Powerful undersea earthquake strikes near Japan’s destroyed Fukushima nuclear site, no tsunami threat. The quake came nearly 10 years since a more powerful quake caused a massive tsunami to hit Fukushima prefecture on March 11, 2011, killing 16,000 people and causing three nuclear reactors to meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant. There was no tsunami warning called after Saturday’s quake.
Saturday’s earthquake, with a magnitude of 7.3, had an epicenter off the coast at a depth of 60 kilometers (30 miles) the Japan Meteorological Agency said, adding there was no risk of a tsunami. The Japan Meteorological Agency said Saturday’s shake was as an aftershock of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami. It warned that affected areas should be prepared for possible aftershocks of a similar scale for the next week.
The Tokyo Electric Power Company said more than 830,000 homes had lost power in the Kanto region around Tokyo. It said crews did not detect radiation leaks or other abnormalities at the destroyed Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant.

Pray for Japan.
