Earth Rumbles in Remote WA | Sydney News

A 4.7-magnitude earthquake rattled the remote Nullarbor Plain near Cocklebiddy, felt by just one person—Tyson Allamson at a roadhouse—who woke up sensing something was off. Though not damaging, it’s the strongest quake in WA this year and underscores how sensitive Australia’s seismic sensors are. Similar quakes have hit before, including a 5.5 in South Australia and a 5.0 in Kalgoorlie-Boulder in 2010 that forced mine evacuations. This event reminds us: even quiet places can shake—and we’re now better equipped to detect them. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
