Apparently there was a Tsunami at the NJ coast. It wasnt caused by an Earthquake but 30 diferent gauges out in the water picked up on the tsunami like wave which peaked at 6 feet high. It swept 2 people out.
" The event occurred in close conjunction with a weather system labeled by the National Weather Service as a low-end derecho which propagated from west to east over the New Jersey shore just before the tsunami."
I personaly dont think so. Maybe the continental shelf slipped a bit.
There was a 6.4 earthquake in the Northern Mid Atlantic Ridge in the Atlantic Ocean but that was 1 week later on May 24th
Another blog on it. Apparently I found out there was a 2.9 earthquake near NJ but I still dont think that was the cause. Then again, maybe all this is related.
