One occurred in Japan just last week, on March 11, 2011. It was triggered by a 9.0-magnitude earthquake that shook beneath the Pacific Ocean close to Japan. The tsunami ran 500 mph until it hit land, and the impact was so hard that California received tsunami warnings too. A tsunami hit Hawaii, and another hit Southern Cali. It didn't cause much damage to California, except for Crescent City and San Pedro.
