We just had an earthquake in Broome! The whole house was shaking and it went for ages. Never experienced anything like it before - quite amazing! https://earthquakes.ga.gov.au/

Holy crap! Glad you're all safe Deb. A bit wild! You wouldn't expect it up in Broome. Stay safe and be wary of aftershocks.

Thanks mate :-) ... call me an adrenaline junkie, but I was more just excited than anything else. Might have been a different story if there was any damage at our place we built 3 yrs ago, but all good.

Wow!!!! We have had small ones in Adelaide. I remember once waking up and my bed was moving, but very short lived

Apparently it was the largest magnitude earthquake ever recorded in WA! But being offshore, thankfully no real damage compared to the 1968 Meckering earthquake. I can't find reports on how long it lasted and but it felt like maybe 30 seconds to me.
