Tsunami Signs
Tsunami Evacuation signs are everywhere in the area where we are staying. Is there anyplace in the world that is safe? Florida has sinkholes, and hurricanes. Seattle has earthquakes. Only in Oregon have I seen Tsunami Evacuation signs, but . . . would Kuwait be vulnerable to a Tsunami? If there were a tsunami, where would we run to? Where would we be safe?
In one place, on a high hill, we saw a sign saying Tsunami safe haven, but it was a long way up that hill and you are supposed to run, not drive, because they are afraid of gridlock with people trying to drive to get away. I am thinking a lot of people would probably die trying to run up that hill!
Here’s a sign you’ll be happy to see:

LOL @ the last sign!
I am not sure running up a hill with a tsunami on your tail is the best evacuation plan!
Wow hmm interesting how they assume ppl to just run up there, though it makes sense that it would be safer than driving up there.. oh well.
I don’t know about Kuwait though there are public shelters. I wonder about those sometimes.
i took a pic alongside a sign like that when i was in thailand. twas haha!
excuse incoherence, just got bak 2q8 and i havent been up this early in 2 years. bleh
Tsunami? In Kuwait? hmmm the shallow waters! I dont think so! anywho… in case of Tsunami run to the mall LOL
The last Huricane in kuwait kinda scared me as i was stuck in the middle of the road… so I guess the above signs are scary!
Kinano – THAT IS THE PLAN! Otherwise, all the cars will just jam the highways. You are supposed to RUN for the high ground!
N – I bet all Kuwait’s tsunami shelters are underground, LLOOLLLLLL!
Mrm – Welcome back, sweetie! I would love to see your photo!
Ansam – who knows? It could be possible, I would think, depending on where an earthquake happened, and Kuwait is at a point that could receive the force of the huge wave.
Amu – Kuwait has had some scary weather the last year for sure! Remember that storm?
*howling laughing* we used to get such a kick out of those tsunami signs. It would be a LONG run from the beach, at least in Rockaway!
Yes, Little Diamond, and that is a frightening thought!
