Major Earthquake and Tsunami Strike Japan


"The biggest earthquake to hit Japan since records began struck the Pacific coast of the country's northeast. Tsunami waves are hitting a wide-ranging area from Hokkaido in the north to Okinawa in the south.

Japan's Meteorological Agency says the quake struck at 2:46 PM with a magnitude of 8.8.

A tsunami surging higher than 7.3 meters struck Fukushima Prefecture. Tsunami waves higher than 4 meters were observed in other districts of northeastern Japan."

NHK. Thoughts and prayers are with the Japanese. It's times like these where anime, games, and all other frivolous hobbies drop by the wayside. Keep safe.
