Regarding the city of Tamasu, Ishikawa Prefecture, which observed shaking with a seismic intensity of less than 6 in this earthquake, the Japan Meteorological Agency said that the ground was loosened due to strong shaking and the risk of sediment-related disasters due to rain was higher than usual. We have lowered the standard of "report" and "earth and sand disaster warning information" jointly announced by the prefecture and the Japan Meteorological Observatory to 70%.
The Japan Meteorological Agency has decided to operate according to this standard for the time being, pay close attention to how it rains in areas with strong shaking, and if heavy rain warnings or sediment-related disaster warning information are announced, it is safe to evacuate early. I want you to keep in mind to secure.
