What are the Dangers of a Tsunami ?

A tsunami can happen quickly with little time for people to prepare. They can easily cause floods and loss of power. A tsunami in areas like the Indian Ocean can hit multiple countries if they have a lot of active tectonic plates around their land. This means that a tsunami from another country can hit the rural parts of Australia in only 2 hours. Some areas are more vulnerable, not only because of their locations but also because of the lack of protection.

How to take appropriate precautions?

There are ways to detect a Tsunami approaching. The bigger issue comes from staying aware long enough. During the 2018 tsunami in Sulawesi Indonesia for example, citizens were not alerted enough. The Indonesian agency of meteorology did create a warning but stopped it after only 30 minutes. Considering how powerful a natural disaster can be, changes happen quickly and awareness can save lives. The other issue came from people not receiving the alerts. The agency used text messages for the most part. During a natural disaster, communication can be difficult and often impossible. There were also no sirens on the beach to alert people.
