4.7R off the coast of N. Island N.Z.

A 4.7R earthquake has come late last night (GMT) off the coast of the North Island, as shown by the red spot on the map above. We think this came a little early as we were expecting it a few hours later. However we also thought it would come in Cook Strait. It has come anyway and far enough to be of any concern. Be Safe Be Good!
