As tsunamis enter shallow water near land, they increase in height and can cause great loss of life and property damage. HUG POINT RD Recent research suggests that tsunamis have struck the Oregon coast on a regular basis. They can A occur any time, day or night. Typical wave heights from tsunamis occurring in the Pacific OceanHu g over the last 500 years have been 20–65 feet at the shoreline. However, because of local conditionsPoint a few waves may have been much higher — as much as 100 feet. We distinguish between a tsunami caused by an undersea earthquake near the Oregon coast (a local tsunami) and an undersea earthquake far away from the coast (a distant tsunami).

OREGON CANNON BEACH AND ARCH CAPE AREAS, TSUNAMI EVACUATION MAP Distant tsunamis A distant tsunami will take 4 hours or more to come ashore. You will feel no earthquake, and the tsunami will generally be smaller than that from a local earthquake. Typically, there is time for an official warning and evacuation to safety. Evacuation for a distant tsunami will generally be indicated by a 3-minute siren blast (if your area has sirens) and an announcement over NOAA weather radio that the local area has been put into an official TSUNAMI WARNING. In isolated areas along beaches and bays you may not hear a warning siren. Here, a sudden change of sea level should prompt you to move immediately to high ground. If you hear the 3-minute blast or see a sudden sea level change, first evacuate away from shoreline areas, then turn on your local broadcast media or NOAA weather radio for more information.
