Combine that knowledge with the local eq... And it's time to start watching the beaches.
I imagine night time would be the worst case scenario for a tsunami

I hope for everyone over there that there is not a tsunami and I will be in Phuket in a couple of weeks.

Looks like none of the buoys have any unusual water level activity. 1 hour after the quake now, which was around 411 miles off the coast.

Indonesia has lifted the tsunami warning
Damn, some residents in the area are saying they didn't even feel it. That is a fortunate turn of events.

I don't think they have a clue when a tsunami will form from an earthquake offshore

If you're saying that they don't know whether or not a particular earthquake will cause a tsunami, I agree.
If you're saying they don't know when a tsunami will affect a landmass after the earthquake, as in how long will it take, then I think they have that shite pretty well documented.
I'm always interested in the dynamics that cause the former.

I don't know the terms but do earthquakes always cause the ground/seafloor to rise up or fold under at the epicenter? I am guessing some earthquakes don't disrupt the seafloor to cause the tsunami to form?

No warning? The buoys are definitely a bouncing:

shouldn't there be more than one bounce?

Possibly. But the crests could be spaced out, too. And I was just reading that a tsunami can traverse the deep parts of oceans unnoticed...but they grow in size once the water gets shallower.
Science shite is cool.

true
Wasn't sure where the buoys were and at what point the wave becomes waves

"they"? of course not. no humans know what shape the earth movement will be.
