    Calling this a “Tsunami” is a bit thick.

      While traditional tsunamis are caused by seafloor movement like earthquakes, meteotsunamis are linked to fast-moving weather conditions such as thunderstorms and are much smaller.

        I know what a meteotsunami is. But what I saw was a but underwhelming.

          Basically the very thing that is wrong with democratic social media, summed up in 2 comments.
