This morning at 05.43 hrs. we were
awoken by the rumbling and noise of an earth quake. It seemed to
travel from the front to the rear of the house. We haven't
experienced any damage to our property.
According to the National Geographical
Institute here in Spain the epicentre
was approximately 5 kilometres off the coast where we are and some 11
kilometres below the surface. Although this is an area that
experiences small tremors on a regular basis they are not usually
above a magnitude of 3 whereas this was registered at 3.4.
It is reported that although the
PolicĂa Local and the Guardia Civil received numerous calls from
members of the public there were no reports of damage according to
data initially collected by the Emergency Coordination Center.
