B.R.R.R: Recognizing Natural Tsunami Warning Signs

[edit]

The acronym B.R.R.R can help you remember the natural warning signs of an impending tsunami:

  • BBubbles: If you observe unusual bubbles in the water, it may indicate underwater seismic activity.
  • RRetreat: A sudden and unexpected retreat of the sea, exposing the ocean floor, reefs, and fish, is a significant warning sign. This phenomenon, known as "drawback," often precedes the arrival of a tsunami.
  • RRoar: A loud roar, similar to that of a train or jet aircraft, coming from the ocean, can indicate an approaching tsunami.
  • RRun: If you notice all of these signs, immediately move to your house, hotel, or another safe location without waiting for official evacuation orders.

Recognizing these natural warning signs and responding promptly can save lives.
