A massive M6.9 earthquake occurred in the Lombok area in Indonesia at
2:56am Monday morning NZ time.
(10:56pm Sunday on site, 2:56pm Sunday GMT)
- Over 3 million people will have experienced strong to very strong quake
shaking and death toll seems likely to be in the 10's to 100's range :-(.
(Higher and lower possible)
- A somewhat smaller but major earthquake 10 hours earlier may have alerted
people well enough to reduce casualties in this quake.
