Seismological devices all around the world detected this. Hardly a sensational title: it was a 110 meter tsunami bouncing around between two fjords for 9 days! This is roughly the planetary equivalent of when you're a kid in the bath tub and you start getting tiny waves to go back and forth between two ends of the tub until you finally make a mess, only that initial wave is 110 meters high!
- blackeyeblitzar 2y agoThose devices detecting it isn’t the same as what people expect when you read “shook earth”. They are after all, sensitive devices. And the height of the tsunami isn’t that interesting given the geography of the fjord. The historical records for high water marks tend to always be set in fjords.
