bluewave Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Its really cool to see the small tsunami at the regional tide gauges. Tsunami-like waves were observed along the US east coast during the afternoon of June 13, 2013 (day 164). The source is complex and still under review, though the coincidence at several gages with strong atmospheric pressure fluctuations indicate that it is at least partly generated by meteorological causes. The event occurred in close conjunction with a weather system labeled by the National Weather Service as a low-end derecho which propagated from west to east over the New Jersey shore just before the tsunami. It is also possible that the slumping at the continental shelf east of New Jersey played a role. The tsunami was observed at over 30 tide gages and one DART buoy throughout the Northwestern Atlantic Ocean. http://oldwcatwc.arh.noaa.gov/previous.events/06-13-13/index.php Daytona also had a squall driven tsunami back in 1992 that was bigger. http://www.apnewsarchive.com/1992/Scientists-Rogue-Wave-Caused-by-Powerful-Squall/id-081e799adaf18e4c280a944050915427 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
