How To Survive A Tsunami

Evacuation Map And Information For
Cannon Beach Oregon

What is a Tsunami ?
   

 

 

A Tsunami striking this part
of the Oregon Coast is
expected to dangerously
flood parts of Cannon Beach shown in the gray shadowed
areas on the map.

 

Any time you're in the gray tsunami hazard area and
you feel the ground shake,
or hear the community
warning sirens,
walk immediately to
any area of town NOT
shown in gray on this map.


Do not try to drive !!


Traffic jams will trap
many drivers and passengers
in deadly flood zones
leaving little or no time
to get to safety.

 

Never return to the
gray low lying areas until
local officials announce
that it is safe to do so.

 

     

A tsunami can be generated by an earthquake many hundreds of miles away.
You may not feel the earthquake in the local area where you are.
Federal and State agencies alert local officials who will sound the evacuation alarm.
If you hear the alarm do not waste any time ....
