Tokyo, Nov 12 (Prensa Latina) An earthquake of magnitude 6.2 hit eastern Japan today, according to the US Geological Survey.

Although a few light injuries were reported, there were no immediate reports of any casualties. The strong earthquake struck at a depth of 44 km at around 6.40 am (local time) near Kurayoshi city to the west of Osaka. At least 80,000 households initially suffered blackout, but the power was later restored. While no tsunami warning has been issued, the local media showed images of some damaged households and properties. The Japan Meteorological Agency warned of possible strong aftershocks in the next few days. Japan has been hit by few strong earthquakes in the past couple of years. sgl/oda/ymn</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161112172100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="itartass_en-c5c3d9f34f547014dff18646c8b05799"><title>No contingencies registered at Japanese nuclear facilities after earthquake — company</title><link>http://tass.com/world/911909</link><description>TOKYO, November 12. /TASS/.

A strong 6.2-magnitude earthquake hit eastern Japan Saturday, the US Geological Survey said, but there were no immediate reports of damage. The quake, at a depth of 44 kilometres (27 miles), struck shortly after 6:42 am (2142 GMT) near the northeast coast of the main Honshu island, some 350 kilometres from Tokyo. No tsunami warning was issued. Japan sits at the junction of four tectonic plates and experiences a number of relatively violent quakes every year, but rigid building codes and their strict enforcement mean even strong tremors often do little damage. A massive undersea quake however that hit in March 2011 sent a tsunami barrelling into Japan's northeast coast, leaving more than 18,000 people dead or missing, and sending three reactors into meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear plant. In April, two strong earthquakes hit southern Japan's Kumamoto prefecture followed by more than 1,700 aftershocks, leaving at least 50 dead and causing widespread damage.

"When earthquake strike Gujarat, Kobe was the first to help the people of the state. 'First develop India', is my definition of FDI. However the other one is Foreign Direct Investment," Modi said while addressing the Indian community here. Modi said that efforts are being made rapidly to make India free from poverty. Earlier, Prime Minister Modi who is on a three day-visit to Japan, also pitched his ' Make in India' initiative here saying that Tokyo plays an important role in the scheme, as India needs scale, speed and skill.

The quake, at a depth of 44 kilometres (27 miles), struck shortly after 6:42 am (2142 GMT) near the northeast coast of the main Honshu island, some 350 kilometres from Tokyo. No tsunami warning was issued. Japan sits at the junction of four tectonic plates and experiences a number of relatively violent quakes every year, but rigid building codes and their strict enforcement mean even strong tremors often do little damage. A massive undersea quake however that hit in March 2011 sent a tsunami barrelling into Japans northeast coast, leaving more than 18,000 people dead or missing, and sending three reactors into meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear plant. In April, two strong earthquakes hit southern Japans Kumamoto prefecture followed by more than 1,700 aftershocks, leaving at least 50 dead and causing widespread damage.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161112014000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="theglobeandmail-8d9d175c3573d229afc35ac6356a1048" duplicate="fox13memphis-2b7cb40bfd87b8913440aa6440779510"><title>Strong quake strikes off Japan's east coast; no casualties</title><link>http://www.theglobeandmail.com/feeds/canadian-press/world/strong-earthquake-strikes-off-japans-east-coast/article32829785/</link><description>A magnitude-6.2 earthquake struck off the east coast of Japan early Saturday, but no damage or casualties were reported.

Then, a wall of water, with an unimaginable force that can flatten an entire building in seconds. If you survive the initial blow, you now face an unrelenting pounding of wave after wave, and like a pinball machine, you are being battered by debris, uprooted trees and cars that share the same violent trajectory as you. Those who have lived through a tsunami describe an almost unsurvivable scenario. "The first wave just looked like a wall of white coming toward you, and the sound ... it was just screams everywhere and just the crashing sound. .. the water just kept coming and coming," one tsunami survivor told CNN. So how do people survive one of Mother Nature's most deadly forces? Get to higher ground. Tsunamis are giant waves triggered by anything that disrupts the ocean, including earthquakes or volcanic eruptions under the sea, so the first sign may be a rumbling Earth, or a rapid rise or fall in ocean waters. Don't wait for a warning. Run. For people in low-lying, coastal areas, a tsunami could arrive just minutes after an earthquake, far too quickly for official warnings to be disseminated. "Similar to storm surge in a hurricane, if you are on the beach when a tsunami comes ashore, you would not survive it," said CNN meteorologist Brandon Miller. "The force of the water, as well as all the turbulence and currents within, would be too strong. A 6-10 foot tsunami, while it doesn't sound huge, would be extremely damaging, and can run ashore great distances, depending on the elevation of the coastline," Miller said. Too late to run. Now what? Sometimes it may be impossible to avoid a tsunami. If you are trapped or unable to evacuate to higher ground, your next step is to find a sturdy vertical refuge. This is not ideal as the structure itself could collapse, but if it is your only course of action, head to the highest possible point. In areas with a heightened threat of tsunami, you may see buildings or escape routes marked with the international symbol for tsunami, follow these. If you are swept up in a turbulent current, your best course of action is to cling to something that floats, such as a door or a tree trunk. "I was saved by holding onto the roof, but my wife was swept away," said one man who survived the deadly 2011 tsunami in Japan. Stay vigilant. Do not return to coastal areas until the tsunami threat is declared over by authorities. Pay close attention to your local alert system -- radio announcements, official websites, social media accounts and emergency cellphone alerts -- and heed the advice. Tsunamis can last for hours, so use common sense. During the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the most devastating on record, many people were killed when they returned to the beach to watch the retreating ocean exposing the seafloor. A rapidly receding ocean is a phenomenon that usually precedes a killer wave, according to NOAA. The aftermath. Check yourself and others for injuries. Give first aid to people who are injured or trapped as you may now be in an area temporarily inaccessible to emergency assistance. Do not re-enter buildings until they have been cleared for structural integrity. Tsunami waters, like floodwaters, can undermine a building's foundations and cause floors to crack or walls to collapse. Bodies, destroyed sewer lines, contaminated freshwater supplies and downed power lines create the biggest health risks long after the tsunami waters recede. It is always a good idea to be equipped for any disaster with an evacuation plan for you and your family and an emergency preparedness kit.

Then, a wall of water, with an unimaginable force that can flatten an entire building in seconds. If you survive the initial blow, you now face an unrelenting pounding of wave after wave, and like a pinball machine, you are being battered by debris, uprooted trees and cars that share the same violent trajectory as you. Those who have lived through a tsunami describe an almost unsurvivable scenario. "The first wave just looked like a wall of white coming toward you, and the sound ... it was just screams everywhere and just the crashing sound. .. the water just kept coming and coming," one tsunami survivor told CNN. So how do people survive one of Mother Nature's most deadly forces? Get to higher ground. Tsunamis are giant waves triggered by anything that disrupts the ocean, including earthquakes or volcanic eruptions under the sea, so the first sign may be a rumbling Earth, or a rapid rise or fall in ocean waters. Don't wait for a warning. Run. For people in low-lying, coastal areas, a tsunami could arrive just minutes after an earthquake, far too quickly for official warnings to be disseminated. "Similar to storm surge in a hurricane, if you are on the beach when a tsunami comes ashore, you would not survive it," said CNN meteorologist Brandon Miller. "The force of the water, as well as all the turbulence and currents within, would be too strong. A 6-10 foot tsunami, while it doesn't sound huge, would be extremely damaging, and can run ashore great distances, depending on the elevation of the coastline," Miller said. Too late to run. Now what? Sometimes it may be impossible to avoid a tsunami. If you are trapped or unable to evacuate to higher ground, your next step is to find a sturdy vertical refuge. This is not ideal as the structure itself could collapse, but if it is your only course of action, head to the highest possible point. In areas with a heightened threat of tsunami, you may see buildings or escape routes marked with the international symbol for tsunami, follow these. If you are swept up in a turbulent current, your best course of action is to cling to something that floats, such as a door or a tree trunk. "I was saved by holding onto the roof, but my wife was swept away," said one man who survived the deadly 2011 tsunami in Japan. Stay vigilant. Do not return to coastal areas until the tsunami threat is declared over by authorities. Pay close attention to your local alert system -- radio announcements, official websites, social media accounts and emergency cellphone alerts -- and heed the advice. Tsunamis can last for hours, so use common sense. During the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the most devastating on record, many people were killed when they returned to the beach to watch the retreating ocean exposing the seafloor. A rapidly receding ocean is a phenomenon that usually precedes a killer wave, according to NOAA. The aftermath. Check yourself and others for injuries. Give first aid to people who are injured or trapped as you may now be in an area temporarily inaccessible to emergency assistance. Do not re-enter buildings until they have been cleared for structural integrity. Tsunami waters, like floodwaters, can undermine a building's foundations and cause floors to crack or walls to collapse. Bodies, destroyed sewer lines, contaminated freshwater supplies and downed power lines create the biggest health risks long after the tsunami waters recede. It is always a good idea to be equipped for any disaster with an evacuation plan for you and your family and an emergency preparedness kit.

