31 miles is 163,680 feet. At that altitude, there is almost no air pressure, and it is intensely cold. Your tsunami would attempt to boil (due to low air pressure) while it was freezing (about -90 degrees F). The falling ice would probably go a few hundred miles inland. Interesting question, though. Why 31 miles high?
What else can I help you with?
How tall was the 04 tsunami in Thailand?
they reached up to thirty feet, and only ended up being like 6 feet in cali
Is a basement a safe place during a tsunami?
No. A basement is the last place you want to be during a tsunami. A tsunami is a massive surge of water. In a basement you are likely to drown. If a tsunami is coming you want to get as high up as possible. The best option, if you are in the danger zone, is to evacuate to higher ground inland. If you cannot then get to the top floor of you building or a nearby building, even on the roof if possible.
How high did the run-up heights of waves go in the 2011 Japanese tsunami?
"The tsunami waves reached run-up heights (how far the wave surges inland above sea level) of up to 128 feet (39 meters) at Miyako city and traveled inland as far as 6 miles (10 km) in Sendai." (quoted from LiveScience website)
How far would a 5000 foot high wave go inland?
Depends on the rise. If it was similar to the Japan Tsunami 3/11/11 it would go around 1000 miles inland. If it was just a tall thin wave it would go half the size of height. Then again its possible it could go all around the world but it all depends on the elevation....
Can a tsunami destroy my location?
It depends on where your location is. If you are in a low-lying coastal region, near a sea that is prone to tsunamis, then yes it could. If you are hundreds of miles inland or on a very high mountain, then no it wouldn't.

If tsunami alert was givenwhat would you do?
Run for high ground.

How far inland would a tsunami go in South Carolina?
Break your question down. The definition of a tsunami is, "a long high sea wave caused by an earthquake, submarine landslide, or other disturbance," so, depending on the magnitude of one of those events occurring, will then determine how far inland it will go. If you're looking for a specific point, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until it's too late because Mother Nature only knows the answer to that. If you want a comparison of what could happen to South Carolina, estimate or research how far inland Japan's tsunami went. The sea rose 20 feet at shore in some places. Now, imagine the Atlantic Coastline rising 20 feet in a matter of minutes where South Carolina borders the sea. There would be many miles of coastline submerged long enough to drown humans unfortunately. Scary thought. Hope this gave you some ideas. Good luck.
Where is the best place to be when a tsunami occurs?
The best place to be during a tsunami is on high ground away from the shore. Evacuate immediately if you are in a coastal area and follow local authorities' instructions for safety. Avoid rivers and estuaries that lead to the ocean, as tsunamis can travel inland through these waterways.
How do people protect themselves against tsunamis?
A tsunami can be over 100ft tall, and can move over 100mph. It's so fast that it will hit you almost the second you see it. The only way to be safe is to live inland, and at a high elevation.
Why was it a tsunami in Japan 2011?
there was tsunami because the earthquake had a high magnitude,so made big that caused the tsunami
What is a tsunami short definition?
Tsunami is a series of long, high sea waves.
How high can tsunami waves reach during a tsunami event?
Tsunami waves can reach heights of over 100 feet during a tsunami event.
