After a strong earthquake of magnitude 6.2 occurred off the coast of Japan, the focal depth of the earthquake was monitored to be 30 kilometers, but it did not trigger a tsunami. Generally speaking, it is lucky, but it also adds a new record to the global strong earthquake data.

Strong earthquake, small-scale building damage.

Many people predict that the number of natural disasters in 2020 may be more than in previous years. Judging from today's situation, this fable seems to have been confirmed to some extent. Judging from many things at the beginning of this year, it was indeed an extraordinary year, but June itself was actually a period of high earthquake incidence. An earthquake of magnitude 5.8 also occurred in California, USA, and an earthquake of magnitude 5.6 occurred in the South Island of New Zealand.

The 6.2 earthquake in Japan was a great shock, but fortunately, the earthquake did not trigger a tsunami, which is undoubtedly good news for Japan, but the impact of strong earthquakes also exists. It is reported that residents in Tokyo and its surrounding Kanagawa Prefecture and saitama felt a very strong earthquake.

A high-rise building even kept shaking for about 30 seconds, which awakened many people who were asleep and frightened many Japanese residents. However, the earthquake did not bring great losses to Japan.

There will be aftershocks, but the traffic will not be affected.

After the earthquake, Japan released some monitoring data. According to the monitoring records, there was a very violent shaking at Narita International Airport in Tokyo at that time, but this time the shaking did not affect the traffic problems, so if you are in Japan, don't worry too much.

Japanese officials predict that after the earthquake, there should be slight aftershocks around Japan. According to the records, an earthquake of magnitude 4.5 occurred in some surrounding areas after the earthquake. Generally speaking, there have been many earthquakes in Japan in a short time recently. I hope there will be no persistent strong earthquakes in the future.

Scientists will keep a close eye on the sea in the future.

Because Japan is located near the Pacific Rim seismic belt, nearly 100 earthquakes occur every year. Some scientists think that there is a great possibility of a major earthquake in Japan in 2020. According to the prediction of the earthquake along the Pacific coast of Japan, some scientists believe that an earthquake of magnitude 9.3 may occur at the highest, which may also affect the sea surface and bring a tsunami about 30 meters high. If a tsunami really happens, the surrounding areas will be affected.

In this regard, Japanese scientists also monitor Japan's coastal areas, and will immediately issue earthquake and tsunami warnings in case of abnormal conditions. However, from the current point of view, the situation in Japanese waters is still relatively normal.
