BREAKING NEWS: 6.5 Magnitude Aftershock Hits Japan w/ Tsunami Advisory or Warning

They just said on CNN that the Japanese Meteorological Society is the one that issued the tsunami advisory. They did say that there is no threat to Hawaii or anywhere else. Only local.

Good to know. Thanks for the info bro!

Per CNN there is a Tsunami Advisory for Japan only, local advisory

They don't sound too worried on twitter in Japan. I did also notice that they are getting closer to the surface.

Great news in upper right

Lets not all forget the difference between an advisory and a warning. Advisory meaning that a tsunami could occur where as a warning menas it has been spotted and is coming. A tsunami advisory is pretty standard after a 6 + quack.

Good that it was a small one - I was worried even more this time because
the sea is contaminated.

1-2 foot tsunami. Just get them off the island.

Yes by all meaans they must check out the place for sea water contamination of the land from the tsunami......The chances of contamination may be small, or not.....But if this keeps up there could be serious consequences from sea water contaminating even more land than the nuke plants.
