Summary

Description
English: Taken by the Himawari 8 satellite, this red-filter visible image of a volcanic eruption in Tonga was taken on 15 January 2022 at 04:50 (UTC) 5:50 PM (Tonga Local Time). This volcanic eruption produced a 3.9 foot (1.2 meter) tsunami which struck Nukuʻalofa, the capital of Tonga. The volcano also triggered tsunamis across the Pacific Ocean affecting countries and territories like Fiji, Samoa, Wallis and Futuna, Vanuatu, New Zealand, Australia, Japan, Russia, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Chile and Ecuador, and explosions and the shockwave from the eruption could be heard as far as Alaska and Canada. Also visible in this image is the remnants of Tropical Cyclone Cody to the southwest.
