I have watched several hours of coverage on Japan news. The death toll is up to 29, and 1,600+ treated in hospitals. Roads out bridges damaged. Some areas isolated. Helicopters shown loading 10 people on board, or hauling up a litter by rope with injured person. Mud slides, a cascade of water over one destroyed road area, and they are predicting heavy rains this weekend.
Here are a number of photos and maps of the affected area.

And that is with the greatest earthquake technology on earth.
