> It could have been be worse . . . > Massive tsunami sweeps Atlantic Coast in asteroid impact scenario
However, other calculations show that for asteriods under one kilometer in diameter the tsunami wouldn't be unbelievably massive. The US Navy did a study on explosion-produced tsunamis and concluded that the effect would not be catastrophic in any case where the blast did not go all the way down to the ocean bed. Asteroids between 100m and 1000m in diameter might "only" produce normal sized tsunamis. On the other hand, larger asteroids (i.e. bigger than one km. diameter) would be a global disaster.
In any case, I think we could use some Preparation A . . .
