Yup. The pressure wave hit my station on Vancouver Island on the west coast of Canada at 4AM (about 8 hours after the blast). It actually visibly cleared the high coastal fog. The Weather Service out of Seattle confirmed it cleared the fog at the airport there so I went looking on some local highway webcams and sure enough there it was. You can see it on my Twitter here:

I was lucky enough to see it as it entered our local river and changed the flow.

Hoping they’re going to be ok.
