Aotearoa Dodges a Bullet

Massive earthquake in Fiordland last night- 7.8 on the Richter Scale. Talk about lucky, it couldn't have been in a 'safer place' under Resolution Island miles from civilisation, and while we did send an attempt at a tsunami at Aussie it was only a baby one.

The real tsunami will hopefully be the All Black Tide on Saturday night.

So yea, it could be argued we just had the big one. Or will it start a chain reaction up the Alpine Fault like the Boxing Day megaquake did in Indonesia 4 years ago? Hope not!
