# 5482
Although data is still coming in, and the final magnitude may be adjusted, the JMA (Japan’s Meteorological Agency) is showing their latest aftershock as a 7.1 and have issued localized tsunami warnings and advisories.
NO PACIFIC WIDE TSUNAMI WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED (see PTWC statement)
The USGS currently shows the magnitude of this quake considerably lower than does the JMA.
By either measure this is the strongest aftershock since last Thursday (see 7.4 Mag Aftershock Hits Japan). Since the March 11th 9.0 earthquake more than 70 6.0+ aftershocks have been recorded.
Thus far, we’ve seen no reports of new damage from this latest quake.
Media reports indicate these warnings may already have been lifted, but as of this posting they still appear on the JMA site.
