|
For those of you who rallied last time in September when Christchurch got hit with a 7.1 magnitude earthquake the shit has hit the fan again with a 6.2 quake at about 1.00pm. There is loss of life and serious injury.
Elvis may be able to give more details but from my work sources its worse because of the shallow depth and the time of day a lot of people outr and about and lunchtime for a lot of people.
Spare a thought for us southern latitudes, Aussie and floods, New Zealand and earthquakes !!!!

The only footage I could find on it. IS HERE Another film got taken off for infringement of copy rights...Looks very bad indeed and I hope the NZ Nuts are holding their own and able to function. That's going to take quite a while to get over and get through...sorry....I'll be sending prayers

My thoughts are for those affected by this latest quake.
NZ & Oz have had it hard lately & I hope there is no more to come.
