What to Do?



Tsunami are infrequent events, but can cause extreme damage and many deaths when they do occur.  Most tsunamis are generated by large, shallow undersea earthquakes - because can't predict earthquakes, we don't know when and where the next one will be.  The best way we can be ready is to prepare beforehand, and know what to do during and after a tsunami.
