A: Hey there! Guess what happened? There's been another earthquake off the coast of Aomori Prefecture, and now it's raining and snowing in some affected areas!

B: No way, really?! I didn't hear about that. What's going on?

A: Well, the weather authorities say a front and low pressure system are causing rain and snow to fall in those places hit by the quake. They're advising caution because the quake has loosened some soil. It looks like there could be heavy snow tonight and Friday.

B: That sounds serious! I hope everyone stays safe. Did you hear they issued an advisory for a possible mega quake?

A: Yeah, it covers several prefectures including Hokkaido, Aomori, Iwate, Miyagi, Fukushima, Ibaraki, and Chiba. They're not saying a quake is certain to happen, but they want people to prepare emergency bags just in case.

B: That makes sense. By the way, have you heard about foreign residents being advised too?

A: Yeah! Foreign residents in Ibaraki are being urged to stay vigilant and prepare for a possible mega quake. They're suggesting things like hiding under desks during a quake, moving to evacuation shelters if needed, stockpiling food and water, and securing home furniture.

B: Wow, it seems like everyone needs to be extra careful these days. Let's hope the authorities' warnings help keep people safe!