Although "supermoons” are quite common – usually occurring every 14 months – Monday's will be the closest in quite some time and won't return to a similar distance until 2034. According to NASA, our planet's solitary companion will be just 356,509 kilometers from the surface of the Earth. That is some 27,891 kilometers closer than its average distance in the night sky. Should the weather permit a clear sky, eagle-eyed gazers will note a moon 14 percent bigger than its usual size and far brighter than its normal reflection due to the Earth being closer to the sun at this time of year. Although most may not notice much of a difference once the moon is at its highest point in the night sky, astronomers believe it will be apparent on the horizon. And it could be quite the spectacle. "When you look at the moon when it's rising, there is this optical illusion where it looks bigger," Mark Bailey, astronomer and emeritus director of the Armagh Observatory in Northern Ireland, told AFP. Pascal Descamps, astronomer at the Paris Observatory, agrees. "If you want to try to photograph it, choose a location where you'll get some nice terrestrial feature in the foreground,” he suggests. "A well-known landmark such as a tower or a spire will provide a nice comparison, particularly if you stay back a bit and use a zoom or telephoto lens which will magnify both objects." 

Plenty of opportunities. Of course, if clouds happen to crowd Monday's sky there will be other opportunities to see the spectacle in full view. According to Noah Petro, deputy project scientist for NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) mission, the supermoon should be visible for a number of days. "I've been telling people to go out at night on either Sunday or Monday to see the supermoon,” he said. "The difference in distance from one night to the next will be very subtle, so if it's cloudy on Sunday, go out on Monday. Any time after sunset should be fine. Since the moon is full, it'll rise at nearly the same time as sunset, so I'd suggest that you head outside after sunset, or once it's dark and the moon is a bit higher in the sky. You don't have to stay up all night to see it, unless you really want to.” Tidal consequences. One of the most striking features of the moon is the gravitational effect it has on the Earth's oceans. Due to the elliptical nature of the moon's orbit of the Earth, the ocean levels tend to rise and fall in the form of tides and the patterns that they follow. Monday's supermoon should then suggest a higher tide, meaning possible minor flooding in part but most notably bigger waves throughout the world. While surfers may enjoy the larger waves and added brightness, should they choose to go out at night, the effects of a supermoon on tidal patterns has often been blamed for natural disasters. In 2011 NASA was forced to dismiss the theory that a tsunami and earthquake that hit Japan was due to an upcoming supermoon, while coastguards in the United Kingdom suggested that the lunar event was responsible for five fishing vessels running ashore off the coast of the Isle of Wight in the same month. "The effects on Earth from a supermoon are minor, and according to the most detailed studies by terrestrial seismologists and volcanologists, the combination of the moon being at its closest to Earth in its orbit, and being in its 'full moon' configuration (relative to the Earth and sun), should not affect the internal energy balance of the Earth since there are lunar tides every day," said Jim Garvin, chief scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, at the time. "The Earth has stored a tremendous amount of internal energy within its thin outer shell or crust, and the small differences in the tidal forces exerted by the moon (and sun) are not enough to fundamentally overcome the much larger forces within the planet due to convection (and other aspects of the internal energy balance that drives plate tectonics)."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113193000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="news4jax-880c002dbcf57fd2912f4842887efb66" duplicate="click2houston-e0d2a12d9c49e9777ed0fdd06ebecfbd"><title>What to do if a tsunami strikes 56 Mins</title><link>http://www.news4jax.com/news/international/what-to-do-if-a-tsunami-strikes</link><description>(CNN) - It begins with a roaring sound not dissimilar from a freight train or a Boeing 747 in takeoff.

Then, a wall of water, with an unimaginable force that can flatten an entire building in seconds. If you survive the initial blow, you now face an unrelenting pounding of wave after wave, and like a pinball machine, you are being battered by debris, uprooted trees and cars that share the same violent trajectory as you. Those who have lived through a tsunami describe an almost unsurvivable scenario. "The first wave just looked like a wall of white coming toward you, and the sound ... it was just screams everywhere and just the crashing sound. .. the water just kept coming and coming," one tsunami survivor told CNN. So how do people survive one of Mother Nature's most deadly forces? Get to higher ground. Tsunamis are giant waves triggered by anything that disrupts the ocean, including earthquakes or volcanic eruptions under the sea, so the first sign may be a rumbling Earth, or a rapid rise or fall in ocean waters. Don't wait for a warning. Run. For people in low-lying, coastal areas, a tsunami could arrive just minutes after an earthquake, far too quickly for official warnings to be disseminated. "Similar to storm surge in a hurricane, if you are on the beach when a tsunami comes ashore, you would not survive it," said CNN meteorologist Brandon Miller. "The force of the water, as well as all the turbulence and currents within, would be too strong. A 6-10 foot tsunami, while it doesn't sound huge, would be extremely damaging, and can run ashore great distances, depending on the elevation of the coastline," Miller said. Too late to run. Now what? Sometimes it may be impossible to avoid a tsunami. If you are trapped or unable to evacuate to higher ground, your next step is to find a sturdy vertical refuge. This is not ideal as the structure itself could collapse, but if it is your only course of action, head to the highest possible point. In areas with a heightened threat of tsunami, you may see buildings or escape routes marked with the international symbol for tsunami, follow these. If you are swept up in a turbulent current, your best course of action is to cling to something that floats, such as a door or a tree trunk. "I was saved by holding onto the roof, but my wife was swept away," said one man who survived the deadly 2011 tsunami in Japan. Stay vigilant. Do not return to coastal areas until the tsunami threat is declared over by authorities. Pay close attention to your local alert system -- radio announcements, official websites, social media accounts and emergency cellphone alerts -- and heed the advice. Tsunamis can last for hours, so use common sense. During the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the most devastating on record, many people were killed when they returned to the beach to watch the retreating ocean exposing the seafloor. A rapidly receding ocean is a phenomenon that usually precedes a killer wave, according to NOAA. The aftermath. Check yourself and others for injuries. Give first aid to people who are injured or trapped as you may now be in an area temporarily inaccessible to emergency assistance. Do not re-enter buildings until they have been cleared for structural integrity. Tsunami waters, like floodwaters, can undermine a building's foundations and cause floors to crack or walls to collapse. Bodies, destroyed sewer lines, contaminated freshwater supplies and downed power lines create the biggest health risks long after the tsunami waters recede. It is always a good idea to be equipped for any disaster with an evacuation plan for you and your family and an emergency preparedness kit.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 1:30 p.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key is traveling to the epicenter of Monday's powerful earthquake to survey the damage. Key is taking a helicopter to the small South Island coastal town of Kaikoura. The town is a popular destination for tourists taking part in whale-watching expeditions. Police said one person died in Kaikoura and another died in Mt. Lyford, a nearby ski resort. Police say they have also received reports that several people had suffered minor injuries in Kaikoura. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. 7:25 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand have downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following a powerful earthquake. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114014600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="siouxcityjournal-54ae7e63ed7bd1410e1e532f88f8880e" duplicate="news-yahoo-61ff31e9c85b4d354f55c9709554e053"><title>The Latest: New Zealand capital urges workers to stay home</title><link>http://siouxcityjournal.com/news/world/the-latest-new-zealand-capital-urges-workers-to-stay-home/article_a87dbc06-9fb0-5e5b-8654-a0feee53129e.html</link><description>A large fissure runs along Kaikoura Road about two hours north of Christchurch Monday, Nov. 14, 2016, after a major earthquake struck New Zealand's south Island early Monday.

In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113194100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="AP-6fa22cc48174f7af95a9a2491d9440ca"><title>The Latest: New Zealand PM to survey earthquake damage</title><link>http://hosted2.ap.org/APDEFAULT/cae69a7523db45408eeb2b3a98c0c9c5/Article_2016-11-13-AS--New%20Zealand-Earthquake-The%20Latest/id-4da2457df9964a3583215618fe01cab8</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) â€” The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 1:30 p.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key is traveling to the epicenter of Monday's powerful earthquake to survey the damage.

The magnitude 7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island.

