Does anyone else find the way of using tsunami.gov totally baffling? It tells the user almost nothing, and the target of all the hrefs for the supposed messages listed in the map is just the tsunami.gov homepage again. The entire above-the-fold is occupied by the map, and the map tells the user nothing.

Maybe don’t rely for such information on defunded US agencies…

NHK (english): https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/news/20251209_02/

> The Japanese government set up a task force at the crisis management center in the prime minister's office at 11:16 p.m. on Monday in response to the earthquake.

Was in a hotel in Sapporo, almost got thrown out of bed. Lot of people in the hotel lobby now.

Considering leaving Hokkaido by air if a Hokkaido and Sanriku Subsequent Earthquake Advisory is issued, don't really want to be in a potential megaquake.
