Also don’t forget the fault in the canary islands and the potential for a tidal wave several meters high on the east coast. There’s already news graphics for it.

It would not be a tsunami or tidal wave, but rather a different creature entirely. A tsunami occurs when the sea bed is pushed up, raising the sea level by the amount of lift caused. This sort of wave rolls on until it breaks on the shore; how far inland it travels depends on the slope of the land and force of the wave.
The Canary Islands have a large fissure several meters deep and wide. The seaward side is slowly slipping into the sea. The theory goes that at some point the slow slide will turn into a rush and all of it will plunge into the sea. This would create a displacement wave - water displaced by the force and volume of material deposited.
This Canary Island wave would rise about 600 feet or more above the sea surface, traveling at several hundred miles per hour, On reaching land it would travel over it until it broke on land higher than the wave (all land beneath the wave would be scoured down to bedrock) - in the case of the US East coast that would mean it would break on the Allegheny Mountains ... See Lituya Bay, Alaska 1958.