The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch. Copyright 2016 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

The magnitude 7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114024400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="news-yahoo-a50e60c3542194ba4fc7839e31c33ba1" duplicate="news-yahoo-4b1dd0db2420ed4b67a93c65005e3812"><title>The Latest: New Zealand capital urges workers to stay home</title><link>https://www.yahoo.com/news/latest-powerful-zealand-quake-causes-local-tsunami-131509428.html?ref=gs</link><description>A large fissure runs along Kaikoura Road about two hours north of Christchurch Monday, Nov. 14, 2016, after a major earthquake struck New Zealand's south Island early Monday.

level and located in the greater epicenter area. As the quake happened inland it is unknown what pattern the tsunami waves will have. As i slept in Kaikoura 7 months ago, i do know the area a bit and truly hope that the first readings are wrong. Kaikoura is also the place where the penguins can be observed. A special penguin center is close to the beach and at risk too. "Tidal measurements from Geonet now indicate that a tsunami two metres or more has been recorded in Kaikoura, and indications are it will hit other parts of the South Island soon. Civil Defence is warning all residents of the coastal South Island, North Island and the Chatham Islands to move inland or to higher ground as soon as possible." Update 12:45 UTC : The bridge on Hapuku Rd in Kaikoura Flat is closed due to damage. Update 12:44 UTC : Tsunami news

The tsunami threat is for the east coast of all New Zealand (including Christchurch, Wellington and the Chatham islands) MCDEM (@NZcivildefence)

Update 12:41 UTC : In Christchurch November 13, 2016 , hotels and occupied buildings inthe CBD have been evacuated. Many people are standing around in the middle of the street, away from buildings, calling people to let them know they're fine. Some people are venturing back inside, because nobody seems to be enforcing the evacuations. ER: Christchurch is at about 90 km from the epicenter which explains that NO serious damage has been reported there as yet. Update 12:38 UTC : There are (mostly unconfirmed) reports of collapsed houses and even bridges (more will follow soon) Update 12:36 UTC : Based on the last massive earthquake in the same greater area, we expect a high number of moderate to very powerful aftershocks (which is confirmed by the many aftershocks so far). These aftershocks can go on for weeks with regular very strong shakes as part of it. Update 12:34 UTC : Tsunami gauges measured serious waves and the Kaikoura to Wellington coast is at risk. Update 12:28 UTC : The many fault lines in the area of today's earthquake. The region had also other massive earthquakes in the past. Update 12:17 UTC : Professor Max Wyss, who specializes in theoretical prognoses of injuries and fatalities expects : Injuries 20 to 200 and fatalities 10 to 100 (very uncertain based on too many different earthquake data) Update 12:15 UTC : Wellington : In Wellington, hundreds of people are on the streets as building alarms sound and fire trucks and police cars head around the CBD. Windows in some high-rise office buildings have smashed, while plaster and masonry appears to have fallen down from some buildings. Update 12:11 UTC : A tweet showing damage in Wellington (if true), at quite a distance from the epicenter. If the picture is a real one from this earthquake (to be confirmed) this doesn't look well for the morning and for the epicenter region.

Cheers for the concern all, everyone's ok. Here's the kitchen... Richard Bicknell (@dickbicknell) November 13, 2016 Update 12:02 UTC : Updated LIVE "I have Felt It" MAP from New-Zealand Geonet

http://www.geonet.org.nz/quakes/region/newzealand/2016p858000. Important UPDATE 11:54 UTC : Local (to be trusted) GEONET reports the mainshock as a M6.6 earthquake at a depth of 16 km, still very dangerous but way below the originally internationally reported M7.4! Update 11:45 UTC : Stuff.co.nz writes that according to the local seismological agency, the thermal tourist town "Hanmer Springs" will be nearest to the epicenter. (http://hanmersprings.co.nz/pools) Update 11:43 UTC : Still NO direct information from the epicenter area. Update 11:43 UTC : USGS shaking maps. Update 11:39 UTC : A lot of moderate and even strong aftershocks. Update 11:34 UTC : A few remarks from the local New Zealand press : The quake was strongly felt in Christchurch, Wellington, Taranaki, Hamilton and Auckland. Power and phones were out in Waikanae on the Kapiti Coast. In Nelson, resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". Update 11:30 UTC : Based on the I HAVE FELT MAP from local GEONET so far, the shaking looks very strong to strong. Almost no felt reports from the direct epicenter area for 2 reasons Communications may be down in the direct epicenter area but also because the area is very sparsely populated. Update 11:26 UTC : An orange Tsunami alert has been edited by GDACS although most of the agencies are locating the epicenter below inland. Update 11:21 UTC : The shaking was well felt in the North Island too. Update 11:18 UTC : As it is dark in New Zealand at the moment, information of possible damage will only arrive slowly. Update 11:16 UTC : As you can see on the map below, the epicenter location is still very unreliable at this point. Depending on the exact location, the level of damage and eventual injuries will differ a lot. Update 11:14 UTC : The epicenter is located North of Christchurch in a less populated mountainous region, but due to the strength of the eartghquake will be nevertheless very dangerous. Update 11:13 UTC : ER believes that this earthquake is very dangerous for damage and possible fatalities.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

People evacuated from the Quest Hotel stand outside in Wellington, New Zealand after an earthquake based around Cheviot in the South island shook the capital, early Nov. 14, 2016. According to reports, a 7.4. earthquake has hit New Zealand overnight, triggering a tsunami warning for the east coast of the country. (Photo: Ross Setford, European Pressphoto Agency)

The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

have prompted coastal residents to flee their homes after tsunami alerts. Civil Defence is scrambling to assess damage from the first, 7.5 magnitude earthquake centred near Hanmer Springs, which shook much of the country and was followed by a series of strong aftershocks. Tsunami activity has been detected in Kaikoura and Wellington, while St John is responding to reports of injuries in North Canterbury, including sending rescue helicopters to the area.

What we know so far. It was centred near Hanmer Springs, magnitude 7.5 (upgraded from a 6.6), 16km deep and struck at 12.02am. Several major shakes hit afterwards, most in the Canterbury and the upper South Island. Civil Defence says a destructive tsunami was possible. It warned people in southern coastal areas and the east coast of both the North and South islands to take precautions and move away from the coast. Tsunami sirens went off from Northland to Christchurch. Wave activity was detected in Wellington and the South Island, including a tsunami two metres or more in Kaikoura, a wave in the north-eastern coast of the South Island, Civil Defence tweeted. People self-evacuated from New Brighton, in Christchurch, and central Wellington. People were evacuated from Marlborough. People in Lyall Bay, in Wellington, moved to higher ground. Dunedin civil defence declared a local state of emergency and evacuated people from low-lying areas. Houses were reported to be damaged in Kaikoura and chimneys down in Culverden. St John said they had reports of injuries in those areas and were sending rescue helicopters. There were power cuts in North Canterbury, from Kaikoura to Cheviot. The Hurunui District Council said Rotherham and Waiau were isolated by slips and damage to the bridge. GNS duty seismologist Anna Kaiser said the quake was "definitely" felt across the country. Strong aftershocks follow the big one 4.33AM: A 5.5 magnitude earthquake southeast of Seddon, 19km deep. 2.50am: 5.1 magnitude earthquake, southeast of Seddon, 8km deep; 2.31am: A 6.1 earthquake north of Kaikoura, 25 km deep. 2.21am: A 5.8 magnitude earthquake south-east of Seddon, 11km deep. 2.20am: A 5.5 east of Seddon, 15km deep. 2.12am: A 4.6 earthquake south of Seddon, 15km deep; 1.38am: 5.3 earthquake east of Seddon, 7km deep; 1.37am: 5.2 magnitude earthquake west of Kaikoura, 15km deep; 1.31am: 4.7 magnitude earthquake, east of Seddon, 12km deep; 1.25am: 5.2 earthquake north of Culverden (North Canterbury, 30km deep; 1.21am: 4.9 earthquake, east of Paraparaumu, 9km deep; 1.11am: 4.9 earthquake, southeast of Seddon, 10km deep; 1.04am: 4.9 earthquake, southeast of Wellington, 10km deep; 1.03am: 5.2 earthquake, southeast of Seddon, 9km deep; 12.52am: 6.2 magnitude earthquake, north of Kaikoura, 32km deep; 12.41am: 5.6 magnitude earthquake, southeast of Seddon, 9km deep; 12.32am: 6.2 magnitude earthquake, north of Kaikoura, 29km deep; 12.24am: 5.6 magnitude earthquake, north of Kaikoura, 12km deep; 12.16am: 5.6 magnitude earthquake, west of Culverden, 2km deep; 12.02am: 7.5 magnitude earthquake, northeast of Culverden, 15km deep. The earthquake sequence is the biggest since the 5.7 Valentine's Day earthquake, which caused cliffs in the Christchurch suburb of Sumner to fall and liquefaction in some east Christchurch areas. How people took it. RNZ presenter Simon Morton, who lives on the south coast in Wellington, evacuated his house after noticing the tide dropping away. Other people had joined him in going to higher ground. Cheers for the concern all, everyone's ok. Here's the kitchen... — Richard Bicknell (@dickbicknell) November 13, 2016 Alan Vincent was on the water near Lyttelton near Christchurch when the quake struck. He said it felt like "giants shaking the living daylights out of the boat". Hotel guests in central Christchurch were evacuated. More than 100 people stood on the footpath opposite the Christchurch Casino, while at least 100 hotel guests are outside the Novotel, opposite the Christ Church Cathedral. Alan Vincent was on the water near Lyttelton when the quake struck. He said it felt like "giants shaking the living daylights out of the boat". Cheviot firefighter Chris Hill said the roads were "a bit cut up". Robin, from Christchurch, said the earthquake was a "wake up call". New Brighton resident Dean Kozanic evacuated his home as a precaution because of the tsunami warning. He said many residents in the suburb were doing the same. Cheviot district councillor Vince Daly said there were reports of roads cracked nearby, which had left motorists parked.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113170300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="krmg-5401d7cec2eb9a0361a76edd9e4a4385" duplicate="AP-6fa22cc48174f7af95a9a2491d9440ca"><title>The Latest: New Zealand PM to survey earthquake damage</title><link>http://www.krmg.com/ap/ap/top-news/the-latest-powerful-new-zealand-quake-causes-local/ns7X4/</link><description>The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 1:30 p.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key is traveling to the epicenter of Monday's powerful earthquake to survey the damage.

