What I had never really thought about/knew about before was how fast a tsunami can travel over an ocean. It is roughly 5,500 miles (from Japan to LA) and I think it took about 11 hours for the waves to arrive (if my memory is correct). This means the waves traveled at 500 MPH, which is consistent to what I see in a quick web search on the speed of a tsunami.
Wow.
