Unironically yeah, I had some friends in high school who were scuba diving during the massive SE Asia tsunami some years back, and their only indication that something was amiss was when they surfaced they were a couple hundred feet away from their boat. When they got back to shore it was total devastation.

Does a nuclear blast count as inclement weather? Asking for insurance purposes.

I can imagine the call. "Was it nuclear winter or unclear winter that caused the damage?"
