I felt the earth move under my feet.
Probably quite small in world terms but these things don't normally happen here - Australia is very geologically inactive.

Nothing to worry about. Michael Moore fell is all that happened.

They may look close together on a world map but New Zealand and Australia are 2,500 miles apart.
New Zealand is on the ring of fire. Australia is in the middle of a continental plate.

I saw a video of a weatherman down there making his forecast and radar had picked up something off shore. There was no clouds or anything and he determined that is was aircraft dropping chaff. If that was chaff, it was a hell of a big area.
What the hell is going on down there?
BTW..we are watching you guys starting to exercise your god given right to natural freedom. Give em hell!

North America is a continental plate and although, Missouri is in the middle, what was most likely the biggest earthquake ever happened there.
You just keep an eye out. Stay well and I believe your in more danger from your government and how they are acting towards you than mother nature.

Thanks - and yes, they can happen anywhere. Fault lines just make them more common.

I thought New Zealand was where the earthquakes (and the rotten egg smell of Rotorua) were.

Yeah, normally - they are very geologically active. We’re not. Normally.

Hopefully it’s the Taiwanese/Japanese/Australians testing underground nukes.

Quite seriously, large COVID related protests are expected in Melbourne today - itβs only about 9.30 am here. Not sure if this will impact any of that.I thought protests were illegal? πππππ€

Hope everyone’s ok. I visited Melbourne many years ago, loved the city and the people there.
