Plan for an emergency before your holiday!
Hey neighbours, I hope you’re now on the wind-down side of Christmas! If you’re heading off on holiday shortly, please give a little thought to how you’d manage if an emergency strikes while you’re away from home.
Check whether your holiday spot is in a tsunami zone and plan what you’d do if you need to evacuate. A local source tsunami could arrive in minutes, so there won’t be time for an official warning. It is important to recognise the natural warning signs and act quickly.
Remember, LONG or STRONG: GET GONE.
Here are some useful links to help you prepare for an emergency:
