Wave emergency practice
A tsunami drill is a practice exercise preparing people to respond to a tsunami warning.
Schools, coastal communities, and workplaces conduct drills that typically involve moving to higher ground or designated evacuation routes: The tsunami drill sent students walking uphill to the assembly point.
Like fire drills, they aim to make emergency response automatic.
