Just a heads up in case you don’t like to see people distressed. Tsunami advisory in effect for u.s West coast after volcanic eruption 'a tsunami advisory is in effect for the following areas stretching from southern california to alaska, according to the warning center' Approximately 230,000 people died in the 2004 indian ocean earthquake and tsunami, making it one of the deadliest disasters in modern history. So although the tsunami wave was estimated to be 30 feet which would have allowed the sea wall to be relatively effective, it had dropped in height which allowed the tidal wave to overtake it
The back half of the wave moves much faster so it just continued to push and push more water. Any tsunami video i look at barely looks like a 20 feet wave hitting shore But wikipedia tells me there have been dozens of 100+ feet tsunamis even in the last 10 years. Tsunami doesn't prevent action, only restrict movement to difficult swimming Raw, they could still shoot arrows, cast spells, and all sorts of other things As dm you might justify giving those rolls disadvantage, but they can still be performed
It could be worse than predicted, study says Iirc, what made the 2011 tsunami so devastating was that initial reports underestimated the height of the waves and many didn't heed the evacuation warnings until it was too late Hopefully we won't see a repeat of that mistake here. Tsunami waves have such a low frequency and high amplitude a better comparison might be rolling foothills If you saw a tsunami coming towards you, say 50ft waves, would it be better to run towards land, or just stay where you are to dive in and swim upwards So waves are coming at you, better to run away, or stay deeper out if you are a good swimmer
