Alaska has more coastline than all the other 49 states combined.
And along 97% of that coastline lives almost no one, except the moose who are hundreds of miles from any warning sirens. The Lituya Bay wave was in an enclosed area affecting an isolated hillside. By the time the hillside collapsed, and generated the wave, it would have been too late to evacuate even if sirens sounded.
