Cretan earthquakes
« on: August 08, 2014, 04:18:34 PM »
Anyone in Plakias sense the earthquake at 08.20 this morning ? - a 4.7 just off Lendas/Matala that has been registered on the surveys.

There was a large earthquake off the coast of the Peloponnese this morning (5.7M, with an aftershock a few moments later).  Luckily no reports of damage, but we felt it here in Plakias, as did others.  The bed shook for several seconds, and was probably enough to have woken me, even if I wasn't already awake. Just as well the epicentre was in the sea.

The Plakias wind is back today as well, but obviously not related.
