Sorry I missed it. Could you run it again?
Twitter is all abuzz! NZ's a trending topic.
Quake location: 45.75°S, 166.58°E (put that into Google maps), look out Hobart!
Apparently the Tsunami was a no-show.

Yep Tsunami warnings are off. I was at work and didn't even feel it. I didn't hear about it til over an hour later from my girlfriend who was in the shower at the time.

Apparently it was felt pretty strongly at my house though.

We never get earthquakes in Auckland just mini tornados and the
occasional landslide. We are overdue for volcanic activity though.

So it seems the seismographs were not reporting correctly last night, 7.8 according to USGS, which is I guess the reading they are going from now with all the latest reports? Second equal biggest in NZ since colonisation began!

I'd be a bit worried about a discrepancy of 6.7 vs 7.8 on the recording equipment. 7.8 is more than 30x greater than 6.7 on the Richter Scale, which makes the Boxing Day 2004 quake of 9.2 truly scary.
