# 5446
The strongest aftershock since Wednesday struck northern Japan a short while ago (8:36 pm local time).
Local reports have listed the quake as a 6.2, but the USGS is currently showing it as a 6.4. Magnitude readings are often changed as more data comes in.
While strong enough that buildings in Tokyo (nearly 400km to the south) reportedly swayed - no tsunami warning has been issued.
