Happened at about 3 mins to 9 this morning. Magnitude 4, lot of people felt it across Mayo and into Sligo. Some structural damage reported.
People said it was like a juggernaut thundering by the house.
A man on Lough Conn said his dog starting going mad for no reason. The lake was like a sheet of glass, then the water started rippling.

Great excitement on mid-west all morning.
They just announced on the news, in fully serious tone, that "the risk of a tsunami has now passed".  :) :)

Who was this Man ? Was he walking on Water ? Has the fishing improved on Lough Conn because it's been sh*te for years ?

The Shell to Sea lads in Glengad will love this.

The reports are hard to work out.

"We've had no reports of damage, apart from some rattling of windows. People have said the sensation felt like a lorry going into the side of a house or a steamroller going down the road,"

Would lorries going in to the side of houses be common in Mayo? There's a bit of a difference in windows rattling and a Leyland steamrolling your bedroom.

I'd say Charlie Bird is the only one capable of reporting from a region hit by an earthquake .
