Melbourne, Did the earth move for you, 5Jul

Slight earth tremor in Melbourne, felt in outer east 1134am. No great shakes just a 30s long tremor.

As GA says on the page Jeff found:

West of Korumburra, Victoria. Mag 4.4

They'd like more shake reports, so get to it guys and gals.

Quite literally right on top of it.
The epicentre is smack under our friend's property - same fault as the last two. They were showing us the seismograph that had been installed.
No sooner had he finished saying "Of course, now it's in, we won't get another.......
Classic.
No worse than the cows stampedeing tho'
