NZ Earthquake, Everyone Okay?

[Tony]

Just heard on the news that there was a "Monster Earthquake" in NZ. Westy, you are the main person down there, how are you guys? Maybe you can blame the hole in the house on the quake lol. Let us know how you guys are doing down there!

Hope all are ok, Tony, Westy is quite a bit north of that, but still hope all are ok

I didn't see exactly where it was located, just heard they had one.

Seems it was just south of Wellington

Here is some info on the NZ Earthquake...

Here is an article from the USA Today News:

Earthquakes rock New Zealand

Sounds like it was a pretty big quake.

I know that we have several members from New Zealand and I'm not sure where they are all from. I do know that Westy is near Tokoroa, New Zealand. Tokoroa is miles and miles from where the quake seemed to have centered in Wellington. Here is a picture from Google Earth:



Here is a picture of the same area, just zoomed out a bit.



I put "thumb tacks" where Wellington and Tokoroa are located.

I hope everyone is ok!!!

Hey guys, thanks for the well wishes.
I know me and my family are all ok, but we are at the top end of the island.
As far as I know there has been no fatalities, let's hope it stays that way.

That's good news, Stambo! Glad to hear it!!!
