• All the water recedes out of the bay followed by a big wave coming in towards you. 0% 0 Votes
• Tsunamis are actually very small swellings of the ocean until they reach shallow water. Modern tsunami warning systems are designed to detect the passage of this swells using changes in pressure. 0% 0 Votes
• There is often no advance warning of an approaching tsunami. However, since earthquakes are often a cause of tsunami, any earthquake occurring near a body of water may generate a tsunami if it occurs at shallow depth, is of moderate or high magnitude, and the water volume and depth is sufficient. In Japan moderate - 4.2 Magnitude earthquakes can generate tsunami which can inundate the area within 15 minutes.
  
  A tsunami cannot be prevented or precisely predicted - even if the right magnitude of an earthquake occurs in the right location. Geologists, Oceanographers and Seismologist analyse each earthquake and based upon many factors may or may not issue a tsunami warning. However, there are some warning signs of an impending tsunami, and there are many systems being developed and in use to reduce the damage from tsunami. One of the most important systems that is used and constantly monitored are bottom pressure sensors. These are anchored and attached to buoys.
  
  The Indian Ocean Tsunami could affect locations such as Madagascar, Singapore, Somalia, Western Australia and many others. The Boxing Day tsunami killed over 300,000 people with many bodies either being lost to the sea or unidentified. Some unofficial estimates have claimed that approximately 1 million people may have died directly or indirectly solely as a result of the tsunami. 25% 1 Vote

• When the water on the beach suddenly flows back out to sea. It will look like the beach grew for a hundred yards or more.Fish will be flopping on the beach. This is because the water on the beach is being sucked under the tsunami and then rolled back up on top of the water. If you see the beach start getting bigger run inland fast. I saw a documentary on the tsunami that hit Indonesia in 2004 I believe it was. 0% 0 Votes