Key is taking a helicopter to the small South Island coastal town of Kaikoura. The town is a popular destination for tourists taking part in whale-watching expeditions. Police said one person died in Kaikoura and another died in Mt. Lyford, a nearby ski resort. Police say they have also received reports that several people had suffered minor injuries in Kaikoura. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. 7:25 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand have downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following a powerful earthquake. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114022000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="irishmirror-ca172f6da009d927b9b24f5f643e1fa3" duplicate="themirror-285088c504927bcf6ed892b15c29f64f"><title>Tsunami threat sparked by powerful 7.4 earthquake that hit Christ Church in New Zealand</title><link>http://www.irishmirror.ie/news/powerful-earthquake-hits-christchurch-new-9251440</link><description>An earthquake of magnitude 7.4 has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand, triggering a tsunami warning.

The quake hit 57 miles north east of the city, which is on the east coast of the country's South Island. It struck in the early hours of Monday morning in Christchurch which was reduced to rubble by an earthquake just five years ago. The tsunami threat is for the east coast of all New Zealand including Christchurch, Wellington and the Chatham islands. Chef Tim Owen, 29, was at home in Halswell, a satellite town of Christchurch, when the earthquake hit.

He said: "It went on for like a minute or so, which is quite long. It felt like swaying and like a wave. "We just got up from the couch and stood in the doorway. It does make you feel very anxious not knowing if it will get worse or when it may stop. "The thought of a tsunami is always scary. I have some friends that live right on the beach so have contacted them. We live about 25 minutes from the beach, it's not too far." The New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency management tweeted: "Situation has changed - tsunami is possible.

situation has changed - tsunami is possible. People near the coast in the south island should move to high ground or inlande MCDEM (@NZcivildefence) November 13, 2016 Our chimney thought it would introduce itself to the neighbours

Me: almost asleep Giant earthquake: LMAO professor kaitlin (@kaiitlin) November 13, 2016 "People near the coast in the south island should move to high ground or inland."

Today's earthquake measured more powerfully on the Richter scale than 2011's 6.3 quake. Power lines and phone lines are said to be down, including emergency lines to police, fire and ambulance services. Others reported that the emergency number 111 was back up and running.

Richard Bicknell tweeted this picture of bricks and rubble after the massive quake in New Zealand. Anthropology student Heather McMillan said her home shook “like jelly” when the earthquake struck as she was getting ready for bed, and she feared it was going to collapse. The 20-year-old told Mirror Online: “When it started it was really big so I thought it was going to be short but it kept going for a good few minutes and felt like the second floor was going to fall down.

6.something magnitude #earthquake did it's damage I'm on the 7th floor! I'm rekt! Alysa Jane (@alysajaney) November 13, 2016 “Very quickly you realise it's an earthquake because I’ve felt one before. “But this was a different level. I honestly thought it was going to last for 20 minutes or longer.

“I live in the second storey of a flat and it was like a rolling feeling from the house. The aftershocks have felt like we're a ship at sea. ”She said the tremor lasted around five minutes but it felt like forever". She added: “I think it's one of those moments when you start thinking whether this is it? Like the big earthquake that's going to put Christchurch back into the place it was five years ago?” Heather said her flat did not suffer any damage, but her parents in Wellington were without power and had some belongings damaged as the earthquake shook their home. Patsy Knight told Mirror Online that aftershocks were still continuing 20 minutes after the quake. She said: "We're in Wellington and absolutely terrifying. Smashed glass everywhere, but thankfully all good. Not much sleep happening though, kids with us. Aftershocks continuously happening!" The earthquake was felt as far away as Auckland, Wellington, Nelson and Hamilton. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". He told Stuff.co.NZ : "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it. "The cat has disappeared and the neighbours dog is upset."

Kaitlin in Wellington posted a picture of her home, showing her possessions strewn around the room following the earthquake. In Nelson, resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". She said it had a much longer, more rolling motion than a 2010 Canterbury quake she experienced. Davis said she was surprised there appeared to be no damage to the house. "It really shook for a long time." The quake hit 57 miles north east of the city, which is on the east coast of the country's South Island. Others took to social media to show pictures and videos of their devastated homes. Alysa Jane tweeted: "6.something magnitude earthquake did it's damage I'm on the 7th floor! I'm rekt!" Kavithya wrote: "That was a huge earthquake. Got evacuated out of our apartment building. Hope everyone affected by it are safe!" Cynthia Drescher, from Christchurch, said the earthquake lasted for three to four minutes. She said she was evacuated to a building rebuilt after it was destroyed in the 2011 quake. Cynthia described aftershocks she felt as "freaky". Well-wishers from around the world sent their best wishes to the stricken country which has been devastated by earthquakes over the years. Arnoud Beckers, from Holland, wrote: "Hope everybody is safe in the beautiful city of Christchurch. Again hit by a huge quake." Islanders could face aftershocks which often follow the main quake. They can cause further building damage and falling debris. A Christchurch Police spokeswoman told Stuff.co.NZ they hadn't received any calls about damage. "Just be careful on the roads in case there's damage," she said. St John Ambulance says they have no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre (EOC)", they said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113134100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="themirror-66acfc2e7a64ca1db432a3e6af6957e0" duplicate="themirror-285088c504927bcf6ed892b15c29f64f"><title>Families warned to flee New Zealand coast 'immediately' over tsunami threat sparked by 7.4-magnitude earthquake</title><link>http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/powerful-earthquake-hits-christchurch-new-9251440</link><description>An earthquake of magnitude 7.4 has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand, triggering a tsunami warning.

Alysa Jane (@alysajaney) November 13, 2016 “Very quickly you realise it's an earthquake because I’ve felt one before. “But this was a different level. I honestly thought it was going to last for 20 minutes or longer.

“I live in the second storey of a flat and it was like a rolling feeling from the house. The aftershocks have felt like we're a ship at sea. ”She said the tremor lasted around five minutes but it felt like forever". She added: “I think it's one of those moments when you start thinking whether this is it? Like the big earthquake that's going to put Christchurch back into the place it was five years ago?” Heather said her flat did not suffer any damage, but her parents in Wellington were without power and had some belongings damaged as the earthquake shook their home. Patsy Knight told Mirror Online that aftershocks were still continuing 20 minutes after the quake. She said: "We're in Wellington and absolutely terrifying. Smashed glass everywhere, but thankfully all good. Not much sleep happening though, kids with us. Aftershocks continuously happening!" The earthquake was felt as far away as Auckland, Wellington, Nelson and Hamilton. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". He told Stuff.co.NZ : "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it. "The cat has disappeared and the neighbours dog is upset."

