Hello all, The situation is still quite bad in north eastern area of Honshu island where Sendai resides. In Tokyo, we still have frequent aftershocks, but it's getting back to normal gradually. As of connectivity from Japan to overseas, IIJ is seeing several international circuits going down. Several cables, not only trans pacific but also intra Asian, seems to be affected by the earthquake offshore of Japan. You may encounter some congestion not only to Japan but also to Asia.

Subway & bus lines are still down. Fire at the nuke plant has been put out, no radiation detected, but they still evacuated a couple thousand residents because the backup generator failed & the water pump is not pumping. The Japanese gov't has sent troops into some areas, asked Washington to let the US service men in .jp (about 50K) help. I don't know if D.C. has agreed, but I can't imagine Obama would say no. A few hundred bodies have been found so far. It is very bad. But it could have been worse, the Japanese are very well prepared (building codes, emergency procedures, etc.). -- TTFN, patrick

I hear that there is now rising radiation levels outside the plant and US is flying in some dampers in hopes to resolve the situation. Owen

Are we aware of how much the infrastructure has been damaged yet? Are aftershocks still going?
Subway & bus lines are still down. Fire at the nuke plant has been put out, no radiation detected, but they still evacuated a couple thousand residents because the backup generator failed & the water pump is not pumping.
I hear that there is now rising radiation levels outside the plant and US is flying in some dampers in hopes to resolve the situation.
Here is what the IAEA has to say about the situation http://www.iaea.org/press/?p=1133 Japanese officials have also reported that pressure is increasing inside the Unit 1 reactor’s containment, and the officials have decided to vent the containment to lower the pressure. The controlled release will be filtered to retain radiation within the containment. TEPCO has a lot more detail http://www.tepco.co.jp/en/press/corp-com/release/11031203-e.html http://www.tepco.co.jp/en/press/corp-com/release/11031209-e.html Regards Marshall
