I am amazed at how little information is in this report. Lots of pictures of boats that were tossed about, but not even a picture of the height of the wave in Santa Cruz or Crescent City. Not even a mention in the text of the height when it finally reached here.

because Tsunami means Tsu- Harbor Wave, the people of the united states have been mislead for 100′s of years of poor quality teachers in our college system. They have made it sound like a tidal wave that destroys. Wrong again.
These are surgeing waves that are not very high its a rolling effect!
