Fireball explosion and smoke billowing at Beirut port on 4 August 2020. These pictures were created from film footage recorded at a distant office building (1, Data and Resources). The times on these eight pictures are estimated from a forensic video of the explosion (2, Data and Resources). The time error is about ±1 s.

Vertical‐component velocity seismograms bandpass filtered between 0.5 and 10.0 Hz for the 4 August 2020 Beirut explosion. Seismograms were recorded by (a) continental stations, (b) island‐based stations, and (c) ocean‐bottom stations. Because of the large amplitude contrast between seismic body waves and the T phase, seismograms are divided into two sections at group velocity 2.0 km/s and normalized separately. The station names, epicentral distances, and maximum amplitudes for the first section are listed on the left, and the maximum amplitudes for the second section are listed on the right. Marked on the waveforms are group velocities. The color version of this figure is available only in the electronic edition.
