More problems in one of the areas hit by last night's huge earthquake in Japan.
It has caused landslides and avalanches.
News agencies report authorities are still having trouble reaching the areas affected by the quake so it is still difficult to get a true estimate of the extent of damage or the death toll.
The toll officially remains in the hundreds but some are expecting it to reach well into the thousands, judging by the damage seen in TV footage just after the quake stuck.
Infrastructure damage is reported in Tokyo with power off to millions of buildings.
There is concern now about a nuclear reactor damaged in the quake. Back up systems failed and people around the plant have been evacuated.
