DAY 13 FEBRUARY 2016 CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand
QUAKE RETURNED WITH REMINDER OF FIVE YEARS AGO..
Residents of Christchurch in New Zealand were given a remembrance with a shaking rumbling on Sunday, February 14, 2016 with a 5.6 magnitude earthquake. The quake came just around a week's before it's anniversary date five years before which at least 185 people perished. This quake also shook down a section of a cliff close by the seashore which fell with rocks into the waters below. Many of the residents had very little to damaged buildings, however panic frighted many and the quake caused some special medical conditions such as shortness of breath and heart attacks that require emergency assistance. The quake stirred things around as to knocking things off shelves and with heavy shaking turning things over. Sirens sounded out around the areas, but there was no immediate threat of an approaching tsunami. Many were afraid were nervous and uncertain of more aftershocks.
