Really shook our place. I was awake reading when it hit and the wife jumped out of bed. We stood under the doorway till it faded away.

yeah, it was the largest in our area since 1995 when it was 5,7 Richter. It was in the same spot just outside Akamas. This time however relatively deep with ca 55 km.

I am dressed and waiting what will happen the next hours. Sure we will get some aftershocks...
