So, in my published 2022 forecasts (Oracle 20/20 magazine) I noted tsunami(s) in the Pacific Ring of Fire...but not specifically Japan (I did consider it!). If this were a 9, a Great Quake -- I'd say all our sensitives in CA could have been picking it up. |

If it was, I want to tell you I enjoyed the site. It was a joy. |

| the ones at or around Honshu are my 'honshu eyes'..which I made notice of a few days back but thought it was due to some smaller ones, now I am thinking it was for the bigger ones coming. so weird how so many earth/solar/etc energies hit we sensitives in different ways on our bodies, and sometimes we will have a group hit nearly exactly the same. I think many more people are earth empaths then they even know but attribute it to 'medical' things and run to the doctors and take meds to try to deal with the symptoms. |

It must have lasted a long time from the videos at the Twitter link. Millions without power! I think they upgraded the magnitude too, haven’t looked yet. |

Eerily similar to the beginning of the swarm 11 years ago. |

Oh wow, that’s right! It was the 6+, then the 7+, then the 9+! Good observation Earthstone. |

way too similar and this quake was a N/S thrust fault, according to the USGS focal mechanism beach ball diagram. The 2011 quake moment tensor is shown above. Had to look up the foreshocks: The main earthquake was preceded by a number of large foreshocks, with hundreds of aftershocks reported. One of the first major foreshocks was a 7.2 Mw event on 9 March, approximately 40 km (25 mi) from the epicenter of the 11 March earthquake, with another three on the same day in excess of 6.0 Mw.[7][58] Following the main earthquake on 11 March, a 7.4 Mw aftershock was reported at 15:08 JST (6:06 UTC), succeeded by a 7.9 Mw at 15:15 JST (6:16 UTC) and a 7.7 Mw at 15:26 JST (6:26 UTC).[59] Over eight hundred aftershocks of magnitude 4.5 Mw or greater have occurred since the initial quake,[60] |

The Northwest Pacific Tsunami Center says that a large earthquake near Fukushima, Japan early this morning did not generate a tsunami. This morning’s earthquake was 7.3 in magnitude. Its epicenter was close to the last earthquake that generated a significant tsunami that struck the Pacific Northwest almost exactly 11 years ago, on March 11, 2011. |

Powerful quake off north Japan kills 4, more than 90 injured MARI YAMAGUCHI, Associated Press March 16, 2022 TOKYO (AP) — A powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Fukushima in northern Japan on Wednesday night, smashing furniture, knocking out power and killing four people. A small tsunami reached shore, but the low-risk advisory was lifted by Thursday morning. The region is part of northern Japan that was devastated by a deadly 9.0 quake and tsunami 11 years ago that caused nuclear reactor meltdowns, spewing massive radiation that still makes some parts uninhabitable. Prime Minister Fumio Kishida told a parliamentary session Thursday morning that four people died during the quake and the cause of their deaths are being investigated, while 97 others were injured. A man in his 60s in Soma city died after falling from the second floor of his house while trying to evacuate, and a man in his 70s panicked and suffered a heart attack, Kyodo News reported earlier. The Japan Meteorological Agency early Thursday lifted its low-risk advisory for a tsunami along the coasts of Fukushima and Miyagi prefectures. Tsunami waves of 30 centimeters (11 inches) reached shore in Ishinomaki, about 390 kilometers (242 miles) northeast of Tokyo. The agency upgraded the magnitude of the quake to 7.4 from the initial 7.3, and the depth from 60 kilometers (36 miles) below the sea to 56 kilometers (35 miles). NHK footage showed broken walls of a department store building fell to the ground and shards of windows scattered on the street near the main train station in the inland prefectural capital of Fukushima city. Roads were cracked and water poured out from pipes underground. Footage also showed furniture and appliances smashed to the floor at apartments in Fukushima. Cosmetics and other merchandise at convenience stores fell from shelves and scattered on the floor. In Yokohama, near Tokyo, an electric pole nearly fell. The Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings, which operates the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant where the cooling systems failed after the 2011 disaster, said workers found no abnormalities at the site, which is being decommissioned. Japan's Nuclear Regulation Authority said a fire alarm went off at the turbine building of No. 5 reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi but there was no actual fire. Water pumps for the spent fuel cooling pool at two of the four reactors at Fukushima Daini briefly stopped, but later resumed operation. Fukushima Daini, which survived the 2011 tsunami, is also set for decommissioning. More than 2.2 million homes were temporarily without electricity in 14 prefectures, including the Tokyo region, but power was restored at most places by the morning, except for about 37,000 homes in the hardest hit Fukushima and Miyagi prefectures, according to the Tohoku Electric Power Co. which services the region. The quake shook large parts of eastern Japan, including Tokyo, where buildings swayed violently. East Japan Railway Co. said most of its train services were suspended for safety checks. Some local trains later resumed service. Many people formed long lines outside of major stations while waiting for trains to resume operation late Wednesday, but trains in Tokyo operated normally Thursday morning. A Tohoku Shinkansen express train partially derailed between Fukushima and Miyagi due to the quake, but nobody was injured, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said. He told reporters that the government was assessing the extent of damage and promised to do its utmost for rescue and relief operations. “Please first take action to save your life," Kishida tweeted. Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno said authorities were scrambling to assess damage. “We are doing our utmost in rescue operations and putting people's lives first,” he said. He urged residents in the affected areas to use extra caution for possible major aftershocks for about a week. |
