The Japan Meteorological Agency put the earthquake at magnitude 7.3 and issued a tsunami warning for Fukushima Prefecture and urged immediate evacuations. It said tsunamis were expected to arrive "imminently" in the region.
Tsunami advisories were issued for a wide area of Japan's Pacific coast, including Miyagi and Iba prefectures.
Reports of damage from the quake weren't immediately available. But a 3-meter (10-foot) tsunami was expected at any moment, the national broadcaster NHK said on air report.
"Please evacuate right now," it said. "Don't stop. Don't try to go back."
The expected tsunami was expected to cause extra damage on top of any from the earthquake, the Japan weather agency said.
The U.S. Geological Survey revised its rating to magnitude 6.9. Both agencies said the quake was recorded at 6 a.m. Tuesday (4 p.m. ET Monday) at a depth of only 6.2 miles; shallow quakes generally cause more destruction because they're so close to the surface.
FWIW, the 2011 tsunami had waves of 10-24 feet high in major areas of Japan. The wave ran up 127 feet high on some mountains though.

Damn! I worked for a Japanese company in 2011 when the last one hit and it devastated our infrastructure and manufacturing processes. Gladly I no longer work there but I feel really bad for the people who live in that area.

says 6.9 on news outlets. I know that may be a significant difference.
Hope it's not as bad.
