We here in The Adelaide area of South Australia had an Earth Tremor last night. To many around ther world ours was really small 3.3 but seeing we don't often have tremors it did frighten a lot of people. No damage that I have heard of.

173695Hi Lyn, heard about the tremor in Adelaide and Port Augusta this morning, glad to hear you are OK. It is frightening I know, we had one here in Innisfail earlier in the year. To me it sounded like a truck rumbling down the street, I actually looked out to see this "truck", but there was nothing there, then quite quickly, it was on the internet news headlines, so then we knew!

This one scared me more than the others I have felt here. Jokes are already going around re Adelaide Earthquake.
255054Glad you're ok! We have light quakes here in E. Tenn., but not big ones, thankfully.

I have felt only 3 in the past 25 years but the one before this one was last year. Hope that is not going to be the norm
35675Heard here in Newcastle too about Adelaide's earthquake and as I'm a South Aussie too was quite interested. Love and blessings Chris

615The first time it's frightening, I agree! Here in Melbourne, Victoria, we have just a few light tremors every now and then, but not frightening, I'm used to them. Of course, every time it occurs, you hope for the best!

My Machine was safetly on the floor. I was more concerned with all of my collector plates hanging on the wall
16529It can be very scary. East coast had one just a few months ago which is not normal. It was a strange feeling and a bit scary. That was my first experience with one.

62461I am having a few problems with one support to my roof. Had that part of my roof replaced last year. When I first heard the tremor I thought the roof was coming down. Thankful it was a tremor and not my roof.

I can understand that would have made you quite nervous, until you worked out what it was.
29801There have been a few recently, hasn't there?? I really wonder what is up with all of the earthquakes. I track them because I'm interested. Seems that places that have no history of earthquakes seem to be becoming seismically active. Of all of the natural occurrences, earthquakes upset me the most. They hit with no warning and are very disturbing. We get a lot of earthquakes where I live, unfortunately.

My dog was on the bed - she didn't hear a thing. Even though she is deaf she should have felt it, but probably thought it was just mum having a funny moment.
