The administrators of Japan’s Noto Peninsula and Ishikawa Prefecture gave an update to the 7.6 magnitude Richter scale (7 Japan Meteorological Agency [JMA] scale) earthquake on 01JAN2024: The fire that resulted from that quake destroyed at least 2-hundred structures.
As many as 323 people are still missing, at least 168 people confirmed dead.
Aftershocks continue, including a 6-JMA magnitude quake in the town of Shika. However, the JMA continues to doubt the accuracy of their seismographs due to so many quakes happening over a widespread area, they suspect many shockwaves are interfering with, or possibly amplifying, results on seismographs.
More than 1-thousand-5-hundred houses collapsed/damaged.
The weight of heavy snow could cause more buildings to collapse.
More than 29-thousand people now in evacuation centers.
Many local municipalities have already exhausted their stockpiles of disaster relief items, typically these items are only enough for three days of relief.
At least one evacuation center is reporting a CoViD-19 outbreak. Other diseases are also being reported at all evacuation centers: “Sanitary conditions at shelters are seriously deteriorating. The number of people infected with COVID-19 and influenza is increasing.”-Shigeru Sakaguchi, Mayor of Wajima City
Noto Airport closed due to damaged runways, administrators hope to have the runways repaired by 25JAN2024.
The 01JAN2024 quake created 2-hundred meters of new coastline.
