It will be different according to how big the tsunami is. There is no simple answer to your question.

Do tsunamis have high or low air pressure?
Considering a tsunami is a never ending wall of water and debris that crush everything in their path, I would say they were high pressure, but that is water, not air pressure.
About what is the air pressure during a tsunami?
Air pressure is not a factor in tsunami formation. Tsunamis usually originate from undersea earthquakes and landslides.
How much Pressure can a Tsunami give?
nothing
How does the depth of sea affect a tsunami?
The wave generated by a tsunami is really a large swell. Swells continue along until they meet the resistance of shallowing water. When the depth of the water can no longer handle the volume of water, the wave will rise up on top of the sand in shallower water and break. If the land form creates a gentle slope then the tsunami will appear as a very strong tidal flow. If the shore is steep then the swell will rise up and break against the beach. Most damage is not done by a large crashing wave, but by the sheer volume of water that is flowing onto the land and carrying debris along with it.
What are tsunami's made of?
Yes. A tsunami consists of large waves or surges of water.

Does it rain when there is tsunami?
it is unrelated. a tsunami happens when the tectonic plates under the seabed moves and creates a hole. this movement creates a difference in pressure and hence the water goes in inside the hole. as the pressure builds in inside the hole, a large body of water bursts out. That is a tsunami rain happens when the water vapor in the cloud is too much and because of condensation, the water vapor drops as rain. it is unrelated.
What is the definition of a video tsunami?
There is no definition of a video tsunami. However, a tsunami is a very large wave that builds up enough pressure, and enough water to potentially harm people. One can see videos of tsunamis on YouTube.
About what is the air pressure during a tsunami?
Air pressure is not a factor in tsunami formation. Tsunamis usually originate from undersea earthquakes and landslides.
What is Average home water pressure?
Depending where you live in the world, in South Africa, the average water pressure is between 400 to 600 kpa.
How is a tsunami wave detected?
A tsunami wave can be detected by a wave gauge and pressure monitors.
What is the term for an water wave created by an earthquake?
its called a tsunami
How much Pressure can a Tsunami give?
nothing
How does a tsunami effect the environment?
a tsunami effects the environment by change
What are the steps of a tsunami?
Tsunami do not have steps, they are a water wave.
