If it blows like Krakatoa it would swamp NYC and Philly, and Baltimore.
Still trying to see the down-side....

Is La Palma that island off of Portugal that is expected to eventually explode causing so much earth to fall into the Atlantic that a huge tsunami will occur? I recall having seen a documentary on it which scared the fertilizer out of me.

Is there any geological evidence of a massive tsunami ever hitting the east coast of North America? We know of many in Japan, Hawaii and elsewhere in the Pacific and it has become part of different cultures and myths. But what about in the Atlantic?

I would think by the time any tsunami reached the east coast of America it would be so spread out and dissipated it might be an inch high. But, then again, people like to tell scary stories.
To: frogjerk
The atlantic ocean is a long way to cross. Most tsunami’s are regional, no? There are a lot of forces (wind, tidal, etc) that can dissipate the energy of a tsunami over that distance I am thinking. I honestly don’t know what I’m talking about though. lol

Ok. This was the result of a large earthquake quite close to the disaster area. Anything from much much farther away?

Boston, Fla ... any place along the Atlantic coast below 2,000 ft above sea level, depending on wave height.
Its a basalt volcano ; they are not explosive - like the Hawaiian sort. The danger comes from the already slipping land on the east side of the island. The linear crack is over 10 feet deep in places, maybe more now. That mass sliding into the water will create a wave like Lituya Bay.

I’m having difficulty believing that a landslide on a small island would create a huge tsunami across the other side of the Atlantic, across an arc of thousands of miles.

I think the Mid-Atlantic Ridge would zap much of the Tsunami’s energy from it as most of it’s power is deep below.

The downside is that it wouldn’t hit San Fran.

All my life I have heard one scare-mongering prediction after another about a "devastating" East Coast tsunami that never happens. It seems everytime there's an earthquake somewhere, the tsunami warnings go up - then nothing.
Every now and then, a few extra crabs get washed up on the beach though.
