EARTHQUAKE!!! TOKYO HIT HARD

ME!!! | March 11, 2011 | Ronin

[Ronin]

Tokyo just got smacked hard. Still feeling tremors. Refrigerator broken, glass everywhere. I'm safe.

Other Japan FReepers check in!!

and up rivers

[Straight Vermonter]

Kurihara is much farther in land than Sendai. I’m not sure why they would have gotten hit so hard.

God bless them .. sounds like something we’re now
lacking: a truly civil society.

Lord, hold those at risk in Your protection.

[Retired Greyhound]

try to be at least a few miles in.

I’m in Long Beach, about 3 miles from the coast. But we’re elevated.

Still, if I think there may be trouble I’ll head up to Lakewood.

[radu]

They’re showing a 4.5 and a 3.3 pretty much back-to-back there.
NOT what y’all need right now!
Prayers up for y’all.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Good. Australia’s been through quite enough, even though our press didn’t bother to cover those horrific floods.

[Cindy]

Those photos when connecting the red dots at your link are heartbreaking.

[Bikkuri]

That oil refinery is about 6 miles from me :/

I am ok, and on high ground.

Electricity flickered a few times, but still on...

[silverleaf]

was the city located along a river...I think the helo crew filming said the waves that inundated Sendai traveled almost 2 miles upriver amd then spead out from there

incredible film

[radu]

Ok, there’s NO WAY I’d stand close to both of y’all together during a storm! Heck, the two of y’all together might CREATE a storm! hee!

[flaglady47]

Is that a double entendre? Bush’s “fault” (think earthquake).

[silverleaf]

it’s not just the coast, it’s the bays and rivers, too

Just watched tonight what a 30 foot wave does to a town 2 miles upriver from the coast

[FightforFreedomCA]

Thanks - I’m trying to find a topographic map, but haven’t had much luck. I’m near Petaluma, so trying to figure out the level of possible danger.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

This seems very a very fluid situation so I would assume the worst and pray for the best. I do hope this will not affect Australia but....

Tsunami warnings issued for at least 20 countries after quake

[Straight Vermonter]

I just looked at the terrain map and it appears that Kurihara was in a low lying area. There are a number of towns closer to the ocean, also in low areas, that I have to assume were hit as well.

[Islander7]

I’m in Ewa, about 32 feet. I’m in a yellow zone, should be fine.

The tsunami warning center is located in Ewa Beach at about 10 feet above sea level. Talk about government planning!
