Incredible experience. Good job, Japanese earthquake predictive technology and national TV networks.

Knowing it is coming perhaps makes the feelings more intense, with the sentiment of anticipation setting in.

do you know where in NW Japan? My daughter lived for 2 years in Tajima in Fukushima Prefecture, and has several friends who are still there.

They have been testing this system in California... basically because the sensors can alert a network faster than the waves move through the earth.... I am glad to see it work in Japan......In CA it will probably never work, due to different entities involved.

Felt it here, about 30 mi SW of Tokyo. Didn’t pay it much mind - figured it was one of the usual 5.0 +/- just off the coast. Yikes.

TV broke with news on all channels IN ADVANCE OF EARTHQUAKE, warning people to "get ready".

How much advance?
