Precautions For Those At Risk of a TsunamiIf you live in a coastal area that is hit by an earthquake, especially near the Pacific Ocean, the chances of a tsunami hitting increase. Take these precautions immediately after an earthquake.

-Turn on your radio or TV to hear if there is a tsunami warning

-Move away from the shoreline and to higher ground

-Do not go to the beach, especially if you see a noticeable recession of water away from the shoreline.

Tsunami Tips for BoatersIf you are on a boat when a tsunami is possibly approaching, move to deeper waters. Upon returning to your boat after a tsunami hits land, be cautious because wave conditions may be severe and strong currents may exist for a period after the tsunami hits.
