Acehtsunami

The explosion of a volcano in the Canary Islands could trigger a ”mega-tsunami” that would demolish Atlantic coastlines with waves as far above the ground as 330 feet

They said an explosion of the Cumbre Vieja volcano on La Palma, it’s a part of the Spanish island chain off West Africa, was likely to damage a massive chunk of rock to break off, crashing into the sea and kicks up vast walls of water higher than any other in recorded history.

Tsunami would be ability of traveling huge distances at up to 500 miles an hour .. But Cumbre Vieja should be monitored directly for any signs of activity so that emergency services could plan an effective response…

Although the year-to-year chance of a collapse is therefore low, the resultant tsunami would be a major disaster with indirect effects around the world.

west sahara to bear brunt

The energy released by the collapse would be equivalent to the electricity consumption of the entire United States in half a year.

Immediately after the mud slide, a dome of water 900 meters (3,000 feet high) and tens of miles wide would form, only to collapse and bounce back.

The landslide ruins moved deeper under water, a tsunami would develop. Within 10 minutes, the tsunami would have moved a distance of about 155 miles.

On the west Saharan shore, waves would almost certainly reach heights of 330 feet.

Florida and the Caribbean the final north Atlantic destination to be affected by the tsunami would have to support themselves for 165 foot waves some eight to nine hours after the landslide.

Wave heights in the direction of Europe would be smaller, but substantial waves would hit the coasts of Britain, Spain, Portugal and France.

The research paper predictable water would penetrate several miles inland and that the devastation would cause trillions of dollars in damage.
