Pro Tip
How to respond to an earthquake early warning
When you hear an earthquake early warning (緊急地震速報), immediately drop, cover, and hold on. Move away from windows or heavy objects that could fall. If you're indoors, stay inside; if outdoors, move to an open area away from buildings.
Gold Rule
Trust the system but verify
While the earthquake early warning system is highly reliable, always use common sense. If you feel shaking before the warning, take protective action immediately. Do not rely solely on the warning system in areas with frequent aftershocks.
Word Origin
Composed of three Japanese terms: 緊急 (kin-kyū, 'urgent'), 地震 (jishin, 'earthquake'), and 速報 (sokuhō, 'rapid report/early warning'). The term reflects the system's purpose of providing urgent alerts about impending earthquakes.
Usage Notes
This term is specific to Japan's earthquake early warning system developed by the Japan Meteorological Agency. It is distinct from general earthquake alerts or tsunami warnings. The system is designed to give people time to take protective actions before the shaking starts.
