Sydney's story is making news on March 11th, a moderate 4.4 magnitude earthquake struck near Boerua in southern New South Wales just after 7 pm. The epicenter sat about 11 kilometers underground northwest of Canberra, thousands spent the tremor across the region. More than 5,900 people were ported to shake through geoscience Australia, a reach from central New South Wales to spots like Sydney, Wollingong, and the Australian capital territory. Those describe a quick joke, like a truck hitting a building, but it lasted only seconds. Nothing fell off shelves, and folks in Boerua said they are somewhat used to smallest shakes in the area. Experts note the region around Boerua sees frequent small quakes, though this one stood out. The chief scientist says it likely spread over 100 kilometers or more under the right conditions. So far, police in the Hume District report, no damage, or calls for help. Someone seems to be okay after this brief event. This episode is supported by our sponsor.
