I suspect after the Japan Tsunami and all the coverage of that, people now mostly are on high alert, and head to higher ground.
Around here, we are 100% tsunami safe.

Until you're not. But when
you are in danger from a tsunami, you may as well go for a ride or have a beer in your yard or something.
The 2011 Japan tsunami was a devastation that was mind boggling, a lot like the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, but I feel like the one in Japan was documented better (lots more video). Watching the videos and seeing the after-effects provoked waves (NPI) of emotions.
