https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/tsunami/plot.html?stnid=94... So far so good.
Could you clarify what you mean by "good" here? I see a sine wave when I click now, with an amplitude of about .75 meters.
Tsunami.gov couldn't handle the load, and many other official links (like mobile.weather.gov) just dump you into a government shutdown notice. Cell.weather.gov isn't even resolving.
I'm sure someone thought the critical products would still be easily available even with a government shutdown, it sure didn't work out that way.
Wow 15 hours to australia, that thing is moving fast.
Will this wave affect boats? Imagine being on a yacht in the middle of the Pacific (not Atlantic Doh!) when a 10m wave moving at 20m/s hits (figures not accurate just guesses)
Since the danger seems to be receding -- I hope NWS & related agencies can use this as a good drill to fix their web properties.

Tsunami Watch for #SF. If you are w/in SF & 3 blocks of the Pacific Coast or w/in 5 blocks of SF Bay, PREPARE TO EVACUATE SO YOU ARE READY IF EVACUATION IS NEEDED. Check on neighbors…

We like to laugh about the Tuesday siren tests, but times like this are why we do them. If a tsunami really does hit WA and OR expect the waterfront sirens to make a pre-dawn announcement.

Earlier quoted context omitted.
There probably won't be 10m waves in the middle of the ocean. The waves will only be a few inches tall, but moving FAST. Then they get dramatically taller as they are forced to slow down in shallow water.
This is the North Pacific in Winter. I'd be surprised if there weren't 10m waves out there.
