It's been 15 years since I was in my office building in Tokyo for that earthquake, resulting in my consulting work shutting down due to lack of power grid capacity, so I returned to the US.

Japanese friends called within 12 hrs of the main earthquake, panicked, as they weren't getting info about Fukushima (including Steve's reporting), but lived in Nasu, about 10 miles away from Fukushima. I advised they evacuate and they also moved to the US with their young daughter.

A good source of info is https://www.fairewinds.org/fukushima-related-content though i don't think they are still actively reporting on Fukushima, even though the cleanup is FAR from complete.

fifteen years since the 3/11 earthquake struck, since I sheltered under a desk at my then workplace in Tokyo and watched the corners of the room rock open and closed like mouths, since the tsunami washed so many poor souls in Tohoku away, since the Fukushima meltdown that changed everything and nothing.
