Houston is very unlikely to experience a tsunami. Most tsunamis originate at subduction zones of which there are none in the Gulf of Mexico. There are islands that would block a tsunami in between the Gulf and the nearest subduction zone. Most tsunamis that somehow find their way to Texas will be fairly small, though still capable of causing damage. Even in an event like this, Houston would be protected from the tsunami by Galveston Island and the Bolivar Peninsula.
