Isn't that about the 3rd quake in the range of 7 magnitude in the last few weeks? Is that normal for Japan? I know they get a lot of quakes but I don't know if these are unusual because of the magnitude.

This is like the third 6+ in the last week. Wasn’t there a 7+ in Northern Japan last month too?

Yikes! Passing this on to my best friend.
His Japanese wife and his sons are on Honshu. They go there every summer to visit family when the boys are out of school.

Prayers for safety to all the people in Japan and neighboring islands. I hope the ships are properly tethered to the piers.
