Cameras here were selected by searching the TubeTraveler directory inside a 150 km radius of the reported location, which returned 2 results with usable coordinates. The closest of them, Sendai Airport Live Camera in Sendai, is about 34 km away. Camera category was weighted as well: for earthquake the ranking favours port/airport and landmark views. Distance is measured from the coordinates the reporting agency published, so it describes proximity rather than line of sight.
What the cameras may show
These cameras may let you observe whether port or airport operations look routine or disrupted and conditions around a well-known landmark. What is visible changes with daylight, weather and where each camera happens to point.
What the cameras cannot confirm
What a camera view cannot tell you is the scale of any damage, injuries, casualties or the condition of anyone involved, whether an official evacuation or alert is in force, anything happening outside the camera’s field of view, and the intensity of shaking at any particular address. There is also no guarantee that the event itself is visible from any of these cameras — a stream may be pointing elsewhere, be delayed, or be showing an ordinary day in a place that is otherwise affected.
