PORT ANGELES – Multiple state and local agencies are coming together and hitting the road in what has been dubbed “the tsunami roadshow”, and it’s coming to a town near you.
Their goal is to make as many people as possible aware of what tsunami alerts are, how to receive them and what they need to know to survive.
Officials from the Washington Emergency Management Division will be joined by the National Weather Service, Washington Sea Grant, local emergency management officials and the Washington Geological Survey, in the 90-minute presentation. Experts will discuss tsunami evacuation structures, potential earthquake early warning systems and survival strategies.
They’ll present the program on Thursday, April 11 in The Little Theater at Peninsula College at 6:00 pm. Then on Friday the 12th they’ll be at the Lower Elwha Tribal Center gym at 10:00 am.
Other presentations will be in Aberdeen, Ocean Shores and on the Long Beach Peninsula.
