Tsunamis are not weather!

I'm often asked meteorological questions, and most of the time I have to answer that I have no idea because I have no training or experience in that field.  This sometimes surprises people because for some reason they assume a tsunami expert should know such things. Tsunamis are geophysical rather than meteorological phenomena.  These are two separate but related branches of the earth sciences.
