3.3 at 2.25am this morning. Just a good jolt, but felt more than a 3.3.
That's 12 we have felt now in 3 1/2 years, 10 here & 2 in Auckland.

Bump.
Not being glib in any way about the earthquake and aftershocks that have hit Christchurch and surrounds this morning, but as this was a thread started to log the quakes we have felt here in NZ, I have bumped the thread to log this major one.
If you felt the quake you can log it here at Geonet

Logging the quake here:
7.1 magnitude centred on Darfield 40km west of Christchurch at 4.35am 4/9/10. Followed by numerous aftershocks all around/between 4 -5.5 magnitude
Bloody scary it was as well!

I am off to Welly next month
Glad to see you and most other folks are ok.
Looks like those building regs NZ have might have been followed after all.
Having seen the pics, cant believe no one was killed.

I lived in NZ for 23 years and never experienced an earthquake (Auckland). Having said that my mum (lives in NZ) emailed this to me today:
.They say this is not the big one which happens every 300 years. The last one was 300 years ago!

Re: Earthquake ! Log your rumbles here.
Missus felt the big one in the weekend and duly thought I should experience it too so gave me an elbow. Otherwise I would have happily slept through it.
Has made me check the emergency supplies are all in order. And also having second thoughts about daughter #1 sleeping right next to a massive chimney.
Hope you Canterbury folks are all OK and getting your lives back into order.

Another one here, 5.3 (getting bigger). That's 5 we've had since Tuesday morning. I know nothing like Christchurch, but it's the most we've seen in a small timeframe.
