Big Quakes in the Temple Of Boom
Crazy shit down here at the moment. Got woken up by a 4.6 this morning, and early evening we get hit with a 6.5+
Constant aftershocks all in the high 3’s and 4’s …

Where abouts in NZ is The Temple of Boom located Jes?
Were you far from the epicentre? Much damage?
Best wishes to you Jester, hope all ok with you. Got family who were caught up in the Christchurch one a couple of years ago. Not good

All good mate. Bro is living out at his missus’ folks farm atm, and 1 beer per point on the richter scale seems to normalise things

Wow, 5 cm east. That’s quite a bit for a single *cluster of quakes isn’t it?
