Review your five steps on your Pathways to Preparedness. If you live beachside, know the height of your street above sea level and the distance from the coast to ensure you are outside of the ft tsunami evacuation zone. Evacuate the beaches to the west side of the dune line, approximately ft. Vertical evacuation to the highest floor at least 15ft high of a well-constructed building is also an option.
Save yourself, not your possessions. Remember to help your neighbors, who may require special assistance. Stay away from the beach, and debris in the water or along the shoreline. Continue using a NOAA weather radio, local radio, television, or social media for updates. Avoid marinas, inlets, coves, and other bodies of water connected to the ocean due to fast moving underwater currents.
