Thankfully, scientists say the potential eruption poses no danger to residents.

“Axial Seamount is much too deep and far from shore for people on land to even notice when it erupts. An eruption at Axial Seamount also has nothing to do with seismic activity on land, so Pacific Northwesterners don’t need to worry about this event triggering a major earthquake or tsunami,” the blog post stated.

Fortunately for residents of California, Oregon and Washington, Axial Seamount doesn't erupt explosively, so it poses zero risk of any tsunami.
