Thread: Earthquake in Thailand

There was just a very long lasting earthquake here. Long enough that I grabbed the dog and left the house.

Any news from anyone else?

It happened in Chiang Rai also just a few minutes after.

Don't worry Kit, its the authorities moving heaven and earth to catch the culprits buring the forests

Just again now. Making me feel ill.

Hang Dong is without power and phone.

Still swaying.

My cupboard doors were all swinging open. I could see the car rocking back and forth.

^^^ Where is CW?

Strongest one I've experienced here.

Lasted for about a minute, then a shorter one about 5 minutes later.

So they were right about giddiness in Chiang Mai

I didn't see folks rushing into the streets from high rise buildings and traffic flow seems normal...

You beat me to it Misskit, I was about to start a thread 'Earthquake in Korat'.

It's the first one I've every experienced. I was upstairs in the house and there was a definite sway on.

It didn't do my aborigine family any good.



And water slopped out of the pool.



I took these photos at 13:27, so I guess it was a couple of minutes before that, and went on for at least a minute or so.

Title changed!

Noticeable wobble on 11th floor here in Hua Hin.
