Tsunami warning ramifications
Just out of curiosity, what are the procedures at YSSY when a tsunami warning is issued for Botany Bay, as it was up until 22:00 Wednesday Sydney time?
Is there provision for the airport to close if the risk of runway inundation is high? How is the risk monitored at night?

These guys seem to have everything under control with loads of monitoring information. The warning was cancelled an hour after it was issued.

No ATIS tsunami warning?
Is there provision for a warning to be included in ATIS?
The official warning for NSW is still current and expressly includes Botany Bay: Quote:
