Mark Edward Harris on Instagram: "At 4:10pm on New Year’s Day 2024, a magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck of the coast of western Japan. The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) officially named it the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake. It led to the country’s first major tsunami warning since the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. With a small group of friends and colleagues I traveled the entire coastline of the peninsula by bike and car on a project in 2018. I had also been there a decade or so earlier for my book on Japanese hot springs. So sad to see what’s happened in this magnificent area of a magnificent country. #Noto #earthquake #tsunami #Japan #wajima #disaster" » 141 likes, 7 comments - markedwardharrisphoto on January 5, 2024: "At 4:10pm on New Year’s Day 2024, a magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck of the coast of western Jap…" Instagram.com
