Twitter is saying 6.8, but who knows!

That's still way too strong for comfort...

2012! In with a bang!

Now upgraded to 7.0

Actually, other people are saying 7.2 as well.

Shit!

What timing .

Is it just me... or are there more of these 7.0 and above quakes lately?!?

Was pretty strong here in Tokyo. Had to grab a few things to hold them down.

Izu Islands region, quiet south. Tsunami could be possible for mainland.

Didn't Intuition say something about this a couple of days ago?
