That was insane. On the phone to my boss when it hit. Felt here in the Dandenongs about 1 second before it reached Brighton. I'm like I think we are having an earthquake
Lasted close to 20 seconds here. Kept expecting it to stop, and it didn't...
Reports of damaging coming in. Shallow so could be quite a lot
Would not want it to have been any stronger. Whole house was moving and the steel frame creeking.
It woke me up from my lockdown sleep in here in East Warburton and felt pretty strong here, no damage done, but wow this steel frame house really shook.
Further up the road.
All miners in the gold mine at Woods Point have been reported to be safe and are now back on the surface as a precaution.
Also someone has said the people at the A1 mine at Gaffney's Creek are safe, which is really close to the epicentre.
I was actually about to leave the house for a dental appointment when it struck here in Burnside Heights. 15 minutes later in the dental chair would have been interesting.
Our house is on a slab so it felt like being in a boat on rough seas, even the pendant lights were swinging.
Caroline Springs, Melbourne's meteorological boredom zone.
Yep it was a ripper, lasted a good 45 secs or so here. Was a slow build up into some larger shakes before slowly tapering back down. Enough to get our older house creaking and rocking to make us run outside.
The 2012 5.2M earthquake in Moe felt stronger IMO (was living in Traralgon at the time), purely because I was closer to epicentre. Must have been a decent shake up in Licola and Mansfield!
Not too many rooms don’t have cracked plaster here,
So I wasn’t imagining the amount the house was moving,
Prior to making my world record sprint outside..
Still aftershocks happening.
Murraville has been a bit active.
The entire globe is Shaking a fair bit at present..
Day 28 of the La Palma Volcano. Love the live stream viewing..
although it’s seems a little more settled recently, there had been some great viewing on big screen..
the size of boulders being ejected into the air and massive rocks in the lava flows..
