Earthquake Japan: Western US Next


Geez, another quake and just a few days past the one year anniversary of the “big” one. I hate to say it, but this Hillbilly is predicting a large quake here along the Western Coast of the US in the next year. If I remember my geology class from college, when pressure is relieved in one area, it builds in another. My prayers are with these people.

A 6.8 magnitude earthquake rocked northeastern Japan today, causing the Japanese Meteorological Agency to issue a tsunami warning. It struck about 170 miles off the east coast. A spokesman for Tohoku Electric Power, which operates two nuclear power plants in the area, said they were unaffected.

The quake comes just three days after the one-year anniversary of that disaster, and on Sunday the cities of Japan were silent as families remembered the losses suffered in the disaster. Last year Google used their Street View cars to compile before and after pictures of the areas struck by the tsunami, and the results were staggering. As a good many people affected are still trying to pick up the pieces in the aftermath, many here in the states and beyond are offering prayers and thoughts to Japan.
