What I don't get is that nearly all the buoys that have that moving icon "Tsunami alert" show some excitation at the ~9:45GMT mark.

But I would of course expect the buoys that are farther away to only show some kind of peak when the wave actually reaches them. And it looks like they are thousands of km away, so some of them should not even have been reached yet.

Some what is going on there? Is the data time actually shifted and not in GMT but 'earthquake propagation time'? Am I reading the plots wrong?
