Earthquake 20 January 2014

Earthquake occurred while we were having dinner.  I checked that morning to see if any larger earthquakes had occurred.  Even though the magnitude was greater than the earthquakes in August because of the depth (33 km) it wasn't considered severe.  The quake was rather extended rather than quick and sharp like the ones in August.  There have been numerous after shocks of 4.0 and greater.  There was damage up around Masterton and the surrounding area but no severe damage reported in Wellington.  We will see if any of the prepared probates/wills have fallen to the floor like they did in August.
