The “Hokkaido and Sanriku Coastal Earthquake Warning Report” previously issued by the Japan Meteorological Agency expired and was cancelled in the early morning of the 16th. The Japanese government said that this does not mean that the possibility of a large-scale earthquake has disappeared, and called on the public to continue preparing for disaster prevention, including confirming shelters and evacuation routes. A 7.5 magnitude earthquake occurred in the eastern waters of Aomori Prefecture in Japan on the 8th. The depth of the earthquake was about 54 kilometers. The earthquake was also felt in Tokyo. The tsunami was observed in many parts of Japan. In response to this earthquake, the Japan Meteorological Agency and the Cabinet Office first released “Warning Information on Successive Earthquakes Along the Hokkaido/Sanriku Coast” in the early morning of the 9th.
