supply chain glitches, huge demand as people gather again and the war in ukraine hurting food and gas supplies. in new york, i m christine romans. much of the u.s. will see rain through tomorrow. that could add to travel chaos or disrupt outdoor celebrations. heavy rainfall may develop over the midwest with a severe storm threat there tomorrow. plus, we re seeing critical fire conditions continue in the southwest and alaska. meteorologist tom sater here with the latest forecast. tom, how are things looking? overall, jessica, this has a bark worse than its bite. the areas of green where there s rain, there are key things you have to understand. in the southeast it s scattered. they re pop-up. we re in the middle of summer where the storms have little movement. they develop in the high humidity and they wring themselves out without moving. it s like throwing a dart. if it happens to land over an airport, that could cause a slight delay.
meteorologist tom sater joins me. what s the situation like in the region now? there s still some rumbling. we still have minor quakes which means magma trying to get up to the surface. we can confirm, too, of course, blasts but we re not sure if a third. the last one that was stronger was in 1991 but you ve got vanuatu, american samoa. this force is so great that as the energy transferred up through the water, the water dispersed. so we ll get to the tsunami in a moment. first a sonic boom they heard. then the ash was falling and residents said it was tough to breathe. communication is spotty but australia has been able to get reconnaissance craft and aid to the area. then the tsunami. nothing like we saw with the fukushima megathrust earthquake in japan or previous to that in indonesia. this was, however, felt across the entire basin of the pacific. warnings were out for tsunamis
from hawaii to the aleutian chain and alaskan coast. not only that force through the water dispersed it but also maybe there was a landslide, a submarine under the water. when you have force like this, what we re seeing is a collapsing of the cauldron. there could have been, as you can see satellite images. 1.2 kilometers, three quarters of a mile, it s almost now gone. it collapsed instead of building an island and that could have caused as well the tsunami effect. but still a lot of activity with this. we ll continue to watch it in the days ahead. tom sater, thank you. it s virginia governor glen youngkin s first week in office. he s already in a standoff with schools that says parents can choose whether to have their kids mask up in schools. more on that ahead when the lead with jake tapper starts after a break.
