Rudely awoken early this morning (3 am'ish) by my moving shaking bed, a 6.6 Richter scale earthquake hit off the shores of Pathos, Cyprus today. Anyone else feel it?

Not a thing, but it worried Swallows in UK who were on WhatsApp mid morning, asking about it. One of my dogs is usually extremely sensitive to them, but didn't wake up.

Estimated released energy: 5 x 1014 joules (139 gigawatt hours, equivalent to 1.2 x 105 tons of TNT or 7.5 atomic bombs!)

At least one of my four dogs will have a bit of a grumble if woken up by Quake, but not a murmur from them.
