Earthquake !!

Time: 11:40:44 PM (local time)
Latitude: -6.16
Longitude: 130.35
Magnitude: 7.3
Depth:
138.5Km
Region: Banda Sea (about 700Km ENE or NE of Timor Leste)

East Timor is the Island in the lower Left Hand Corner ( Dili is the Black Dot on that Island ). I felt the Tremor for around 25-30 Seconds… no dramas. Indonesia actually issued a Tsunami Warning.
