Woke me up from a nightmare... but I'm pretty sure it made the nightmare even freakier for a hot second there 😅

Hard to differentiate what exactly was part of reality; I think there was a loud bang from outside, as well as stuff in here shaking for a few seconds.

Two more jolts from this guy! https://geodata.nexus/@westquake/statuses/01K5T2V5JGP03PGWWDYFQP1J5A

More confusing as there wasn't any wiggling... just a couple large bangs like if someone dropped something heavy downstairs.

The overnight eruption of the Krasheninnikov Volcano in Kamchatka, its first in 600 years, may be connected to the huge earthquake that rocked Russia's Far East last week. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/08/03/world/kamchatka-quake-causes-volcano/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #kamchatka #volcano #earthquake

AI-generated disinformation after the 8.8 #Kamchatka #earthquake is off the charts. Beyond the problem of Grok churning out false reports, #AIFakeAlerts & #AIDisasterFakes are flooding timelines.

Clearly, panic media is wholly destructive to public messaging. The one screenshotted shows an AI-gen girl abandoning her car in traffic. For a whole community who lived through the Maui fires, this touches real trauma.

⚠️ Please start tracking & taking screenshots of #DisasterDisinfo where you see it.

Labelled with words “AI FAKE” written over the image in yellow. The original image from a TikTok account called SnowBunnyMagic shows an AI-generated video of a young, blonde woman in a white hoodie, seems to be in a state of panic near a beach in Hawai’i. The text in the image reads: “Massive 8.8 earthquake in Russia set off the tsunamis in U.S. 10ft waves! 2nd Largest quake on the planet.” With a caption: “My Snow Bunny friend just sent my this from Hawaii.” — Screenshot of a TikTok video.

Reading this linked blog post about the M8.8 earthquake in Russia and triggering of the tsunami warning has been more insightful than any of the mass media coverage I've read on the same topic this morning:

Alberniweather ☔️ ☀️ ❄️ 🌬️

@alberniweather@socialbc.ca · 2 months ago

Watching the currents in the Somass River at the head of the Alberni Inlet. I'm safely perched on a platform about 5 metres above the water.

The lights of the city and paper mill shining onto the water allow me to see how it is flowing. Have not noticed anything abnormal.

Also keeping an eye on data from tide gauges in Tofino, Bamfield (at the other end of the Inlet) and here. Nothing significant has registered.

@alberniweather@socialbc.ca · 2 months ago

Now there's a proper (small) tsunami wave signal!
From the Henslung Cove tide station on Langara Island, Haida Gwaii BC (NW tip of BC coast). In about 10 minutes the tide gauge rose to:
1737mm
and fell to
1569mm
then back up to 1669mm

That is a wave of 168mm or 16.8cm or 6.6 inches followed by a second of 10cm so far.

The period between the two peaks is 24 minutes.

As predicted, less than 1ft/30cm.
#tsunami #tsunami #portalberni #tofino #bamfield #ucluelet #earthquake #russia

A red line goes up and down over a black line that curves down and then up smoothly as the tide goes out then in.

@alberniweather@socialbc.ca · 2 months ago

To emphasize that this is a long-duration event, nearly an hour after the predicted time waves would appear at Langara on Haida Gwaii, we are now seeing much more obvious waves on the station there. This is still only about 5cm.

This could mean we might see tiny variations in Tofino and Port Alberni to start in the next 15-30min, but could see much larger variations and currents in the midnight to 12:30 timeframe.