Kaitlin in Wellington posted a picture of her home, showing her possessions strewn around the room following the earthquake. In Nelson, resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". She said it had a much longer, more rolling motion than a 2010 Canterbury quake she experienced. Davis said she was surprised there appeared to be no damage to the house. "It really shook for a long time." The quake hit 57 miles north east of the city, which is on the east coast of the country's South Island. Others took to social media to show pictures and videos of their devastated homes. Alysa Jane tweeted: "6.something magnitude earthquake did it's damage I'm on the 7th floor! I'm rekt!" Kavithya wrote: "That was a huge earthquake. Got evacuated out of our apartment building. Hope everyone affected by it are safe!" Cynthia Drescher, from Christchurch, said the earthquake lasted for three to four minutes. She said she was evacuated to a building rebuilt after it was destroyed in the 2011 quake. Cynthia described aftershocks she felt as "freaky". Well-wishers from around the world sent their best wishes to the stricken country which has been devastated by earthquakes over the years. Arnoud Beckers, from Holland, wrote: "Hope everybody is safe in the beautiful city of Christchurch. Again hit by a huge quake." Islanders could face aftershocks which often follow the main quake. They can cause further building damage and falling debris. A Christchurch Police spokeswoman told Stuff.co.NZ they hadn't received any calls about damage. "Just be careful on the roads in case there's damage," she said. St John Ambulance says they have no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre (EOC)", they said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113134200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="earthquake-report-1580421bd1bd884c581de67428aec932"><title>Massive earthquake in the Kaikoura region, New Zealand - At least 2 people killed</title><link>http://earthquake-report.com/2016/11/13/massive-earthquake-culverden-on-november-13-2016/</link><description>Update 12:41 UTC : In Christchurch November 13, 2016 , hotels and occupied buildings inthe CBD have been evacuated.

Christchurch November 13, 2016 , hotels and occupied buildings inthe CBD have been evacuated. Many people are standing around in the middle of the street, away from buildings, calling people to let them know they're fine. Some people are venturing back inside, because nobody seems to be enforcing the evacuations. ER: Christchurch is at about 90 km from the epicenter which explains that NO serious damage has been reported there as yet. Update 12:38 UTC : There are (mostly unconfirmed) reports of collapsed houses and even bridges (more will follow soon) Update 12:36 UTC : Based on the last massive earthquake in the same greater area, we expect a high number of moderate to very powerful aftershocks (which is confirmed by the many aftershocks so far). These aftershocks can go on for weeks with regular very strong shakes as part of it. Update 12:34 UTC : Tsunami gauges measured serious waves and the Kaikoura to Wellington coast is at risk. Update 12:28 UTC : The many fault lines in the area of today's earthquake. The region had also other massive earthquakes in the past. Update 12:17 UTC : Professor Max Wyss, who specializes in theoretical prognoses of injuries and fatalities expects : Injuries 20 to 200 and fatalities 10 to 100 (very uncertain based on too many different earthquake data) Update 12:15 UTC : Wellington : In Wellington, hundreds of people are on the streets as building alarms sound and fire trucks and police cars head around the CBD. Windows in some high-rise office buildings have smashed, while plaster and masonry appears to have fallen down from some buildings. Update 12:11 UTC : A tweet showing damage in Wellington (if true), at quite a distance from the epicenter. If the picture is a real one from this earthquake (to be confirmed) this doesn't look well for the morning and for the epicenter region. Cheers for the concern all, everyone's ok. Here's the kitchen... Richard Bicknell (@dickbicknell) November 13, 2016 Update 12:02 UTC : Updated LIVE "I have Felt It" MAP from New-Zealand Geonet

http://www.geonet.org.nz/quakes/region/newzealand/2016p858000. Important UPDATE 11:54 UTC : Local (to be trusted) GEONET reports the mainshock as a M6.6 earthquake at a depth of 16 km, still very dangerous but way below the originally internationally reported M7.4! Update 11:45 UTC : Stuff.co.nz writes that according to the local seismological agency, the thermal tourist town "Hanmer Springs" will be nearest to the epicenter. (http://hanmersprings.co.nz/pools) Update 11:43 UTC : Still NO direct information from the epicenter area. Update 11:43 UTC : USGS shaking maps. Update 11:39 UTC : A lot of moderate and even strong aftershocks. Update 11:34 UTC : A few remarks from the local New Zealand press : The quake was strongly felt in Christchurch, Wellington, Taranaki, Hamilton and Auckland. Power and phones were out in Waikanae on the Kapiti Coast. In Nelson, resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". Update 11:30 UTC : Based on the I HAVE FELT MAP from local GEONET so far, the shaking looks very strong to strong. Almost no felt reports from the direct epicenter area for 2 reasons Communications may be down in the direct epicenter area but also because the area is very sparsely populated. Update 11:26 UTC : An orange Tsunami alert has been edited by GDACS although most of the agencies are locating the epicenter below inland. Update 11:21 UTC : The shaking was well felt in the North Island too. Update 11:18 UTC : As it is dark in New Zealand at the moment, information of possible damage will only arrive slowly. Update 11:16 UTC : As you can see on the map below, the epicenter location is still very unreliable at this point. Depending on the exact location, the level of damage and eventual injuries will differ a lot. Update 11:14 UTC : The epicenter is located North of Christchurch in a less populated mountainous region, but due to the strength of the eartghquake will be nevertheless very dangerous. Update 11:13 UTC : ER believes that this earthquake is very dangerous for damage and possible fatalities.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

People evacuated from the Quest Hotel stand outside in Wellington, New Zealand after an earthquake based around Cheviot in the South island shook the capital, early Nov. 13, 2016. According to reports, a 7.4. earthqauke has hit New Zealand overnight, triggering a tsunami warning for the east coast of the country. (Photo: Ross Setford, European Pressphoto Agency)

The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

A magnitude 7.5 earthquake centred north of Christchurch has jolted New Zealand and triggered a two-metre Tsunami. The severe quake, located 15 km north-east of Culverden at a depth of 15km, struck just after midnight on Sunday and was felt throughout the country. A two-metre tsunami has been generated in response to the earthquake and the first wave arrived at Kaikoura on the South Island just before 2am on Monday local time, according to the NZ Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management. The Civil Defence has warned further waves will arrive at Chatham islands immediately and people on the country's east coast have been ordered to move to high ground for the next several hours.

The magnitude 7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. 7:25 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand have downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following a powerful earthquake. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude 7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114021500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="wfsb-06f00731ab382f96fcdf8a22c0a4c4df" duplicate="AP-7a93d6e8b3116a03f115a544dd4ef91e"><title>The Latest: New Zealand downgrades tsunami warnings</title><link>http://www.wfsb.com/story/33696624/the-latest-new-zealand-downgrades-tsunami-warnings</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) - The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 7:25 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand have downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following a powerful earthquake.

The magnitude-7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides.

The magnitude-7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113200600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="newson6-06f00731ab382f96fcdf8a22c0a4c4df" duplicate="AP-7a93d6e8b3116a03f115a544dd4ef91e"><title>The Latest: New Zealand downgrades tsunami warnings</title><link>http://www.newson6.com/story/33696624/the-latest-new-zealand-downgrades-tsunami-warnings</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) - The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 7:25 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand have downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following a powerful earthquake.

New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defense and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country's entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground.

"That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake's epicenter, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. "Everyone seems OK here," he told RNZ. "There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened." Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. RNZ said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. In 2011, Israeli backpacker Ofer Mizrahi, 24, was one of over 180 people killed in a 6.3 earthquake in the same city. The backpacker's friends, who were traveling with him, informed his parents that he was killed when a boulder smashed into a car he was traveling in. Mizrahi was reportedly with three other Israelis at the time when the earthquake struck. Local news reports claimed that when Mizrahi's body was recovered, he was found with at least five passports. The circumstances of his death spurred reports that he was part of a ring of Israeli spies trying to hack New Zealand's national information network. Shemi Tzur, Israel's Ambassador to New Zealand at the time, dismissed the charge as "science fiction."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113145600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="news-yahoo-61ff31e9c85b4d354f55c9709554e053"><title>The Latest: New Zealand quake causes damage to roads</title><link>https://www.yahoo.com/news/latest-powerful-zealand-quake-causes-local-tsunami-131509428.html?ref=gs</link><description>A large fissure runs along Kaikoura Road about two hours north of Christchurch Monday, Nov. 14, 2016, after a major earthquake struck New Zealand's south Island early Monday.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand (all times local): 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113173900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="express-68dd537436af38ae90dbba1e9fa3fc7e"><title>One DEAD as first tsunami waves hit Kaikoura after 7.8 magnitude earthquake in New Zealand</title><link>http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/731764/Christchurch-earthquake-New-Zealand-north-island-richter-scale?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+daily-express-news-showbiz+%28Daily+Express+%3A%3A+News+%2F+Showbiz+Feed%29</link><description>| UPDATED: 17:52, Sun, Nov 13, 2016 SIMON OSBORNE Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region that bore the epicentre of the quake, some 91 km northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T18:53+0100</pubDate><source url="http://feeds.feedburner.com/daily-express-news-showbiz" country="GB">express</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>express-68dd537436af38ae90dbba1e9fa3fc7e</guid><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="Defence[3];

The Civil Defence Ministry warned that waves of up to five metres remained a risk for several hours, and confirmed the first waves of the tsunami had already hit the east coast of the South Island. Police have also confirmed two people have died in the natural disaster so far, one believed to have been from a heart attack.

