You can't prevent a tsunami
It's a natural phenomenon
Like a cyclone/hurricane (sorry, not sure what country you are from)
It is scientifically impossible
They try to prevent huge disasters occurring from them by building buildings stronger, having warning bells, and possibly even building up the sand at beaches
But no
It is physically impossible to prevent a tsunami as they are natural
There are tsunamis and there are tsunami trains. A tsunami is generated by an underwater earthquake. A new tsunami has to wait for a new earthquake. It is not uncommon for any earthquake to be followed by one or more aftershocks within a matter of hours or days, so a new tsunami can result similarly. Since earthquake behavior is notoriously unpredictable, so is tsunami generation. A single tsunami results in a series of waves with periods ranging from minutes to hours. This is called the tsunami "wave train". There is more information in the related links.
A tsunami is not a storm. It is a wave created by an earthquake or landslide. A tsunami can strike during any kind of weather.
There can be any amount of rain or no rain at all. A tsunami is not a weather-related event but a geologic event usually triggered by an earthquake.
It is possible to prepare for earthquakes, for example by building stronger buildings that won't collapse as easily in the event of an earthquake, but we do not have any means of preventing earthquakes. It is not impossible in principle to prevent earthquakes; this would require cooling the Earth's mantle so that the liquid rock would solidify. However this is beyond the capability of our current technology.
Earthquakes can cause tsunamis, along with landslides and volcanic activity in the sea. Practically any disturbance in the ocean can cause a tsunami, and most major tsunamis are caused by earthquakes.

No. The Natural Disaster Warning Centre confirmed that the tsunami caused by the Japanese earthquake will NOT have any impact on Thailand.

The alarms did sound, but considering how fast the tsunami followed on the heels of the earthquake, there was no time to head for higher ground.

Earthquakes, can happen at any time, so it is impossible to tell whether or not an earthquake is happening at this current moment.
A Tsunami Cannot be predicted under any pattern. They occur generally as the result of an earthquake. This means at the edge of tectonic plates, called a fault line.

Only that it is inevitable that there will be tsunamis in the future. One risk area is the Cascadia subduction zone of the northern Pacific coast of the U.S., which has a strong chanced of producing a major earthquake and tsunami.
This would be a few seconds after a slip in between the earths plates at its epicentre excluding any damages caused after by a tsunami
A tsunami can't be prevented any more that a sunrise can be prevented. It is a force of nature that man, at least as of yet, has absolutely no control over.
