You’re probably not familiar with La Palma yet. But you will be hearing about it soon.

Not a chance, op.

There’s no way la Palma will impact the US east coast and dc in any meaningful way in our lifetime.

Also, I'm confused about this little nugget. It says 30-40 miles from the coast. DC is over 80 miles from the ocean.

Cluster earthquakes are not actually a bad thing, it’s the way the earth releases tension in spurts instead of one large earthquake which would be disastrous.

Think of the word Bay:

a broad inlet of the sea where the land curves inward.

I think you are forgetting that that any surge will come up the Chesapeake Bay. Think about hurricanes driving water up the Galveston Bay.

The Chesapeake bay turns up at an angle from the ocean. Yes, a significant surge could push into the bay, but that water has to do a lot of twists and turns before it makes it to DC. A tsunami isn’t going to be able to maintain a lot of force up the bay and then up the meandering Potomac to DC. It’s not like hurricane force winds pointed in the exact right direction over a sustained period of time.
