Where does the “very high” come from?
Higher than before isn’t very high. Don’t misinform.
There is zero chance anyone can predict an earthquake. The way the J Met does it is say ‘well X years ago to this day we had a big one so we’d better warn everyone’
Nonsense
The report was that the risk is higher than it was before this earthquake and will remain higher for a time.
There is not a “very high” risk of such an earthquake.
I saw the news and the guy said something like; the possibility is higher than before but doesn’t mean an earthquake will come, just in case people should be prepared , emergency kit in this week and future :/
Also something that if anything occurs it can be in any area (nankai) and deep.
If you have a bunch of knives hanging by strings above your bed, and you keep thinking about taking them down but you are procrastinating, now would be a good time to do that.
Using the word imminent is irresponsible fear mongering misinformation. There is no claim that an earthquake is imminent, nor should anyone take it seriously if anyone does make that claim, because we can’t predict Earthquakes.
Why are the comments full of people who apparently know more than the meteorologists