GETTY A powerful earthquake has struck New Zealand sparking fears of a tsunami A spokesman siad: “One casualty has been reported at a collapsed property in Kaikora. Police are also trying to access a property at Mt Lyford north of Christchurch where a further casualty has been reported, which is believed to be a fatality.” People living in coastal areas have been advised to head for higher ground or get as far inland as possible. Officials also warned people to stay away from at-risk areas and not to return until the all-clear had been given.

Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence, said: "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before." St John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicentre of the quake. Incident Controller Dion Rosario said: "We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura. However, at this stage we do not have specifics." Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in Kaikoura. A spoikesman for the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management said: "The first tsunami waves have arrived but it is too early to know what damage or casualties there may have been. "Further waves should be expected and may be larger or more dangerous. New Zealanders should stay off the beaches, stay out of the water, and not go sightseeing. "People are encouraged to keep themselves informed and follow the advice of their local civil defence groups as the situation develops around the country. "If you have been advised to evacuate, follow your local tsunami evacuation procedures." TWITTER Damage caused by the 7.4 earthquake near Chtistchurch Related videos

The US Geological Survey said the earthquake hit 57 miles to the north-east of Christchurch just after midnight local time. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island and a 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. There were no immediate reports of serious damage from the latest quake which was felt across a large area but a tsunami could pose a greater threat to life and property. TWITTER The Christchurch earthquake was felt over a wide area A resident in Takaka, near the top of the South Island, told Radio New Zealand: "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out." A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 105 miles north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries. The latest New Zealand quake comes just over a week after

Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake's epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. He said: "Everyone seems okay here. There's a lot of debris in houses but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened." Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Wellington City Council has received multiple reports of significant damage.

 reported. CricInfo An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the US Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country's entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two metres (six feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (six feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand's Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. USGS said the quake was centered 91km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake's epicenter, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. "Everyone seems OK here," he told RNZ. "There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened." Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said residents had been evacuating the city's southern coastal suburbs due to the tsunami threat and there had been reports of structural damage to several buildings. "We've got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves," he told RNZ. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113155400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="krmg-64bdde1c728d2cdc399cc012047d5bf5" duplicate="dailyjournal-3ba68255dc56238300c1c39c63262407"><title>The Latest: New Zealand capital urges workers to stay home</title><link>http://www.krmg.com/ap/ap/top-news/the-latest-powerful-new-zealand-quake-causes-local/ns7X4/</link><description>The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake.

The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch.

Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away.

SINGAPORE - No Singaporeans are reported to be affected by the earthquake in the New Zealand city of Christchurch, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) on Monday (Nov 14). "For now, we are not aware of any Singaporeans in need of consular assistance following the earthquake," MFA said. An earthquake of 7.8 magnitude struck near Christchurch on Sunday (Nov 13). At least two people were killed, according to reports.

The New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management (MCDEM) has issued a tsunami warning and land threat from East Cape to Southland, including Wellington, Marlborough Sounds/Tasman Bay and the Chatham Islands. People near the eastern coast of South Island have also been advised by MCDEM to immediately move to high ground or inland as far as possible.

According to the New Zealand authorities, the first tsunami waves have arrived. Further waves should be expected and these could be larger or more dangerous. MCDEM has warned people to stay off the beaches, stay out of the water and not go sightseeing. People are advised to keep themselves informed and follow the advice of the local civil defence groups. Information can be found through the local radio and TV stations. More details can be found MFA said those in need of emergency assistance may contact the High Commission in Wellington, New Zealand at +64-4-470-0850, or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Singapore at +65-6379-8800.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114022700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="metro-uk-9aa31c94bc77cc69c686a3458a203a75"><title>At least two confirmed dead in New Zealand earthquake</title><link>http://metro.co.uk/2016/11/13/at-least-two-confirmed-dead-in-new-zealand-earthquake-6255959/</link><description>The magnitude-7.8 earthquake hit the city of Christchurch just after midnight today (Picture: AP) At least two people were killed after a powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch this morning, Prime Minister John Key has said.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

The magnitude-7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch.

In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch.

Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. New Zealand's national civil defence organisation, which issued the warning, advised people to move inland and to higher ground. The statement said tsunami activity could continue for several hours.

A tsunami is possible. Anyone near the east coast of the south island should move to high ground MCDEM (@NZcivildefence) November 13, 2016 However, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center did not issue a warning following the quake and there were no immediate reports of casualties. 

"Based on all available data a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami is not expected," the center reported. The New Zealand government's GeoNet website said the quake was "felt widely" throughout the country and warned citizens to watch out for aftershocks. Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, said the shaking lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP. She said there was no sign of damage on her street and the power was still on, adding that she was worried about towns and villages closer to the epicentre. "We're getting aftershocks at the moment. We're going to stock up on water supplies just in case." In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported. In February 2011, a 6.3 earthquake left 185 people dead in the South Island city of Christhurch. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called "Ring of Fire", and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113140000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="standard-1300610993aca5414f77e1cd36721af0"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Two dead after South Island is hit by tsunami after powerful tremor</title><link>http://www.standard.co.uk/news/world/new-zealand-earthquake-powerful-tremor-shakes-south-island-a3394281.html</link><description>Two people have died after a powerful earthquake struck

According to US Geological Survey, the earthquake generated a tsunami that hit the northeast coast of the South Island. All members of the Pakistan cricket team are safe in Nelson after an earthquake of high intensity hit New Zealand, team manager Wasim Bari has confirmed,

"Some of the boys were in prayer, some were watching the India-England Test on TV when we felt the windows shake. The whole room began to shake. We were on the sixth and seventh floor, and evacuated immediately. The hotel staff was very helpful. We are all safe," the former Pakistan wicketkeeper said.

Women cricket team skipper Sana Mir tweeted about the safety of the players in New Zealand. Tsunami warning. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country's entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake's epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. RNZ said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113151900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="independent-UK-8ae05c2568e6738505c0fce757a76775"><title>Two killed in New Zealand earthquake</title><link>http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/australasia/new-zealand-earthquake-today-tsunami-warning-aftershocks-christchurch-pacific-live-latest-updates-a7414776.html</link><description>Two people are confirmed to have died after a powerful earthquake in New Zealand caused a series of aftershocks, causing damage to buildings and leading residents to evacuate their homes for higher ground to avoid tsunami waves.

Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck the country's South Island just after midnight, with the epicentre recording 57 miles north-northeast of the eastern city of Christchurch.

Shortly afterwards a two-metre high tsunami was recorded in Kaikoura on the east coast of the South Island, with smaller but “very dangerous” waves later hitting the coast near Wellington, according to local weather site The Civil Defence authority advised South Island residents living on the east coast and those living on the nearby Chatham Islands to move to higher ground. A 6.2 earthquake later struck northwestern Argentina , but there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

Helicopters with medical and rescue personnel are being sent near the epicentre of the quake, where it opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. St John's Ambulance Dion Rosario said in a statement: “We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura. “However, at this stage we do not have specifics.” In Wellington, 200 kilometres from where the earthquake struck, residents said the shaking went on for about three minutes, and was followed by a number of strong aftershocks.

New Zealand Police said in a statement: “A number of aftershocks of a lesser magnitude have been experienced up and down the country. Police continue to remind members of the public to drop, cover and hold during any subsequent earthquake.

“There is a tsunami warning to the east coast of the North and South Islands. Police advise the public in these areas to get to higher ground or go as far inland as possible. Wellington residents should avoid the beaches and waterways.” The earthquake comes five years after a 6.3 quake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. It was said to be one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage.

Memorial plaques mark the spot where each of the 2011 quake victims died, and the city's cathedral in the main square has been left half-ruined after it was deemed too dangerous to repair. The Antipodean country lies on the volatile Ring of Fire on the Pacific rim which is known for erupting volcanoes and frequent seismic disturbances.

The earthquake hit the country's South Island at around 12am on Monday (11:02 GMT Sunday), with the epicentre recorded 57 miles north-northeast of Christchurch on the east coast of New Zealand's South Island.

A large earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 struck northwestern Argentina hour later, but there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

Local media reported emergency services were searching for a missing person in a collapsed house. A second person who had been thought missing in the building was found alive. The roads to Kaikoura were cut and telephone services in the area were down, but ambulance services said they were trying to get their command unit to the town from Christchurch because of injury reports.

© Marty Melville, AFP | A tsunami warning alert is seen on a notice board above State Highway 1 in Wellington early on November 14, 2016 following an earthquake centred some 90 kilometres (57 miles) north of New Zealand's South Island city of Christchurch. Text by Latest update : 2016-11-13. NEWS WIRES An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the U.S. Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami.

