They also had a 5.2 & 5.4 mag earlier in the day. Interesting info here:

Wow. That's not good. Let's hope the Indonesia people are treated gently by mother nature. They're good natured people and very polite as a rule.

Bit of a shake....luckily there was no tsunami...warning was canceled for the Indian Ocean.

I saw it live in a video conference. needless to say the meeting ended earlier than expected. Everyone was ok, but it took a long time to get down all the stairs and out of the building.
