UPDATE 22:23 UTC : Many of our sources which are also used by Japanse citizens are almost unreachable due to too heavy demand. Not only Earthquake-Report seem to have this problem.

UPDATE 22:08 UTC: We have reached at this moment 100,000 pageviews (today alone). These pages have been viewed by 42,000 people (we do write alot of information on 1 page). James and myself are making a CALL to insurance companies, authorities, universities and individual seismologists to JOIN Earthquake-Report to inform the world even better than today. We assume some people who can afford it can make a small donation to transfer to a quicker server :)) - Thanks in advance.

UPDATE 21:38 UTC: We would like to show our readers the seismographs of todays earthquake in Japan. We are using a worldwide seismograph network to show to our readers the graphics of a particular seismograph nearest to the epicenter.
Due to the many very strong aftershocks (often more than 6) all seismographs worldwide are coloring completely BLACK !

Click here to see this seismograph page

UPDATE 21:38 UTC: The TEPCO Unit 1 of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station in Fukushima Prefecture has a big problem and is overviewing different measures to cope with it. We will bring you more news when we obtain it.
These nuclear power stations have been designed to resist to massive earthquakes, but today's earthquake is beyond all thinkable magnitudes.
The discussion about the safety of Nuclear Power stations in earthquake sensitive areas will be certainly reopened again.

UPDATE 21:36 UTC: WE DO APOLOGIZE TO OUR READERS FOR THE SLOW to VERY SLOW RESPONSE OF THE SERVER. We have 15 times more visitors today than during the Christchurch earthquake. The server can't cope with this and we have a lot of problems to edit pages on our own server. Based on this experience we will try to solve this problem for future events. Once again our apologies.

UPDATE 21:22 UTC: Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima Prefectures did suffer the devastating tsunami at full force. A lot of people are missing.
The whole picture of the damage is still unknown.
According to police, there are more than 700 missing persons. Together with the confirmed fatalities, the cruel death toll of this earthquake will be over 1,000 (very conservative estimate).

UPDATE 21:13 UTC: A number of our Japanese news sources which are publishing out of the heavy damaged areas are off line since the mainshock.

UPDATE 18:15 UTC: Most news and fatality numbers are coming from the city of Sendai, but when the reports will be coming in from the small fisherman villages along the same coast the death toll will considerably climb. A similar 8.4 earthquake earlier this century killed in comparable conditions 3,034 people.

UPDATE 18:08 UTC: Twitter reported that when the earthquake struck 1000 tweets a minute were exchanged through their system within Tokyo alone.

UPDATE 18:01 UTC: Different sources say that the tsunami damage outside Japan will be minimal. It will take several hours before we have more news of the small islands in the pacific closest to the epicenter. A lot of these islands have poor communications and often NO alert systems to warn for an upcoming tsunami.

UPDATE 17:50 UTC: The tsunami waves who travelled via Hawaii to the American western coast were minimal and did not make any damage.

UPDATE 17:48 UTC: It is currently night in Japan and will take a couple of hours more before the authorities are able to give more details about the damage or the fatalities, but they will be surely very cruel.

UPDATE 16:53 UTC: Japanese officials say over 400 are confirmed dead, 350+ others missing and hundreds of others injured. The death toll will likely climb throughout the days and weeks ahead. Again, CATDAT expects a $100 billion pricetag at least.

UPDATE 16:34 UTC: According to police, in the city of Sendai 200-300 people were found dead in Wakabayashi-ku. At this moment, in total, 131 people are confirmed dead. Until later tonight UTC time, it is difficult to get more information, as it is currently night time in Japan. The full extent of the damage will be discovered in the morning.

Tsunami Japan March 11 2011

UPDATE 15:04 UTC: Tsunami destruction in Maui, Hawaii, with 2.5m high waves.

UPDATE 15:00 UTC: We are starting to get some worrying news from the center of the tsunami-hit region. At least 300 people are dead, and we have 10000+ missing (we have values of 88000, while people do not know what is happening). 5862 people were evacuated in Fukushima following the reactor overheating due to power failure. Sendai airport is completely underwater. The cost of which will be large. The aircraft there are unknown. Again, we expect losses exceeding $100 billion USD.

UPDATE 14:44 UTC: According to police, in Miyagi Prefecture, the number of bodies were found at 200 and 300 Wakabayashi-ku Sendai City. Sendai city is the fact that the tsunami reached out major damage to nearly 10 km away from the shoreline in Wakabayashi ward. That means, that 10km inland we can expect tsunami damage. Also, is that people are missing out on because of Ishinomaki City and Kesennuma due to the tsunami. According to the Police in addition, in the city of Ishinomaki "Yamanishi Shipbuilding" stated from "The tsunami washed away after the ship carrying 100 people" is that it came in contact. Further information is not known, the police are investigating a coast guard headquarters. In addition, in Miyagi Prefecture was confirmed 16 deaths. Also, according to the Fire and Disaster Management Agency, in Natori City- many people are on the roof. In Iwate Prefecture, was confirmed 34 deaths. It is also fact that the whereabouts of many people I know. Of these, According to Ofunato, the city is that 11 people were killed. The town has killed five â–½ Yamada. 5 people in the city Rikuzentakata â–½, three in Kuji â–½, two people died in the city of Miyako â–½. In addition, the city of seven Ootsuti â–½, one people died in the village Tanohata â–½.

UPDATE 14:03 UTC: We are sorry to inform everyone watching. According to the information entered the Miyagi Prefectural Police Headquarters, in Wakabayashi-ku Sendai Arahama is that dead bodies were found. 200 to 300 people believed to have drowned to death. The confirmed death toll stands at 95, but we can only assume that it will rise substantially.

UPDATE 13:33 UTC: The death toll has risen to 95 confirmed deaths with missing accounts in the 100s-1000s, according to news reports from NHK, and other Japanese sources.
UPDATE 13:33 UTC: Espirito Santo analyst Joy Ferneyhough estimates losses could be between $30 billion (£19 billion) and $50 billion (£30 billion), depending on the "insurance density" of the area hit. Other analysts were more sanguine. This would be about on par with the $100 billion total loss estimate coming out of CATDAT.

UPDATE 13:11 UTC: 64 are reported dead, and 100s missing. The latest report of missing persons comes from 48 missing (mostly students) in Iwate Oohunato who were swept away by the tsunami. With an earthquake of this scale, the true totals and costs will not become apparent for about 2-5 days. And then the further economic costs will be calculated. A final total of $100 billion USD may not be so far from the true cost.

UPDATE 12:58 UTC: The current JDMA list has 22 dead, 43 injured, however news reports have the death toll much higher. Of the 34 Miyagi fires, only 2 have been extinguished at the moment

UPDATE 12:56 UTC: Japan's All Nippon Airways Co. said 131 domestic and international flights were cancelled, grounding 32,700 passengers. Including flights which changed destinations, the earthquake affected 162 flights and 37,800 passengers, ANA said.

Among them, in Miyagi prefecture, including a fire that occurred on 23 high-rise buildings such as Sendai and caused a fire in the turbine building of the Electric Power Ishinomaki, 32 fires along is that happening. In addition, 14 in Fukushima Prefecture, 12 in Iwate prefecture, in Ibaraki Prefecture 31, and two in Chiba Prefecture, and two in Tokyo, in addition to going fires 2 in Kawasaki City, Kanagawa, Tochigi and Akita fire has occurred in the prefecture Utsunomiya.
