At the earthquake observation point of the Japan Meteorological Agency on Hegurajima in Wajima City, north of the Noto region of Ishikawa Prefecture, where active seismic activity continues, seismograph and seismic intensity meter data could not be sent from the end of last month, but the Japan Meteorological Agency said on the 1st. In the afternoon, it was announced that the communication equipment had been restored.


It means that we will be able to announce Earthquake Early Warnings as before.

At the observation point on "Hegurajima", about 50 km north of Wajima City, there was a problem that data such as seismographs and seismic intensity meters could not be sent on the 22nd of last month, and the Japan Meteorological Agency announced an Earthquake Early Warning at the maximum of 5. He cautioned that it could be delayed by about 10 seconds from the second.



Regarding this, the Japan Meteorological Agency announced on the afternoon of the 1st that the restoration work of the observation point was completed, and it is said that the Earthquake Early Warning and the observed seismic intensity can be announced as before.



During the nine days it took to recover, there were no earthquakes in the Noto region or around Hegurajima where an Earthquake Early Warning was announced.



The cause of the trouble seems to be the malfunction of the replaced router.



The Japan Meteorological Agency said, "We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the obstacles while the seismic activity continues in the Noto region. We will consider carefully planning the repair and maintenance of equipment in areas where earthquakes occur one after another." It is said that.
