RECOMMENDED ACTIONS - UPDATED
-----------------------------
Actions to protect human life and property will
vary within tsunami warning areas and within tsunami
advisory areas.
If you are in a tsunami warning area;
* Evacuate inland or to higher ground above and beyond
  designated tsunami hazard zones or move to an upper floor
  of a multi-story building depending on your situation.
If you are in a tsunami warning or advisory area;
* Move out of the water, off the beach, and away from
  harbors, marinas, breakwaters, bays and inlets.
* Be alert to and follow instructions from your local
  emergency officials because they may have more detailed or
  specific information for your location.
* If you feel a strong earthquake or extended ground rolling
  take immediate protective actions such as moving inland
  and/or uphill preferably by foot.
* Boat operators,
    * Where time and conditions permit, move your boat out to
      sea to a depth of at least 180 feet.
    * If at sea avoid entering shallow water, harbors,
      marinas, bays, and inlets to avoid floating and
      submerged debris and strong currents.
* Do not go to the shore to observe the tsunami.
* Do not return to the coast until local emergency officials
  indicate it is safe to do so.
IMPACTS
-------
Impacts will vary at different locations in the warning and
in the advisory areas.
If you are in a tsunami warning area;
* A tsunami with damaging waves and powerful currents is
  possible.
* Repeated coastal flooding is possible as waves arrive
  onshore, move inland, and drain back into the ocean.
* Strong and unusual waves, currents and inland flooding
  can drown or injure people and weaken or destroy structures
  on land and in water.
* Water filled with floating or submerged debris that can
  injure or kill people and weaken or destroy buildings and
  bridges is possible.
* Strong and unusual currents and waves in harbors,
  marinas, bays, and inlets may be especially
  destructive.
If you are in a tsunami advisory area;
* A tsunami with strong waves and currents is possible.
* Waves and currents can drown or injure people who are
  in the water.
* Currents at beaches and in harbors, marinas,
  bays, and inlets may be especially dangerous.
If you are in a tsunami warning or advisory area;
* Some impacts may continue for many hours to days after
  arrival of the first wave.
* The first wave may not be the largest so later waves may
  be larger.
* Each wave may last 5 to 45 minutes as a wave encroaches
  and recedes.
* Coasts facing all directions are threatened because the
  waves can wrap around islands and headlands and into bays.
* Strong shaking or rolling of the ground indicates an
  earthquake has occurred and a tsunami may be imminent.
* A rapidly receding or receded shoreline, unusual waves and
  sounds, and strong currents are signs of a tsunami.
* The tsunami may appear as water moving rapidly out to sea,
  a gentle rising tide like flood with no breaking wave,
  as a series of breaking waves, or a frothy wall of water.
