Well, South Gippsland's certainly been rocking and rolling lately!
A 4.8 magnitude earthquake followed by a few aftershocks has left us all a little shook up! 🕺
Earthquakes happen when built-up pressure in the Earth's crust is suddenly released. Aftershocks are a normal part of this process and generally become smaller and less frequent over time.
There's no guarantee we won't feel another rumble, but there's no need to panic!
Has everyone felt these rumbles? Or have you slept through?
Stay safe, South Gippsland!
