Police were flooded with calls from hundreds of worried residents from north of Melbourne to Sale in Gippsland after the earth shook for a few seconds just after 9pm. The epicentre hit just north of Korumburra in South Gippsland, but the earthquake was powerful enough to shake buildings and cause some residents to fall off their couches in metropolitan Melbourne. Some homes around Korumburra and Leongatha lost power for up to 10 minutes. A Victoria Police spokeswoman said there were no reports of any injuries or property damage. Phil Cummins, duty seismologist at Geoscience Australia, which monitors earthquake activity, confirmed the tremor measured 4.6. "It was certainly a moderate earthquake that was likely to be felt across a wide area but is unlikely to have caused any damage, except possibly some minor damage near the epicentre,'' Mr Cummins said. Korumburra Hotel bar worker Kylie Luttrel said she thought the pub had been hit by a truck. "We get lots of trucks through here, so when the earth started shaking, my first thought was that a truck was about to smash through,'' Ms Luttrel said. But she said patrons remained calm, and nothing had been damaged. "Nobody screamed, but everybody was a little anxious.'' For full local coverage go to the Herald Sun A spokeswoman for Victoria Police said the incident had also been reported to the police but she advised members of the public to only dial triple-0 in an emergency situation. Micro-blogging site Twitter was abuzz with activity following the earthquake with users posting more than 72 tweets per minute as of 9.40pm. Most were just shocked, however some were reporting damages to their homes. "I spend all that time in Japan, and I get my first earthquake in Melbourne. Really, what are the odds? Anyone?" said @deedwithoutname. "A 3m length of cornice now has also come away from the wall a little - maybe a 2mm wide crack," said @cameronstewart. -- → 主选单 → 分组讨论区 → 国家研究院 → 科学学术研究院 ─┐ ┌────────────────────────────┘ │ ┌ TY_Research 大气科学、天气学 │ ┌ 天文.地球.环境科学研究院 → ├ sky 天文学、太空科学 │ │ ├ Ecophilia 生态、环境 └→ ┤ └ Geography 地理 --
