So apparently there was a magnitude 2.4 earthquake in Pakenham at around 1:25am this morning.

Seriously?! It's crazy how many earthquakes we've had in the past couple of years eh?

True! I've lived in Melbourne most of my life and never felt an earthquake until 2012. Since then I've felt about 3 or 4.

Better to have many smaller ones verse the BIG one

Whoa really? Didn’t notice that one this time around.

We’ve really had a fair few number of them in a relatively short amount of time.
