# 5368
Tsunami waves of up to 4 meters reportedly struck the coast shortly after the (now upgraded) 8.9 quake off the coast of Honshu. Farms and houses are reportedly washed away by the incoming waves, and more than an hour after the quake fresh waves continue to come in.
Quake damage reports are just beginning to come in, but at this point they look to be significant.

In the hour or so since the major quake, several very strong aftershocks have been reported.
