Reports of a 20 CM high tsunami. If it's high tide, that can cause problems.

Red Puma and USGS reporting as 6.9. Red Puma is usually reliable.

Foreshocks. That 8.0+ is still waiting to happen. What's left of the SFPs won't handle that.

Then what are we going to do then?
Our storms are back again today.
I'm really wondering what the future holds.

Weather and winds coming..on Thursday..strong winds from the NE will blow 20 knots towards the ocean. Then on the 18 or 19th a gale gives more W winds..blowing towards the sea. Wind is not a friend for Fukushima right now. People need to check the wind directions and take care/stay out of rain, wear masks.

I am curious to see what happens on March 22nd… or within a few days either way…
