Erin 15

Hi Everyone
There was an earthquake in N.S.W near Seals Rocks which measured 3.4 on the Richter scale which means Slight on the Mercalli scale. It was about 3.25am this morning.
There was another earthquake in Chile this morning which measured 6.9 on the Richter scale then 16 minutes later 6.7 then 27 minutes later the last one struck 6.0. The time these earthquakes happened was 11;39am Chilean time on thursday. I could not find any pictures yet.
