Interesting map.

Hope it's not more than a 3-footer anywhere.

Indeed.
There was a person on EPS today who lives in New Zealand who sounded worried as he watched this approach. I hope he and everyone else on the Pacific coasts made it.

Forecasted and observed amplitudes are here:
Listed by station, not city.

The Galapagos Islands saw only about a meter or so.

That's a pretty impressive correlation between forecast and observation.

I thought so too, Erik.

These guys should be forecasting weather too...it'd be a hell of a lot more accurate than the current guys. 😉
