TOKYO (AP) — Japan's northeastern coast has been rattled by a strong aftershock. The Japan meteorological agency has issued a tsunami warning for a wave of up to one meter. The warning was issued for a coastal area already ravaged by last month's tsunami.
Officials say the quake was a 7.4-magnitude and hit
25 miles (40 kilometers) under the water and off the coast of Miyagi
prefecture. The quake that preceded last month's tsunami was a 9.0-magnitude.
Buildings as far away as Tokyo shook for about a
minute.
