Shania probably felt this quake if she was staying in New Zealand at the time on her ranch there.... From what I understand they have these quakes frequently...

Moderate quake rocks central New Zealand Wed Oct 3, 5:27 PM ET



WELLINGTON, New Zealand - A magnitude 5.6 earthquake shook central New Zealand Thursday, rocking homes across a wide area, but there were no immediate reports of injury or damage, emergency services said.

The quake hit at 8:15 a.m. Thursday and was located in the north of South Island, about 100 miles from the southern city of Christchurch, geological sciences agency, GNS Science, reported on its web site.

It said the tremblor was "widely felt in South Island" and also lightly rocked the capital, Wellington and southern North Island.

New Zealand sits above an area of the earth's crust where the Pacific and Australian tectonic plates are colliding and records more than 14,000 earthquakes a year — but only about 150 are felt by residents. Fewer than 10 a year do any damage...

That certainly is alarming. Here in New England, we have not had such a large earthquake, "yet". But geologists claim the potential is there. 5.6 though is nothing to sneeze at.
