LOCATION

This station and its surroundings

JISHINDESU links this station to Fukuchi Town in Fukuoka. Explore the locality or prefecture history to see readings from other associated stations, too.

One station's Shindo reading does not describe shaking across a whole municipality or prefecture. Area pages combine records from stations associated with that area.

How to read these observations

Shindo describes shaking at the measurement point. Magnitude describes the size of the whole earthquake. Nearby stations can record different Shindo values for the same event, and a station reading is not an exact measurement at your home.

We display observations stored by JISHINDESU from JMA and P2PQuake reports. The history may be incomplete and reports may be revised. Maximum Shindo here refers to available records, not the station’s entire history.
