Maps: New Tsunami Areas Released by State

We need to hear from you.
Today during our spring member drive, put a dollar value on the trustworthy reporting you rely on all year long. The local news you read here every day is crafted for you, but right now, we need your help to keep it going. In these uncertain times, your support is even more important. We can't hold those in power accountable and uplift voices from the community without your partnership. Thank you.

New tsunami maps were released today by the state, but it appears there are only minor differences for Los Angeles neighborhoods in comparison to maps released by the city years ago. Nevertheless, if you live near the coast, it doesn't hurt to check the maps out just to be sure.

As the LA Times notes, many inland areas are potentially in danger due to waterways liek the Santa Ana River or port channels.

To see maps by county, go to the California Department of Conservation's webpage.
