Tsunami arrival imminent – evacuate urgently


Northlanders in low-lying and coastal areas who have not already done so should evacuate immediately as a tsunami may be just minutes away, Civil Defence warns.
Tony Phipps, Group Controller for the Northland Civil Defence Emergency Management Group (CDEM) says very large earthquake off the Kermadec Islands earlier today may have generated dangerous tsunami.
A formal state of emergency has been declared for Northland and Mr Phipps says information continues to come to hand; including a new estimate putting the height of potential tsunami waves at up to eight metres. Police are cordoning off evacuation zones.
Mr Phipps says tsunami are predicted to impact on coastal and low-lying areas on much of the New Zealand coast, including Northland, with predicted arrival times at Whangarei of 10.42am today and at North Cape 11.09am.
“At this stage, our advice remains for those in coastal and low-lying areas who have not already done so to evacuate immediately, calmly and move safely inland or to higher ground. It’s also vital they away from beaches and waterways until the all-clear is given. Under no circumstances should people go to the beach to sightsee; I cannot stress this enough

Civil Defence warns the tsunami could arrive before further information becomes available.


“It’s vital that people are aware there may be more than one wave and that later waves may be bigger than the first.”
ENDS
