Japan faces soaring number of feared dead

With punishing aftershocks continuing to jolt the quake zone, the Japan Meteorological Agency revised the magnitude of the earthquake to 9.0, Kyodo News agency said. The upgrade made the quake one of the largest ever recorded in terms of magnitude.

Adding to the urgency of rescue efforts, the agency said there was a 70% probability of a magnitude-7 quake in the next three days.

The 9 mg eq could be a foreshock to something even bigger.

More from the article.

On Sunday, the cooling system at a third reactor at the Fukushima plant was reported to be malfunctioning as well and at risk of exploding much the way a sister reactor did Saturday because of hydrogen build-up, Edano said in an afternoon press briefing.

Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan instructed the president of Toshiba Corp., the maker of the damaged reactors, to assist in the crisis at the plant, the Kyodo agency reported. wtf

The International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna said it was told by Japanese officials that they would distribute iodine tablets to residents near the plant. Iodine is known to protect against thyroid cancer that can develop from radiation poisoning.

Yes... it is a very small but definite possibility.

The 7.2 earthquake on 3-9-11 had many smaller aftershocks...
but when the 8.9 eq happened on 3-11, scientists now say
the 7.2 was a foreshock... and there is an outside chance
the 9 mg eq could also be a foreshock to something bigger.

"Japan is an earthquake-prone archipelago, and lining its waterfront are 54 nuclear plants. It's been like a suicide bomber wearing grenades around his belt," said Katsuhiko Ishibashi, a professor emeritus at Kobe University.

Ishibashi served on a committee setting safety guidelines for Japan's nuclear reactors in 2005, but resigned because he felt people weren't heeding his warnings about the potential for a disaster.

In 2007, another nuclear plant, Kashiwazaki-Kariwa, suffered serious damage in an earthquake.

Since Friday's quake, a dozen of the country's reactors have been shut down, sharply reducing the power supply to the country. Authorities have been urging civilians to conserve power during the crisis.

Yes they were saying this on NHK world earlier. Now they have just lifted the tsunami warning in many prefectures. They keep changing their minds. We'll see what happens. They also keep raising the death-o-meter around too. 1k, 1.6k, 10k etc

Made new thread with poll for seeing what other think might happen.

Here - Thread: High probability of 7.0+ EQ in Japan in next 3 days - Japan Met. Agency say 70%

Many thoughts for the people facing difficult times because of this.
