Are you near water?
"If it long and strong, get gone" is the thing they say round these parts

People in Canberra felt that one apparnetly.
5.6 according to one source @Hooroo
Depending on depth, not that strong then. Just nervy
Was just on a video meeting with one of our contractors who lives on the ground floor of a block of apartments in Melbourne. He was typically chill about it all.

fuck the tradie protestor blokes have been in to the pies too hard from the sound of it

i bet there are a couple of tradies happy they're not on top of a skyscrapper still under construction

Felt it here in Sydney.
Sitting at home (where else would I be given we are in our 13th week of lockdown
), our 3rd floor apartment in Lane Cove and at first I thought I was experiencing some sort of vertigo as I felt my feet "moving" under me as I was sitting at my desk gaming... uhm, I mean "working".And then my wife came in a few minutes later having seen the earthquake reported on the news and I was like, of course!
A couple of car alarms went off at that time too.
Last earthquake I experienced was the "Newcastle Quake" back in '89, not long after settling here in Australia. That was a much cooler experience as the building I was working in swayed and moved.

I guess that living in Wellington is well out of the question then.

Felt nothing out here in the Hills.
Bloody Eastern Suburbs elites, even keeping the quakes to yourself!
