Japan & nearby earthquake activity

Observed seismicity · Not a forecast

Live / recent measured quakes (including Taiwan, Ryukyu, Bonin, Kuril edge and East China Sea). Earthquakes cannot be precisely predicted; 2-week and 1-month views are observation windows, not forecasts of future epicentres.

When the ground shakes

Drop, Cover, Hold On — get under sturdy furniture; protect head and neck.
Stay away from glass, shelves and hanging lights; avoid lifts.
In hotels: follow staff and announcements; don’t rush stairs in a panic.

Coast & tsunami

After strong or long shaking near the coast, move inland or to higher ground quickly.
Watch JMA tsunami alerts and hotel evacuation routes; never return to the shore for photos.

Before & during your trip

Install a reliable emergency-info app; keep hotel Wi‑Fi / roaming ready.
Note consulate contacts; agree a family check-in plan.
