Tsunamis are difficult to predict because the earthquakes that cause them are difficult to predict. It takes a massively powerful earthquake to displace the amount of water needed to cause a tsunami.

Are hurricanes easy or difficult to predict?
difficult
How we can save others from tsunamis?
Facing to tsunamis, I think it has been so difficult to save oneself. For others, what we do is yelling loudly, which cause their notice.
Are geologists able to measure or predict where a tsunami will occur?
No. Tsunamis are caused by earthquakes, which cannot be predicted. Some areas have been found to be more easily damaged by a tsunami, and tsunamis can be DETECTED in time to give some warning- but not predicted.
What is the most difficult weather event to predict?
a hail storm or tornado.
Are ocean tides predictable?
Tidal power is not predictable becaus eif it was we would not have natural desasters such as tsunamis, we would be fully equipt if we could predict when they occur!
What do scientist use to predict a tsunami?
They use a seismograph to predict tsunamis.
Can tidal turbines be used for tsunamis?
No. Tsunamis are too irregular and infrequent to be a reliable source of energy. Furthermore, the size of a tsunami in any given location is difficult to predict. We have turbines that can generate power from the tides or from ordinary waves, but these would liely be damaged or destroyed in a tsunami.
How do people study tsunamis?
they are caused by earthquakes and the scientist measure the earthquake magnitude and the predict.
Are hurricanes easy or difficult to predict?
difficult
What do scientists do to predict tsunamis?
they predict other natural disasters like earthquakes and see if the trembles will reach the other side of the ocean causing a tsunami.
What is the future of Africa?
The future is difficult to predict accurately (but very easy to predict inaccurately) so allow me to predict that Africa is facing a difficult future.
Is there any boards to predict tsunamis?
The best warning is detecting major offshore earthquakes. These are what trigger tsunamis. The waves build up at sea until they reach land at enormous heights.
Why is the path of a storm so difficult to predict?
it is so difficult to predict becuz sometimes the storm may be gone, weaken, or strengthen.

Are tornadoes are the most difficult from of severe weather to predict?
No, it is not

When is there gonna be a mega tsunami?
If we could predict the future, then there would be no danger from tsunamis. However, we cannot, so there is no way to tell when one will occur.
