A tsunami comes in waves. There may be many, many waves lasting for hours and the next wave may be even larger than the last. Listen to the radio for updates on what is happening. Do not trust word of mouth. It is better to wait than to return too early and be caught by more incoming waves. " Only then you should return to your home. Find out in advance how local authorities propose to announce such a notice. Remember that roads may be extremely damaged by the tsunami waves and you may have to take alternative routes. A good pre-planned emergency plan should account for this possibility and provide alternative routes and gathering places. Once the tsunami has subsided, there will be debris, destroyed buildings and broken infrastructure. There may also be dead bodies. Fresh water supplies will be destroyed or disrupted. Food supplies will most likely be unavailable. The potential for disease, post-traumatic stress disorder, grief, starvation, and injuries will make the post-tsunami period nearly as perilous as the tsunami itself. An emergency plan should also consider the aftermath and what you'll need to do to protect yourself, your family and your community. If your local authorities have not put action plans into place, suggest that they do so or form a community action group to consider a post-tsunami plan. Things that can help survival post tsunami include:  Establishing an advance stash of fresh water. Whether bottled water or filtered water, an emergency water supply should be in place in your community. Opening up undamaged homes and buildings to others. Help those in distress and provide them with shelter.  Ensuring that there are power generators to enable cooking, maintenance of hygiene and return of basic health and transportation services.
