Nothin in Lara, but we're on stumps which might have nullified it a bit? If I had felt anything I might have assumed it was the planes from Avalon over the road (air show soon) but nup, not a peep.

St Albans my missus felt it.
I was at Highpoint... didn't feel it. Maybe it was my stomach craving the KFC that was more important...

I felt it here in Glen Waverley for a couple of seconds. Just heard Quarterbrain on the footy say the epicentre was in Korumburra and 4.6 on the richter.

Felt it in Drysdale!On the Bellarine peninsula near Geelong. I was moving forward and back, a cupboard opened and closed, and a toy cranes hook was swinging! Wasnt sure until I saw the cranes hook swinging!
Then the airshow usually has big explosions when they do that wall of fire thing, so thought maybe its that! Obviously not :-) |

Wonder if it was the coal moving? That whole area is laden with a coal bed.
It extends from the latrobe valley down to the coast and partly out to sea. |
