That sounds unlikely. It's not a barge ffs.

[NTA]

@antipodean I'm assuming they either meant it was swamped or tectonic activity has displaced it.

[antipodean]

@nta swamped I'd believe; it's low lying.

[booboo]

@tim shit that's scary

We heard it here in Napier. It sounded like someone had dropped something really heavy upstairs. But we don’t have an upstairs.

@jc my cousin down in Invercargill said they heard it too.

I thought it was just thunder with that passing ex-cyclone.

[JC]

@taniwharugby Yeah it was very odd. It didn’t have by duration to speak of, just a loud thud that shook the house. I looked all around the house to see if something had fallen over, but nothing.

[Rapido]

I heard it in Wairarapa.