’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two metres (6 feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand’s Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. quake USGS said the quake was centred 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said residents had been evacuating the city’s southern coastal suburbs due to the tsunami threat and there had been reports of structural damage to several buildings. “We’ve got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves,” he told RNZ. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. (REUTERS) Date created : 2016-11-13.

New Zealand's Civil Defence issued a tsunami alert, warning of the risk of destructive waves along the country's entire east coast and advising residents on the east coast of the North, South and Chatham Islands to seek higher ground immediately. Waves of up to three to five metres could be possible in areas close to the epicentre for up to two hours, the warning said. The powerful quake hit just after midnight (local time), with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings more than 200 kilometres away in the capital, Wellington. The USGS revised up its original measurement of the quake's strength from magnitude-7.4 to 7.8.

Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre had already been recorded in the North Canterbury region of the South Island.

"That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand.

Civil Defence tweeted: "The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours." The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometres north of the quake's epicentre, power was knocked out in some places, with windows smashed and chimneys damaged. Radio New Zealand said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess for damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as magnitude-6.1.

Earthquake 'scarier than normal' ABC journalist Tom Maddocks was staying in Christchurch, the biggest city on the South Island, at the time and was evacuated from a hostel in the area. He said the coastal suburb of New Brighton, some 10 kilometres from Christchurch, had been evacuated.

Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake's epicentre, said officials had gone door-to-door evacuating residents. "Everyone seems OK here. There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened," he told Radio New Zealand. Australian journalist Gemma Snowdon, who is living just north of Christchurch, told the ABC the tremor, which New Zealand's Geonet initially measured at magnitude-6.6 before revising it up to 7.5, woke her from her sleep.

"I ran outside with my housemates and we quickly realised what was going on and the ground just shook and shook and shook and it seemed never-ending," she said.

Snowdon said the situation was "scarier than normal". "I have been hearing sirens and alarms going off throughout the city. I think everyone is a bit shaken up by this," she said. "[Earthquakes] are a common occurrence but this one was particularly long and protracted." The quake struck at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometres. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire", an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113165300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="wwlp-37acce1579d22202f7cf1ecc9782a3ca" duplicate="AP-7a93d6e8b3116a03f115a544dd4ef91e"><title>The Latest: New Zealand downgrades tsunami warnings</title><link>http://wwlp.com/ap/the-latest-powerful-new-zealand-quake-causes-local-tsunami/</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 7:25 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand have downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following a powerful earthquake.

The magnitude-7.8 quake struck the South Island early Monday, just after midnight. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later Monday morning that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings. 7:10 a.m. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand’s capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city’s suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand’s South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand’s worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113195400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="wivb-3e083656ed0fdd42c0c8e2c171c61636" duplicate="AP-7a93d6e8b3116a03f115a544dd4ef91e"><title>The Latest: New Zealand downgrades tsunami warnings</title><link>http://wivb.com/ap/the-latest-powerful-new-zealand-quake-causes-local-tsunami/</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 7:25 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand have downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following a powerful earthquake.

The jolt, one of the most powerful ever recorded in the quake-prone South Pacific nation, hit just after midnight Monday near the South Island coastal town of Kaikoura. As dawn broke there was scant information from many nearby rural villages, which were isolated by landslips and fractured telephone communications as strong aftershocks continued. Prime Minister John Key confirmed two people had died and said “we cannot rule out” that number will rise. Police were trying to reach the scene of one fatality at a remote property 150 kilometres (93 miles) north of Christchurch while another person died in a historic homestead which collapsed at Kaikoura. “At this point we are unable to give precise details of what caused those fatalities,” Key said, adding that communication problems made it difficult to give an accurate assessment. With roads blocked, a helicopter was taking a search and rescue team to Kaikoura, where aerial television footage showed huge landslips and at least one home destroyed. Key said military choppers had also been drafted in check the scale of destruction. “As soon as we can get a much better assessment of the actual damage then we can work out the next steps,” he said. Soon after the earthquake, tsunami warning sirens were activated in South Island coastal towns and along the east coast of the North Island, with police and emergency workers going door to door to evacuate seaside properties. The ministry of civil defence, responsible for emergency management in new zealand, initially warned of a “destructive tsunami” with waves of up to five metres (16 feet). The first waves were measured around two metres and four hours later authorities downgraded the warning, but said risks remained. The earthquake struck at 12:02am Monday (1102 GMT Sunday) and was 23 kilometres deep, the US Geological Survey said, putting the epicentre in the South Island’s North Canterbury region. It ignited painful memories for residents in nearby Christchurch, which was devastated five years ago by a 6.3 tremor which killed 185 people. “It was massive and really long,” Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, told AFP, describing the powerful quake as the biggest since the 2011 tremor which was one of new zealand’s deadliest disasters. “We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up.” Earthquake engineer Ken Elwood from the University of Auckland said the impact of the latest quake would have been much worse had it hit at lunchtime, like the Christchurch one. “When it happens in the middle of the day it’s a very different story,” he told TVNZ. “People were safe in their homes, homes might get damaged but they’re safer for the people inside and that’s certainly the blessing of this earthquake.” The main tremor was followed by a series of strong aftershocks, with reports of damaged houses. ‘Significant shake’ Marie Black, a local councillor who lives about 50 kilometres north of Christchurch, told the new zealand Herald there were reports of damage to buildings in the North Canterbury region. “It was a significant shake, I have felt several aftershocks and it is very unnerving,” she said. In the capital Wellington, where shattered glass littered inner city streets, rail and bus services were cancelled and people were advised not to commute to work Monday. Wellington resident Kevin Simonsen, 72, said he had never experienced such a strong quake. “It was a rolling motion, very violent,” he told AFP. “It just went on and on. You could hear the building creak. It was quite scary and eerie.” Mount Victoria, the city’s highest point, was choked with cars in the early hours as residents from low-lying areas sought refuge from a possible tsunami. “I just packed up my kids and went up to my mum’s,” Kylie Goodman said. In several cities guests were forced to evacuate hotels when the quake hit, including Nelson, about 200 kilometres from the quake centre where the touring Pakistan cricket team are staying. “Some of the boys were in prayer, some were watching the India-England Test on TV when we felt the windows shake,” team manager Wasim Bari told ESPNcricinfo. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called “Ring of Fire”, and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113225500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="abcactionnews-3b98c733351a40704aa103eebd38e63f" duplicate="wkbw-3b98c733351a40704aa103eebd38e63f"><title>South Pacific struck by powerful earthquake A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday.</title><link>http://www.abcactionnews.com/news/national/south-pacific-struck-by-powerful-earthquake</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.8 quake.

In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometers (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. The powerful earthquake struck New Zealand’s South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides.

In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak.

The quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand’s worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage.

The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck just after midnight in a mostly rural area close to the city of Christchurch, but appeared to be more strongly felt in Wellington, the capital, more than 120 miles to the north. Residents said the shaking went on for about three minutes, and was followed by a number of strong aftershocks. The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand's emergency call number, 111, police reported. Near the epicenter, it opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. Authorities in Wellington were urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday. City officials said that some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress, and that the quake would likely have caused a mess in some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. At daybreak, several hours after the quake struck, there still were no reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch. Still, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. Although Monday's quake was stronger, its epicenter was much farther from any major urban areas. Location, depth and other factors beyond magnitude all contribute to how destructive an earthquake can be. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Information from the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center indicated that the tsunami waves could be highest around the South Island town of Kaikoura, at about 5 feet. The Hawaii-based center said it did not expect the quake to generate a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows were smashed and some chimneys collapsed. The quake was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The USGS initially estimated that the earthquake had a magnitude of 7.4 before revising it to 7.8. It said the quake struck at a depth of 14 miles, after initially putting the depth at 6 miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113190300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="WashingtonPost-18dc516b415cf86dc7e2c5545cc5b55c"><title>The Latest: Powerful New Zealand quake causes local tsunami</title><link>https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/the-latest-powerful-new-zealand-quake-causes-local-tsunami/2016/11/13/563e5cde-a9a3-11e6-8f19-21a1c65d2043_story.html</link><description>A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck the south island of New Zealand and triggered a tsunami alert for the entire coast of the country.

