Mick Rich 78 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Just when you can almost stick them to the back of your mind, a shakey one comes and brings it right back to the front. M5.4 Tokyo, shindo 4. Yep, certainly felt that one!! Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Didn't feel it here, though Muikamachi got a shindo 1 apparently. Of course. (Of course). Link to post Share on other sites
iiyamadude 6 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Strong earthquake round these parts just now Kowai. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Shindo 2-3 in this area. Definitely felt that one. Same kind of area as last years March 12th.... maybe slightly to the west? Link to post Share on other sites
1 4 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Nozawa shindo 3 Hakuba shindo 3 Myoko shindo 4 Link to post Share on other sites
iiyamadude 6 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Yeah a bit to the west by the looks, Kijimadaira shindo 5. Wonder if it will be classed as an aftershock or not. Link to post Share on other sites
best skier in hakuba 5 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Definitely a bit of shaking going on here. I was on the 3rd floor of an old wooden building, so probably felt it more than other lucky people! Link to post Share on other sites
TheOriginalMyoko 0 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 4 here, a real shaker. Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Don't think it was an aftershock from last year as there were 13 aftershocks after the initial quake hit today. It is a new quake all of its own I think, focused in Nagano prefecture Hokubo Area! Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 A large percentage of quakes in the Tohoku region over the last year have been aftershocks of aftershocks of aftershocks (....of etc). The earth doesn't give them names itself. It seems likely that it is the same fault, just a little to the south west of the event on March 12th last year. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 How do they decide exactly what is an aftershock? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Good question, to which I don't know the proper answer. Something along the lines of "sparked off by another nearby event", or something? I reckon it might be more technical than that. But aftershocks are just..... earthquakes hey. Bastards.

tokabochi 9 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 The one yesterday does seem to be on the same fault line just slightly SW as was said before. Earthquakes, aftershocjs - call them what you want, as bad as each other. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Here's hoping the bit to the north east isn't about to crack as well. Link to post Share on other sites
fukdane 2 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Theres some kind of earthquake special tv show on either tomorrow or Friday, might - or not - be worth a watch. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 Must be tomorrow doesn't look like there's one like that on tonight. I see Sendai people will have been woken up by a shindo 5+ at 4am this morning. Doesn't seem to have been damage though, apart from to nerves. Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Rich 78 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Felt that one down here too! Link to post Share on other sites
dale#1 1 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 A truly horrible way to be woken up. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I think that woke me up as well, one of those "was that an earthquake" moments. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Lots of "news" today about the Nankai trough M9 quake-to-be killing an estimate 320,000 people. Nice. Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Tonight at 9pm. I think it's called Prestige or something. Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Lots of "news" today about the Nankai trough M9 quake-to-be killing an estimate 320,000 people. Nice. And the distribution of that number seems severely weighted to Shizuoka...... It was nice knowing you fellas... Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I suspect tonights program might be a celeb-infested one that could be condensed into about 5 minutes of useful info. Hope I'm wrong. On quite late though 9pm, which is interesting. Maybe. Link to post Share on other sites
gareth_oau 2 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Tonight at 9pm. I think it's called Prestige or something. LOL, I thought you meant they were predicting the quake would hit at 9pm tonight. I was thinking they are getting pretty smart att his sort of stuff! Link to post Share on other sites
