Back in Sept. 28, 2011, Hachinohe was previously struck with a 5.2-magnitude earthquake off the eastern coast of Japan's Honshu Island, and had almost the same epicentre as last Saturday's earthquake.

Furthermore, RT News reports that the world's biggest super-typhoon in 2014, Typhoon Vongfong hit Okinawa-leading to a massive blackout of over 17,000 homes.

Vongfong was reported to have caused 28 injuries in both Okinawa and Kyushu, while 150,000 people were alerted to evacuate as a precaution for mudslides and strong winds that have crippled Japan's power lines and train services.

Super typhoon Vongfong was predicted to move north towards Honshu Island and next week on Tuesdaym it could reach the country's capital Tokyo causing heavy rain and strong winds with speed of 230 kilometers per hour and creating waves of over 15 meters high.
