What this page counts

Tsunami warnings are rare. They are issued by regional warning centres — the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, the Japan Meteorological Agency and their equivalents — usually within minutes of a large undersea earthquake, and they are cancelled once the threat has passed. An empty page here is the ordinary condition of the world and should be read that way.

This site does not issue tsunami warnings

This site does not issue tsunami warnings and must never be your first source for one. If you are on a coast and feel a long or strong earthquake, move inland or to high ground without waiting for any official message.
