The first thing you should do to prepare for a tsunami is to find out if you work,play or live in a Tsunami evacuation area. These places along with civil defense areas can be found in your yellow pages of your phone books.

If you hear a siren turn on your radio or your tv and watch or listen for information that could assist you in any information that you will need to know.If you need assistance ask your friend or someone around you to help you.Dont rush just move in a calm way to prevent any accidence that could accure.If these accidence do accure it will hold you as wel as others up.Move to a non-evacuation zone somewhere that is safe to wait untill the tsunami is over.

Another sign that a tsunami is coming is when the water disappears exposing the ocean floor and fish. Another clue is if you see a huge gigantic wave coming at the island. If you are not inside and are bye tall things that may cause injury if it falls get away because chances are that it may fall on you and injury you or even kill you.

Make an evacuation plan and share it with your family so you all know what to do incase of a tsunami.There will be phone lines open that you and your familys can use for information or questions.

If you are in school and you hear the sirens, follow your teachers advice and do what your teacher says to be as safe as can be.

Some reinforced concrete buildings may be able to withstand the force of tsunamis not all of them have this ablity.
