At the latitude of this earthquake, the Pacific plate moves approximately westwards with respect to the North America plate at a velocity of 83 mm/yr. The Pacific plate thrusts underneath Japan at the Japan Trench, and dips to the west beneath Eurasia. The location, depth, and focal mechanism of the March 11 earthquake are consistent with the event having occurred as thrust faulting associated with subduction along this plate boundary.

President Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III on Friday ordered the mandatory evacuation of residents in coastal areas in 19 provinces expected to be affected by tsunami waves. Presidential Spokesman Edwin Lacierda said the first tidal wave is expected to hit Batanes Group of Islands at 5:46 p.m. and will affect Cagayan, Ilocos Norte and Isabela. Residents living in coastal areas fronting the Pacific Ocean of the following provinces were also ordered to seek higher ground.
TextThousands of people living on the east coast of the Philippines have started to leave their homes and proceed to evacuation centers as they brace for the arrival of tsunamis triggered by a massive earthquake that hit Japan on Friday.

Checking in from Hawaii...
Went to the store a couple hours ago, the gas stations were packed... Felt the car shake and confirmed that there was a small earthquake here in Hawaii... It was a little unnerving that the earthquake happened about 2 mins before the hourly tsunami warning sirens that have been going off tonight.
At home now... We are about half a mile from the ocean.
We have decided to stay home.
I feel strangely calm right now even with all of this happening.
Tohoku Electric Power Co. says smoke was observed coming out of the building, which is separate from the plant's reactor, and the cause is under investigation. The plant is in Miyagi prefecture.
