When will the Japan tsunami hit the west coast?
See below for a link to a list of all the expected landing times for the tsunami, from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Note from the source: This list gives estimated times of arrival for locations along the North American Pacific coast from a tsunami generated at the given source location. THE LISTING OF A TSUNAMI ARRIVAL TIME BELOW DOES NOT INDICATE A WAVE IS IMMINENT. The listed arrival time is the initial wave arrival. Tsunamis can be dangerous for many hours after arrival, and the initial wave is not necessarily the largest.

True... The Tsunami 'draws in' water - which makes the local ocean appear to vanish... before the wave hits the shoreline

Which area is in more danger of a tsunami?
The shoreline and adjacent low-lying areas are at the greatest risk.
When does the height of a tsunami increase?
The height of a tsunami increases as it gets closer to the shoreline. It sort of "rolls" up the sea floor, pushing itself higher as it does so.

Is a tornado bigger than a tsunami?
No. A tornado is at most 2.5 miles wide and only a handful have been observed at over 2 miles. A tsunami, by contrast, can impact a shoreline thousands of miles long.
