The Tonga volcanic shockwave has been detected by a bunch of folks on Mastodon

There are people who've been monitoring barometric (atmospheric) pressure, several in Germany, elsewhere in Europe, and the US, who've recorded the pressure wave as the Tonga shockwave passed over their location.

By noting location and time, they're able to calculate the speed of the wave as well.

The boom itself was audibly detectable as far away as New Zealand, Australia, and Alaska!
