Tonga's Incredible Underwater Volcano Eruption Seen From Space - By Nancy_A
On Tonga, home to about 105,000 people, videos posted to social media showed swirling, fast moving clouds of ash. This video from Fiji, about 470 miles away has an incredibly large sonic boom heard from the shockwave. Reports of sonic booms were reported as far away as New Zealand, Alaska and Canada. Tsunami advisories were issued for nearby Tonga, as well as for Japan, Hawaii, Alaska and the U.S. Pacific coast. Some flooding in southern California has been reported.
Wow this is terrifying, the type of sonic boom you hope you never hear. That is a staggering pressure spike. [NSFW language]shared from Facebook by
