Long or strong, get gone

The Team from Ministry of Civil Defence & Emergency Management

All of New Zealand’s coast line is at risk of tsunami.
Knowing the right immediate action to take can save lives and prevent injury. If you are near the coast and feel a strong earthquake that makes it hard to stand up, or a rolling earthquake that lasts longer than a minute, move immediately to high ground, or as far inland as possible.
The earthquake is your first warning, tsunami waves can arrive within minutes. Do not wait for official advice or warning systems.
Contact your local civil defence group for tsunami zone maps and plan your route today. www.civildefence.govt.nz...
Talk to your neighbours about where you will go, and who might need your help.
