We felt a tremor last night at about 00:30 in the Randburg Honeydew Ridge area, our roof rattled and it shaked for a few seconds until it sounded faint and went away, my husband woke up with the noise and I was about to fall asleep,is there anybody else that felt it?

ReplyDeleteTremor felt in boksburg. Huge tremor that lasted a few minutes and woke me up. No damage done but 2nf floor hotel room shook. One could hear and feel the shaking. Tremor happened around 1am (not sure) on 27 February 2013.
Peter,
ReplyDeleteHillbrow Johannesburg,27 Ferbuary 2013 at exactly 00.29am. I witnessed the earth tremor in my flat while sitting nursing my injured ankle. The building moved and I was so scared.This is my first time of noticing such tremor.
Why no reports in the local media , unless i missed them . I felt it in Benoni and i Knew it was more than 3 on Richter scale.
ReplyDeleteFelt and heard tremor just after 00:30 today 27 Feb. I was sitting at my desk working and suddenly I felt the ground below me moving and then a slight rumbling. Items on my Welsh Dresser were shaking and rattling. It lasted I would say btw 30 and 60 seconds. It certainly felt quite strong. Would have imagined it was stronger than just 3.4M. There were some car alarms that went off when the rumbling got intense. Bordeaux, Randburg. I also felt the tremor in 1969.
ReplyDeleteAnother serious one here at 10am! Northcliff, everyone else seems to have felt it from Randburg to Sandton.
