event. These conditions are hazardous to swimmers, boats, and
coastal structures. Widespread inundation is NOT expected.

out of harbors and changing water levels can cause boats and docks
to detach from structures.

first wave arrival. The first tsunami wave or surge may not be the
highest in the series.
