An earthquake of 7.4 magnitude has just struck Sendai, about an hour ago. Areas have been shaking constantly since the deadly one almost four weeks ago, but I think this is just about the strongest one since. Even Tokyo felt some tremous from it. Villages near the epicentre in Sendai have essentially been destructed again, and there are currently fires all around and no electricity. A tsunami warning has been issued for the North-Eastern regions.
Doesn't sound too terrible so far, but it's just another reminder that the events are not only of the past - it is still very much the present.
