Japan Suffers Another Earthquake and Fears Escalate

Japan suffers another 7.4 magnitude earthquake on April 7 with potential tsunami.

As if Japan has not suffered enough already, another 7.4 magnitude earthquake hit today with warnings of a possible tsunami. This earthquake is centered around the same general area as the first earthquake that has killed more than 25,000 people and devastated a country.

Officials do not believe that this latest earthquake has caused further damage to nuclear plants, but only time will tell.

Richmond is many thousands of miles from Japan, but as moms and grandmoms, our hearts go out to the people in Japan and their families. A USA Today article on March 22, 2011 provides tips and links for those who want to helpl victims of Japan.

As we go about our daily lives, let’s remember those who are living in turmoil as their families and children are at risk of disaster. And don’t forget to give thanks for the blessings of living in Richmond where we typically do not experience such hazardous weather and environmental conditions.
