Jeepers Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 A 7.6 Earthquake hit a couple of hours ago. A tsunami warning was issued and some people have been evacuated. Praying for the people and...sigh, their nuclear reactors. 3 Quote Link to comment
Littlesister Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I heard something about it a couple of hours ago. Prayers for those people in Japan and that the nuclear reactors will be ok. I need to turn the news on. I haven't done that much in the past 2 months. 2 Quote Link to comment

euphrasyne Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Dh has visited there several times in the last few years. He told me yesterday about the earthquake. I hope everyone he knew there is safe and that they will recover soon. 3 Quote Link to comment
Littlesister Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 The doctor I worked for was Japanese. His brother was a diplomat. I met him a couple of times when his niece was found dead in her college dorm room in Maryland. When they came to the office, I couldn't understand anything they said. They didn't speak English and none of us other than the doctor spoke Japanese. One of my neighbors is now a contractor for the Navy and has been sent to Japan several times. I saw pictures of the area of the earthquake. It is bad over there. 1 2 Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 There were tsunami evacuations and fortunately they ended rather quickly. Very scary for those people. On the Jan. 1st. we had an earthquake in the county east of me. 2.2 For a year I lived about a 2 hour drive from Nagasaki, Japan. Atomic bomb. 1945. 2 Quote Link to comment
Littlesister Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Seems earthquakes are suddenly becoming more frequent for 2024. Quote Link to comment
Mt_Rider Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I've felt relatively mild earthquakes in Iowa, Hawai'i, Colorado, and ....oddly, Georgia. Remember that one Miki?...Darlene? That one felt like a big SHOVE! Since when I walk I sometimes get off balance so that it feels like a mild earthquake feels..... MtRider 1 Quote Link to comment
Littlesister Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I saw on news this morning that CA had an earthquake but nothing about damage or anything. They are starting to become closer together now. And they don't always put it on the news anymore unless is has done a lot of damage. 1 Quote Link to comment
