In the Noto region of Ishikawa Prefecture, where an earthquake with a maximum seismic intensity of 7 occurred at around 16:10 on January 1st, including the earthquake with a maximum seismic intensity of 5 or higher that occurred immediately before the earthquake at around 16:06, today is the 8th. As of 11 a.m., 15 earthquakes with a maximum seismic intensity of lower than 5 have been observed, and 151 earthquakes with a maximum seismic intensity of 3 or more have been observed.
2020 Noto Peninsula Earthquake 15 times since New Year’s Day with a maximum seismic intensity of 5 lower
At around 16:10 on January 1st, a magnitude 7.6 earthquake occurred with its epicenter in the Noto region of Ishikawa Prefecture, and a seismic intensity of 7 was observed in Shiga Town, Ishikawa Prefecture. At around 16:06, just before the magnitude 7 earthquake was observed, a magnitude 5.7 earthquake occurred with its epicenter in the Noto region of Ishikawa Prefecture, and a magnitude 5+ earthquake was observed in Suzu City, Ishikawa Prefecture. Since then, earthquakes have occurred one after another, mainly in Ishikawa Prefecture.
The day before yesterday on the 6th, at around 23:20, a magnitude 4.3 earthquake occurred off the coast of the Noto Peninsula, and a magnitude 6 earthquake was observed in Shiga Town, Ishikawa Prefecture. Three earthquakes with a maximum seismic intensity of 4 occurred yesterday on the afternoon of the 7th.
In the series of Noto Peninsula earthquakes in 2020, 15 earthquakes with a maximum seismic intensity of lower 5 or higher and 151 earthquakes with a maximum seismic intensity of 3 or higher have been observed as of 11 a.m. today, the 8th.
Be careful of snow and cold
Today, the 8th, the winter-like atmospheric pressure pattern has strengthened, and there are places in the Noto region that are experiencing heavy snowfall. There is also a risk of houses collapsing due to snowfall, so please avoid approaching dangerous areas. There is a risk that the roads may become icy, so please be careful of your step when moving.
The temperature is also low, with many places around the Noto Peninsula around 2 degrees Celsius as of noon. Try to stay as warm as possible with layers of clothing and blankets. Wrapping newspaper around your body is also effective.
Continue to be careful about seismic activity
Areas that were shaken strongly by the M7.6 earthquake that occurred on January 1st are at increased risk of collapsed houses and landslides.・Please pay close attention to snowfall conditions and take precautions to ensure your own safety by not entering dangerous areas unless there are unavoidable circumstances.
According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, in the past, 10% to 20% of earthquakes of the same magnitude occurred after a major earthquake, so in areas where the shaking was strong due to the M7.6 earthquake that occurred on January 1st, People are being asked to be careful about an earthquake with a maximum seismic intensity of 7 that will occur for about a week. Please continue to exercise caution as seismic activity has continued in this area for over three years and is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. The range of seismic activity has expanded since January 1st, and stronger shaking has been observed over a wider area than before. If a large-scale earthquake occurs on the ocean floor, you need to be careful about tsunamis.
