6.6 Earthquake hit Japan

Heres a link. It hit at 1013 Japan time.

It wasn't near me thankfully. 2+ million homes are without power and 3+ million without gas as well. Only 30 army troops are helping out.
A tsunami warning was issued and later lifted.

I know! We are waiting on another board to hear from a member! So scary!!!

I hope this was the right place to post.
We are having a few nature problems at the moment, a typhoon 2 days ago, earthquake and a few thunderstorms today.

They just had another earthquake 10 minutes ago. 5. something.
4 dead so far which, is relatively good considering the magnatude.

That`s scary!
Glad your ok. Stay safe!

I'm glad you're okay. I was thinking about you when I heard the news.

I love your siggy!

I just read that the nuclear power plant not only had a fire, but also leaked several hundred gallons of radioactive water into the Sea of Japan.

Green, glowing fish, anyone?

I'm glad everything is ok where you are! I hope there are no more aftershocks.

Be safe

Glad to hear you are ok.Scary situation

That's what I heard, too.

This doesn't sound like a great time to be in Japan. Glad you're okay.

Thank you, fortunately that area is out of range, I never felt it. The sad thing is, I was on the phone to a mate back home in NZ and he was the one that told me about it, he was reading the news as we were on the phone.

I made the siggy myself, first time ever to use photoshop for anything other than a photo album. Unfortunately its not as big as I had hoped. Not sure if you can read Neko's caption.

That might have happened from the 2nd earthquake, first one it was supposed to be ok.

I won't be eating glowing fish. I don't do well with seafood.

We heard from our forum member- thanks for asking! He is in Osaka, and is fine .
