Summary[edit]

Description
English: The wave came up over the seawall and the asphalt, flooding this swimming pool. A leading tsunami depression wave that withdrew about 25 m was followed by a tsunami wave from the southeast with a measured runup of 1.6 meters. The septic system was flooded as the wave came in, causing a back-flushing of toilets and sinks. Several small boats were pulled out to sea, and two were lost. Wooden benches and other debris washed up on the beach. There was a permanent sea level rise relative to the small pier, indicating local subsidence of 15-20 cm.
