The tsunami warning system is in place on the coast. There are a series of sirens that will go off and information on going to higher ground. It has been used many times in the past. at times there are practice drills too. Where I live is out the tsanami zone a bit. If the wave was high enough, it could maybe reach me, but there is a mile of land between me and the surf and it would have to go up over a lot of hilly area to reach me. As you drive a few miles North of South you do enter the tsanami zone though. KAST is the EAS station in the county and has a generator. But unfortunately if a tsanami hit, KAST would be gone being right on the shore. The studios are moving to a safer spot in Warrenton in the next year or two though.
