typhoon , now earthquake rocks northern Japan

We've really have had hard this year. A heat wave where people were falling down dead. Then the typhoon we just had. Now last night a very strong earthquake.
Newest news shows landslides covering homes. Not sure how many people are missing.

geez, I fear Japan is not geologically "of the Earth" for long I hope this isnt a foreshock...fortunately it seems fairly deep, but after all the precipitation...damn,really fear for Japans long term.

Stay safe over there , you guys are getting hammered by nature.

Both we're caused by man, not nature

Maybe fix the radiation leak and Godzilla will go back to sleep.

March 11, 2011 there was an earthquake that registered over 9.0 in Japan and there have been 8 earthquakes over 7.0 in Japan since. Nothing big from 2016 to 2018 though?

The BBC has a video of the after effects of Jebi

There might be some truth to that. With all the new oil wells being drilled in the ocean these day, it could change the balance of natural occurring quakes.

Mmmm k, lets not do this eh?

We all know that man doesnt control the tectonic plates or the flow of molten rock or pressure deep in the earth.

Just........no

The Islands can't seem to get a rest
these days.

Worrisome geological and weather patterns.

so the ring of fire and 3 major faults near Tokyo...caused by man...right, I see common core is still thriving.

I live on the coast so I am always worried about tsunamis, mother nature can be scary and powerful.

Yeah, I know it got hot by Japanese standards... Still though, regular temperatures of 35 degrees and a record high of 41 degrees, could hardly be considered a "heat wave" by global standards.

Then hearing how people were just dropping dead due to those temperatures... it kinda makes me wonder

I mean, Considering it'd just be a typical summer, where I'm from.

So, does that mean if we ended up having those typical below freezing winter temperatures, which occur in that part of the world... that people here would be dropping dead as well?

Most likely yes.

Im from Texas, so im use to the heat and humidity , in areas where I live sometimes it gets over 115f, and we worked outside, did construction did whatever. No issues. Not to mention my time in the middle east as a soldier.

When I lived up north for a bit, a summer it was a consistent 100-102 degrees for several weeks and there were several deaths involved with it.

Peoples bodies adapt to the climate they are in.

It could be that all that extra water soaking into ground, percolates into the fault lines and lubricates the friction points.

Update:
One town rang in at 7 on the scale. 9 people dead, 41 known are unaccounted for. This quake did so much damage. I kind of think the typhoon that hit the ocean 2 days may have had something to do with this.

I lived in a place where winters hovered around -40 (that's where C &F cross). We survived just fine because we were accustomed to it.

You'd probably die

Isn't this where Godzilla comes in ?

Japan is being hit in places with tremendous storms and
intense earthquakes. Since prediction of where the next
big one will not be possible, the entire island and outlying
islands should be permanently relocated. If this is not done
then Japan will face a future that includes mega
destruction and death.
