Question

Hey New Zealand. How's it shakin'?

Answer 1

Last night it was shakin' alright - we had ourselves an earthquake. Today its shakin' up nicely here. Bloody hot where I am. Its nice though. Might be able to get outside for Christmas

Answer 2

Sorry, this is the US site.  Go to the bottom of your page (Yahoo International) and click on New Zealand.  They may be able to answer from there.

Answer 3

I missed it! I live in Marlborough, where they said it was felt quite well and I missed it!!!!

I did experience one in Otago in 2003 that was a 7.1, but I was a hundred or so km from it!!! AND the one in Canterbury 6.7 in 1994...that was a good shake! I saw trees swaying and felt the ground going up and down under my feet!

Answer 4

Seems they have a bit of clean up to do.... some building damage but no one was hurt.

.... all normal for the geologically active country NZ !

Answer 5

Lol it's all good down here =]

A bit cold though.

Answer 6

It's shaking only a little. We woke up thinking the cat had finally succeeded in nudging that ugly bust off the mantlepiece, but it was just a short tremble. They do make weird noises though, those quakes...
