M6.1 hit western Japan / JMA “Connection with a potential great earthquake is not known”

(Before It's News)

According to JMA (Japan Meteorological Agency), M6.1 occurred offshore Mie prefecture at 11:39 of 4/1/2016 (JST).

It affected the large area of mid-western Japan. The maximum seismic intensity was 4.

JMA states it happened in the possible epicenter area of the anticipated megathrust earthquake, “Nankai megathrust earthquake”. (cf, 6 intense quakes hit Hyuga-Nada within 5 hours / The western end of Nankai Trough [URL])

The epicenter of this M6.1 was where the seismic activity is relatively low usually. Significant aftershock wasn’t observed.

JMA commented the connection with the potential megathrust earthquake is not clear, but it is important to keep watching the increasing symptoms.
