Yes, tsunamis often follow specific patterns related to their causes, such as undersea earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides. They typically travel across oceans at high speeds and can reach coastal areas within minutes to hours, depending on the distance from the source. Tsunamis tend to occur along tectonic plate boundaries, particularly in the Pacific Ring of Fire, where seismic activity is prevalent. Additionally, they can exhibit multiple waves, with the first wave not always being the largest, leading to unpredictable impacts on affected Coastlines.
