But thank you anyway.
On the plus side, my wife spoke with my Mom in Vic and they aren't expecting more than a couple of feet higher waves than usual.
Wow, that sure is a display of the power of water.

It's not only the higher than normal water with a Tsunami, it's how long the water remains that height. Normal 2 foot waves will crash on the shore and dissipate, but a tsunami wave may have another half mile of water behind it pushing.

My friend in Victoria thought the same, and just informed me it is NOT.
