I heard it was updated to a 9.1 a few days ago. I guess they must have changed it to a 9.0

Take a look at this article theres too many things to point out and none of them are good. the unit 4 fuel pool is completly empty leaving all fuel exposed with nothing to cool it. http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_thelookout/20110316/ts_yblog_thelookout/japans-nuclear-crisis-where-things-stand

They have managed to connect some power lines to several reactor buildings.
In the next few days they will try to get the pumps running to cool things down..

It is possible that radiation levels have risen considerably above the normal levels, though it's hard to believe anything the Japanese officials say.. It seems the efforts of the 'Fukushima 50' were in vain..

They stil havent gotten outside power connected to the plant as the lines run through the turbine room which has high levels of radiation preventing people from getting in there to work. Now they have radioactive water running all over the place and no where to put it. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/ap_on_bi_ge/as_japan_earthquake

Another fairly big Earthquake in the same area - this one was a  Magnitude 7.1

As far as I know no Tsunami warnings are in place thankfully...

That quake was centered a few miles west of the epicenter of the powerful 9.0 quake.

The aftershocks are very powerful and quite painful..
I feel sorry for people who live in that area who have to keep on moving homes
