일본에 쓰나미가 나타났다

Overview of the Situation

The Japan Meteorological Agency has issued a tsunami warning following a massive volcanic eruption in Tonga. The tsunami, which struck Japan on the night of January 15-16, has caused significant concern across the region.

Affected Areas and Warnings

Region Tsunami Height Status
Amami and Tokara Islands 1.2m Warning Issued
Kochi and Wakayama Below 1m Advisory

Safety Measures

  1. Evacuate immediately to higher ground if you are in a coastal area.
  2. Avoid beaches and river mouths until the warning is lifted.
  3. Stay tuned to NHK for live updates and emergency broadcasts.

Expert Predictions

Professor Shane Cronin from the University of Auckland warns that the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcano may continue to be active for weeks or even months. Further eruptions of similar magnitude are possible.

Global Impact

Several countries, including the United States, New Zealand, and Canada, have also issued tsunami warnings. The National Tsunami Warning Center in Alaska has recorded unusually high waves in Hawaii, but no significant damage has been reported.
