Copied from the Australian Strong tremors, 5.2-magnitude, rock Victoria June 19, 2012 9:18PM MELBOURNE and parts of rural Victoria have been shaken by strong earth tremors tonight. Reports are coming in from all over the city - from the Dandenongs in the east, Bentleigh in the southeast, Pascoe Vale in the west and through the inner city. Windows were rattled and floors rocked as the tremor hit around 8.55pm tonight and lasted for around 30 to 40 seconds. The US Geological Survey is reporting an earthquake of 5.2 magnitude, with the epicentre 10km southwest of Moe in the state's southeast. The Geoscience Australia website crashed as people flocked online to find out what occurred. The Bureau of Meteorology said the quake was felt further afield than Melbourne, with reports coming in from Bright and Myrtleford in the northeast and Wonthaggi in the southeast of Victoria. The Joint Australian Tsunami Warning Centre said it had detected an earthquake that was reported as being felt near Moe. The centre said there was no tsunami alert but it would issue further upadates. Ron Smith from Kew said his whole house shook. "We heard a roar and thought it was the wind,'' he said. "The floor and the walls shook, the whole house shook.'' Jan Turnbull of East Bentleigh was in bed when the room started moving. "My lamps were shaking and the windows were rattling, it was quite strong,'' she said. Near the epicentre of the quake, Moe police constable Chris Hand was enjoying a cup of coffee when it hit. "I had the cup sitting on the table and it spilled over,'' Const Hand said. "We've had a lot of calls but no one is reporting any damage or injuries at this stage. "It was a decent-size rumble, the biggest I've ever felt. The ground moved for 15 to 20 seconds.'' AAP
