[News] Earthquake

[Mackenzie]

We‘ve just had a little earthquake, big bang then the house shook. Thought a tree had come down or something.

Apparently 4.2 magnitude about 15 miles away from my house in Crickhowell (South Wales).

Anyone else near me feel it?

No wonder we felt it, it was literally right below us. No damage (as far as I can see) just a bit odd.

Downgraded from 3.8 to a 3.7 - very minor but shallow so felt across a wide area
