All I want to know is this near Fukishima?
Very far NE away. See map.
It’s 150 miles up the coast from the crippled plant.
To put it into perspective, the town of Iwate was wiped out in 2011 by the same tsunami that took out the power plant.
That wave was caused by a 9.0 earthquake. This one is 6.9. The shelf’s the same, but the epicenter’s about 80 miles up the coast and 40 miles closer to the shoreline.
6.9 Richter = 337,000 tons of TnT
9.0 Richter = 470,000,000 tons of TnT
