Hmm. We seem to be experiencing noticeable seismic activity again which began yesterday with a M2.6 and today has continued with a 2.5 and a more pronounced M3.7 minutes later. JMA indicates the quakes’ epicenter at the base of the Uto Peninsula. It appears the Futagawa fault runs along the northern end of the peninsula, a section which has not yet ruptured. Please compare the JMA map below with the fault geography. You might want to keep your bathtub filled for toilet water just in case. - William

Update with third figure. I don’t want to alarm anyone, just to keep you aware: geologists suggest that the Uto branch of the fault may be more connected with inner-city seismic activity than the Mashiki branch. If anyone has any questions, please let us know. I’m extra-cautious after downplaying the foreshock that led to the previous quake.
