Yep, felt in North Sunshine (me) and in Mt Evelyn by my sister. Think it was stronger for her as she had things fall over.

Yes biggest and longest one we've had here, wonder if it was centred on Korumburra again?

Weak by Christchurch standards, but that's the strongest I've ever felt in Melbourne.

It was pretty decent in Box Hill - I was getting a right royal shaking on the couch. Whole house shook for about 20 secs.

Geoscience page is offline due to traffic :D

Is there a website for finding where and how strong it was?

Which of the 10,000+ tremors/quakes in Christchurch? Hopefully it will be the one and only for us.

Damn, we never get these up here.

Not saying it's a good thing, but it'd be an interesting experience.

However it is not accessible at this time as I assume it has been crashed with the number of hits.

I've got heaps of Bendigo friends who felt it.

Nothing for us, but a couple of km's either side nieghbours are going off about it. Friends in Shepp, Benalla, and all over Vic reporting it.

Felt at Kilmore as well Meso. Maybe you were too involved with The Big Bang Theory? Definitely the strongest I've experienced.
