The west coast of the US is more vulnerable to tsunamis than the east coast because tsunamis are more likely to be generated in the Pacific Ocean due to tectonic plate movements along the Ring of Fire. The Pacific Plate is subducting beneath the North American Plate along the west coast, which can lead to large underwater earthquakes that trigger tsunamis. Additionally, the Pacific Ocean is much deeper than the Atlantic Ocean, allowing tsunamis to travel faster and with more energy.
