It has been 14 days and a week since the earthquakes that observed strong shaking with a seismic intensity of 5 or higher occurred in Tokyo and Saitama.
No earthquakes with a seismic intensity of 1 or higher have been observed around the epicenter in recent days, but the Japan Meteorological Agency has said that the Kanto region is active in seismic activity and that large-scale earthquakes may occur at any time in the future. I am calling for you to proceed.
A week ago, after 10:40 pm on the 7th of this month, a magnitude 5.9 earthquake with a magnitude of 5.9 in northwestern Chiba Prefecture observed strong tremors with a seismic intensity of over 5 in Adachi Ward, Tokyo, Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, and Miyashiro Town. However, seismic intensity 5 lower was observed in Tokyo, Saitama prefecture, Chiba prefecture, and Kanagawa prefecture.
It is the first time that we have observed shaking with a seismic intensity of 5 or higher in the 23 wards of Tokyo since the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred 10 years ago.
According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, four earthquakes with a seismic intensity of 1 or higher have been observed around the epicenter by midnight on the 14th, but there have been no noticeable earthquakes in the last few days.
However, an earthquake of the same magnitude occurred in July 2005, 16 years ago, near the epicenter, and at this time, an earthquake with a seismic intensity of 4 shook two weeks after the first earthquake.
The Japan Meteorological Agency says that the Kanto region is active in earthquakes and that large-scale earthquakes can occur at any time, and is calling for preparations for earthquakes on a daily basis.
