Another Earthquake in Corfu

Scary. Another earthquake occured two minutes ago and the lamp is still swinging in the air. It was again loud but not that loud as the previous one. It shook a bit more I think though. The exact time was 12.20 AM

There is much seismic activity lately, I hope we should not expect greater earthquakes.

Edit: The first site to have info on this earthquake is emsc-csem.org. I was 4.8 Richter strong.

I hope it will all be ok. I remember the earthquake we had in Cincinnati once. It was surreal, because no one expects them there. No real damage, but it was scary.

Quakes can be very scary especially if you arent used to them. We are actually used to them here but there is always the fear of a really great earthquake "hovering in the air", something like 6-7 Richter. I remember listening to seismologists many months ago saying that they are expecting a big earthquake in Greece. Or the pressure will release itself in many small quakes? The autopsy will show :)) LOL.
