Potential U.S. East Coast Megatsunami - Possible Volcanic Eruption On El Hierro In Canary Islands
If there's ever news of a massive landslide in the Canary Islands, likely in association with a volcanic eruption, the entire U.S. East Coast will have about 6-8 hours to evacuate inland before a potential megatsunami hits which means a tidal wave possibly hundreds of feet high. This is a little known natural disaster threat that is now becoming all too close for comfort as a volcanic eruption appears imminent on the El Hierro island that triggered a megatsunami ~50,000 years ago.

El Hierro doesn't cause tsunamis.

The volcano that causes tsunamis is Cumbre Vieja, of Isla de La Palma in the Canary Islands.

That's what I thought as well, but upon further research I found that EL Hierro has a history of causing landslides and megatsunamis. The last major occurrence was ~50,000 years ago.

Google "El Golfo" and "mega tsunami".

I must say, given the "doomsayer" character of this forum, it is quite surprising there are no pinned threads on this topic. From a contrarian standpoint, this is actually somewhat alarming.

Do we have any confirmation that the volcano has gone off? If so it's about time. I suggest pin so that everyone can come in to this thread and confirm whether this is occurring and get more info on the eruption. I'm seeing people posting pictures of the eruption...

I'm not aware of an eruption occurring at this point.

One can keep updated via Twitter, but it helps if you speak Spanish:

BTW, for those who doubt that El Hierro poses a risk for a landslide and megatsunami, here is an image for the historical record of the Canary Islands:

Bull shit.

El Hierro can't cause any tsunami. Only Cumbre Vieja can. Cumbre Vieja is another volcano in the Canary islands. And Cumbre Vieja is not "about to blow".

This is an animation of a tsunami from La Palma hitting Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina.

It doesn't show how far inland the water would go... does anyone know of a simulation that shows this?

6-8 hours? At least that's some warning for those on the east coast who are watching. But, many would die as there is no way even half could be evacuated from the major metro areas.
