I don’t have live data access right now. I can summarize typical steps to check a current tsunami alert for Japan and where to look for authoritative updates.
- Check official sources immediately after a quake: Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) tsunami advisories and warnings are the primary source for current alerts and expected waves.
- Major international outlets often mirror the latest from JMA, plus local police and disaster agencies. Look for live updates on trusted outlets like BBC, Reuters, or NHK.
- If you’re in Prague, monitor your local translation of alerts (if any) and follow guidance from authorities to stay safe and prepared if travel plans could be affected.
What I can provide right now
- Quick guidance on how to interpret typical alerts: a tsunami warning means a higher level of risk and stronger evacuation recommendations; an advisory indicates potential danger and to stay alert; warnings can be downgraded or lifted as conditions clarify.
- General steps for safety if you’re in or near coastal Japan: move to higher ground, follow evacuation routes, keep a battery-powered radio or phone with alerts, and avoid beaches until authorities declare it safe.
If you’d like, I can monitor and summarize updates from reputable sources as soon as you specify you want me to track this.
