    Default 6.3 earthquake shakes Tokyo

    RIP to any victims...


    A magnitude 6.3 earthquake was reported in Japan on Tuesday. The tremors were strong enough to shake some of the buildings in Tokyo.
    The quake hit at the depth of 33 kilometers off the coast of Honshu Island, said US Geological Survey.
    Neither Japanese nor US authorities didn’t issue a tsunami warning.
    No damage or injury from Tuesday's tremor has been reported so far.
    Tokyo Electric Power Co says no abnormalities at its nuclear plants in Fukushima have been registered. The facilities, which were severely damaged just a year ago by a magnitude 9 quake and the massive tsunami that followed, became an epicenter of one of the worst nuclear crises in global modern history.
    Since that disaster, which took some 20,000 lives in Japan, there has been a five-fold increase in earthquakes in the Tokyo metropolitan area, says the Tokyo University Earthquake Research Institute as reported by Reuters.

    How is that political?
    Nobody was harmed, it's not that rare for Japan to have such earthquakes and the state didn't have any shortcomings.
    We had a few earthquakes in here a few days ago. I didn't think it was appropriate to start a topic.

    Why not write about some possible ones in your OP? At the moment there is nothing political to discuss, so this thread will be closed until you PM me some ideas for an improved OP.
