Earthquake Hitting Cyprus

Post by Dominic »

We've had three big tremors so far, over a period of a few minutes. Reports say between 4.6 and 5.5 on Richter Scale.

Hope everybody is safe.

up to now I have felt 5 earth quakes in Choulou.
From the numbers I have seen it looks to be in the Pantalia area

There have just been two more strong ones in Polemi and I would guess around the 5 mark again, plus some smaller ones

Anyone who is concerned should pack a suitcase so that they can grab it on the way out the front door in an emergency. That way, when you are worried, you can say to yourself "well at least I have my suitcase packed". Let's face it, there is nothing else you can do!

Felt another short tremor at 11:30am, Thursday. Was sat on a dining room chair and this time it was like a very short rocking motion.
