Magnitude-6.7 quake hits Japan

Argh, pretty shocking on them, though I don't fancy taking a 6.7 earthquake for them (N)

I'm hoping for the earthquakes to end, but since Japan is an island, and is right under the moving plate tectonics, there is nothing we can do other than leaving to live in a different country...But, I do think that magnitude 6 is way better than the enormous earthquake that killed so many people. Although, we do still have some minor aftershocks every month, I think it really has gotten better:)

I'll keep praying for Japan as well! :D

Has your prefecture been affected? :o

I really feel for Japan, 8.9 magnitude then 7?! I'm really glad we don't have earthquakes at that severe a level, infact earthquakes at all.

Oh dear, one after another not good!

^ Btw if your referring to England not having any earthquakes - then we do, just small ones. We do also have bigs one, rare though :)

Sorry for double posting but I just saw on the news a 2.7 hit a devon town, I know nothing major but it links on to what I said :)

These sorts of earthquakes are normal for Japan they have hundreds of years and their country is prepared for them, it's just the media once again blowing things out of proportion.

Awww, not having much luck this year are they? :( Hope everything turns out alright sooner or later! :) x

Wow, they really need a break!

The Japs seem to be having it really rough lately as do most of the Pacific countries (New Zealand, Austrialia) but i'm sure they'll come out just fine, some of the pictures of the extent of the cleanup are amazing - I dread to think what it would be like of something one tenth the size of what hit Japan hit the British Isles!

Glad there were no casualties.
Shame though, they're trying to clean up and everything and another one comes along :(
