Apparently the pending tsunami in Oregon....

will be devastating. Now don't think I'm well educated on this, I'm not, but what little I have read indicates that the fault lying just offshore in Oregon is massive and when it goes, just a matter of time, yikes.

Most of the coastal towns in Oregon have evacuation routes clearly designated.

Some of the guesstimates about wave heights I've read say they could reach a half mile in height. If so I'm not sure I'm safe here in central Calif. at an elevation of about 165' and 80 miles from the ocean. Should a half mile high wave hit what's to stop it from entering the bay at SF and flooding the entire Sacramento and San Joaquin Valley?

Nope, not losing sleep over it but it's interesting to ponder. - JamesJM
