    I doubt it will be anything significant.
    There are no major fault lines or plate joins in Australia.

    There is nothing on news.com either.
    Could just be a publicity stunt by ACA.

    I swear thats the 3rd one this year, could hear it rolling in from a distance before it hit. Nothing major just tremors like usual.

    I'm in Endeavour Hills.
