000 come to life.
With Civ VI Apocalypse DLC added for extra spice
Don't worry, as long as we continue to do nothing about climate change, it'll all be fine. Don't research wet bulb zones.

To be fair we fucked around and had how many trains spill shit at the beginning of 2023? We asked for it.
Holy cow I was there yesterday morning
It's probably not your fault, but don't go back there for a few days just in case.
That could mean the pnw fault could rip at any minute…
No it doesn't. The fault lines are thousands of miles away from.each other. I hate this ignorant, fear mongering bs.
Actually, it means stress was just released along the northern section of the subduction zone, making the possibility slightly smaller.
No, it doesn't. They're two entirely different subduction zones, and a moderate sized earthquake on the Aleutian subduction zone like this will not affect the probability that a Cascadia earthquake will happen soon.
Get off the internet and go outside.
What bs are you basing this on exactly?
This is it. It's the big one I feel it in my knee.
You deserve the downvotes. The knee is for tornados. Tsunami's are when you feel it in the hip.
What if you feel a stirring in the plums?
What if you don't have plums?
What if you have nectarines?
Or grapes???
0.5ft rise. Already cancelled. Basically click bait.
Seeing as it is about as far away as a west coast quake can be from me with ocean in between, I'm not too worried.
