In Toshima Village, Kagoshima Prefecture, where a strong tremor with a seismic intensity of 5 or higher was observed on the 9th, earthquakes with epicenters near the Tokara Islands have continued since then, and the Japan Meteorological Agency should be careful of earthquakes with strong tremors for the next few weeks. I'm calling.

In the magnitude 6.1 earthquake that occurred before noon on the 9th, with a magnitude of 6.1 in the sea near the Tokara Islands, strong tremors with a seismic intensity of 5 or higher were observed on Akusekijima in Toshima Village and on Kodakarajima with a seismic intensity of 4.



Earthquakes have occurred one after another in and around the Tokara Islands from the 4th of this month, and 260 earthquakes with shaking with a seismic intensity of 1 or higher have been observed by 11:00 am on the 10th.



By date,


▽ 4th is 59 times


▽ 5th is 87 times


▽ 6th is 45 times


▽ 7th is 27 times


▽ 8th is 5 times


▽ 9th is 36 times,


▽ 10th is until 11:00 am It is once every time.



Akusekijima, which observed a seismic intensity of 5 or higher, has not been injured, but many residents are worried about the future due to the occurrence of landslides, so Toshima Village will arrive at the island on the morning of the 11th. I am evacuating those who wish to go outside the island.



So far, 35 people from 14 households have been hoping to rent and accept hotels in Kagoshima and Amami.



The Japan Meteorological Agency says that the risk of rockfalls and landslides has increased due to the earthquakes so far, and is calling for attention to earthquakes with strong shaking with a seismic intensity of 5 or higher for the next few weeks.
