On 12/12/2014, Japan Meteorological Agency raised the volcanic alert level of a mountain located 82km from Fukushima plant.
The volcano is called “Azumayama”, located between Fukushima prefecture and Yamagata prefecture.
They increased the alert level from Level 1 (Normal) to Level 2 (Do not approach the crater).
In the end of September, “Ontakesan-mountain” erupted. (cf, Volcano erupted in the central Japan / Over 10 people cardiopulmonary arrest, still 43 missing [URL])
Japan Meteorological Agency has been reinforcing the monitoring system since then.

The post Japan Meteorological Agency raised volcanic alert level 80km from Fukushima plant / “Don’t approach the crater” appeared first on Fukushima Diary.
The ramifications of an awakening super volcano just eighty short miles from Fukushima sends more than just one chill up my spine.
