I thought the 7.1 was a few months ago and the one today was 6.3.
And what the hell is going on Oceania??? Talk about the Angry Earth! Didn't Christchurch itself get hit with a large magnitude quake less than a year ago?
We just heard from family members in Christchurch. They were unable to message us (unsure why at the moment), but they asked friends to email us with details.
Everyone in our family is physically fine, but that’s all we know so far.
Prayers for everyone involved.
