The news (I’m watching TV now) is still warning people to evacuate, showing it in big letters and with exclamation points, and in English along with Japanese, so the threat isn’t over yet.
There was literally a Jp magnitude 5 aftershock not 5 minutes ago, and the news is still blasting “evacuate” messages on the screen, so…
I’m lucky, I’m far enough away that it was only about a Jp 4 here, but over 30,000 homes are without power in winter and at least one major cellular phone company is reporting they’re down in Ishikawa. It’s not fine at all.
I was trying to be reassuring but of course this is a difficult situation for you and more so for the people in those 30,000 homes and even worse for the few people who lost a relative in those quakes.
Fortunately, you are amongst the lucky ones and there was no large tsunami as I have hoped so before.
So again, I hope you well and if you can take some rest and distance yourself somewhat from those bad news and bad screens it might help.
Take care and despite everything I wish you a Happy (happier) New year

I hope you well and, from the little I can see, it would have been about 70 km from the main coast, you should be fine by now 👍
