日本气象厅在12月8日青森县近海发生里氏7.5级地震一周后，首次发布巨震警报，随后已解除北海道及三陆海岸地区的警报。官员强调风险依然存在，并敦促持续保持警惕，包括检查疏散路线和固定家具。
该警报覆盖北海道至千叶县的182个市町村，警告千岛海沟及日本海沟沿岸可能发生烈度下6强以上震动和超过3米海啸，于周一结束。
周二内阁府简报会上，该机构强调解除警报并不意味着突然发生大地震的可能性消失。它呼吁持续采取准备措施，例如确认疏散场所和路线，以及固定家居家具。
正如此前关于警报发布的报道所述，该系统——2011年东日本大地震后于2022年引入——在高风险区域发生重大地震后启动，以提升公众准备状态，因为当时8级以上地震概率暂时从约0.1%升至1%。地震多发国日本尽管预测面临挑战，仍继续完善此类警报。
