Good shake here in Wellington. CBD is closed for inspection and tsunami warnings so we've been told to work from home. No pants Monday!

Finally get to sleep around 3am (in Wellington) then wake a few hours later to 35 reported quakes in Geonet. Aroha to all.

3 minutes of everything swaying like we're on a boat is a bit much tbh, but no damage being immediately apparent is nice.

3 minutes of constant earthquake? Shieeet, all I ever felt was 5-10 sec top.

Homeowners, check your foundation for cracks. This happened all over when we had that oddball earthquake in VA USA.

Most Kiwi houses are built with earthquakes in mind. The entire country is on a fault line. Still, couldn't hurt to be vigilant.

You guys gotta lay of those hakas.