The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck just after midnight in a mostly rural area close to the city of Christchurch, but appeared to be more strongly felt in Wellington, the capital, more than 120 miles to the north. Residents said the shaking went on for about three minutes, and was followed by a number of strong aftershocks. Speaking about six hours after the quake struck, Prime Minister John Key said he was unable to give further information on the fatalities until authorities had confirmed all the details. He said officials had no reason to believe the death toll would rise. "On the very best information we have at the moment, we think it's only likely to be two. But of course there are isolated parts of the country which we don't have perfect eyes on, so we can't be 100 percent sure," he said. Key said that crews would better be able to assess the damage during the day. He said officials had decided not to declare a national emergency because the nation's regions were able to adequately cope with the situation. He said waves of about 7 feet had hit the coast but the tsunami threat had since been downgraded to coastal warnings. The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand's emergency call number, 111, police reported. Near the epicenter, it opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. Authorities in Wellington were urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday. City officials said that some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress, and that the quake would likely have caused a mess in some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. At daybreak, several hours after the quake struck, there still were no reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch. Still, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. Although Monday's quake was stronger, its epicenter was much farther from any major urban areas. Location, depth and other factors beyond magnitude all contribute to how destructive an earthquake can be. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. Information from the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center indicated that the tsunami waves could be highest around the South Island town of Kaikoura, at about 5 feet. The Hawaii-based center said it did not expect the quake to generate a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows were smashed and some chimneys collapsed. The quake was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The USGS initially estimated that the earthquake had a magnitude of 7.4 before revising it to 7.8. It said the quake struck at a depth of 14 miles, after initially putting the depth at 6 miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113210500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="themirror-285088c504927bcf6ed892b15c29f64f"><title>Tsunami warning: New Zealanders told move to higher ground after powerful earthquake hits Christchurch</title><link>http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/powerful-earthquake-hits-christchurch-new-9251440</link><description>An earthquake of magnitude 7.4 has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand, triggering a tsunami warning.

It struck in the early hours of Monday morning in Christchurch which was reduced to rubble by an earthquake just five years ago. The New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency management tweeted: "Situation has changed - tsunami is possible.

Today's earthquake measured more powerfully on the Richter scale than 2011's 6.3 quake. Power lines and phone lines are said to be down, including emergency lines to police, fire and ambulance services. Others reported that the emergency number 111 was back up and running. Anthropology student Heather McMillan said her home shook “like jelly” when the earthquake struck as she was getting ready for bed, and she feared it was going to collapse. The 20-year-old told Mirror Online: “When it started it was really big so I thought it was going to be short but it kept going for a good few minutes and felt like the second floor was going to fall down.

That was a huge earthquake. Got evacuated out of our apartment building. Hope everyone affected by it are safe! Kavithya (@SSKavimyah)

6.something magnitude #earthquake did it's damage I'm on the 7th floor! I'm rekt! Alysa Jane (@alysajaney) November 13, 2016 “Very quickly you realise it's an earthquake because I’ve felt one before. “But this was a different level. I honestly thought it was going to last for 20 minutes or longer.

“I live in the second storey of a flat and it was like a rolling feeling from the house. The aftershocks have felt like we're a ship at sea. ”She said the tremor lasted around five minutes but it felt like forever". She added: “I think it's one of those moments when you start thinking whether this is it? Like the big earthquake that's going to put Christchurch back into the place it was five years ago?” Heather said her flat did not suffer any damage, but her parents in Wellington were without power and had some belongings damaged as the earthquake shook their home. Patsy Knight told Mirror Online that aftershocks were still continuing 20 minutes after the quake. She said: "We're in Wellington and absolutely terrifying. Smashed glass everywhere, but thankfully all good. Not much sleep happening though, kids with us. Aftershocks continuously happening!" Chef Tim Owen, 29, was at home in Halswell, a satellite town of Christchurch, when the earthquake hit. He said: "It went on for like a minute or so, which is quite long. It felt like swaying and like a wave. "We just got up from the couch and stood in the doorway. It does make you feel very anxious not knowing if it will get worse or when it may stop." The earthquake was felt as far away as Auckland, Wellington, Nelson and Hamilton. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". He told Stuff.co.NZ : "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it. "The cat has disappeared and the neighbours dog is upset."

Kaitlin in Wellington posted a picture of her home, showing her possessions strewn around the room following the earthquake. In Nelson, resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". She said it had a much longer, more rolling motion than a 2010 Canterbury quake she experienced. Davis said she was surprised there appeared to be no damage to the house. "It really shook for a long time." The quake hit 57 miles north east of the city, which is on the east coast of the country's South Island. Others took to social media to show pictures and videos of their devastated homes. Alysa Jane tweeted: "6.something magnitude earthquake did it's damage I'm on the 7th floor! I'm rekt!" Kavithya wrote: "That was a huge earthquake. Got evacuated out of our apartment building. Hope everyone affected by it are safe!" Cynthia Drescher, from Christchurch, said the earthquake lasted for three to four minutes. She said she was evacuated to a building rebuilt after it was destroyed in the 2011 quake. Cynthia described aftershocks she felt as "freaky". Well-wishers from around the world sent their best wishes to the stricken country which has been devastated by earthquakes over the years. Arnoud Beckers, from Holland, wrote: "Hope everybody is safe in the beautiful city of Christchurch. Again hit by a huge quake." Islanders could face aftershocks which often follow the main quake. They can cause further building damage and falling debris. A Christchurch Police spokeswoman told Stuff.co.NZ they hadn't received any calls about damage. "Just be careful on the roads in case there's damage," she said. St John Ambulance says they have no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre (EOC)", they said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113132600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="reuters-fa6db94fbc46ddb702ce4e3a9f6c051e" duplicate="cyprus-mail-0fa90a7fb6ea11a9eb935350b10c9276"><title>UPDATE 6-Quake strikes New Zealand, thousands flee homes as tsunami hits</title><link>http://www.reuters.com/article/us-quake-newzealand-idUSKBN1380CI</link><description>WELLINGTON A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the U.S. Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami.

Thousands of people along New Zealand's east coast fled their homes to head for higher ground as emergency services warned of destructive waves of up to five meters (yards) in some areas. "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before." St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicenter of the quake, 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, where a 6.3 quake in 2011 killed 185 people, on New Zealand's South Island. "We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura," Dion Rosario, St John Incident Controller, said in a statement. "However, at this stage we do not have specifics." Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. The first tremor and a series of aftershocks were felt throughout most of New Zealand. There were no immediate reports of deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout overlooking the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. "We've got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves," he told Radio New Zealand. Other residents reported glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. A spokeswoman for the city council of Christchurch, where tsunami sirens rent the air, said its "emergency operations center" was active. Several roads around the South Island were closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. New Zealand's Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier.

WELLINGTON (Reuters) - A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the U.S. Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami. Thousands of people along New Zealand's east coast fled their homes to head for higher ground as emergency services warned of destructive waves of up to five meters (yards) in some areas. "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before." St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicenter of the quake, 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, where a 6.3 quake in 2011 killed 185 people, on New Zealand's South Island. "We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura," Dion Rosario, St John Incident Controller, said in a statement. "However, at this stage we do not have specifics." Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. The first tremor and a series of aftershocks were felt throughout most of New Zealand. There were no immediate reports of deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout overlooking the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. "We've got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves," he told Radio New Zealand. Other residents reported glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. A spokeswoman for the city council of Christchurch, where tsunami sirens rent the air, said its "emergency operations center" was active. Several roads around the South Island were closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. New Zealand's Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier.

Tess Prentice thought it was the 'end of the world' as her family were thrown out of their beds when a 7.8-magnitude earthquake wreaked havoc their house.

They intended to leave after collecting a few items from the home, which had been ruined in the quake. Walls had collapsed, holes in the roof appeared, the chimney fallen down and doors wrecked. Two people died after the massive earthquake struck New Zealand, sparking a tsunami warning and has leaving some towns cut-off.

The quake, located near Hanmer Springs in North Canterbury at a depth of 15km, struck minutes after midnight and more than 250 aftershocks have since rattled the country. Prime Minister John Key said two people were confirmed fatalities after the quake but it was not yet clear if both were as a direct result of the tremor. The quake comes almost six years after a destructive 6.3 earthquake that killed 185 people in Canterbury early in 2011.

Police have also confirmed two people have died in the natural disaster so far, one believed to have been from a heart attack. GETTY A powerful earthquake has struck New Zealand sparking fears of a tsunami A spokesman siad: “One casualty has been reported at a collapsed property in Kaikora. Police are also trying to access a property at Mt Lyford north of Christchurch where a further casualty has been reported, which is believed to be a fatality.” Prime Minister John Key added: "We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out." People living in coastal areas have been advised to head for higher ground or get as far inland as possible. Officials also warned people to stay away from at-risk areas and not to return until the all-clear had been given. TWITTER The Civil Defence Ministry warned that waves of up to five metres remained a risk.

Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence, said: "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before." St John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicentre of the quake. TWITTER Buildings were damaged and glass shattered during the quake Incident Controller Dion Rosario said: "We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura. However, at this stage we do not have specifics." Auhtorites have expressed their concern for those in the coastal town of Kaikoura, which is popular with tourists, after it was cut off. Located near the epicentre, it appears to be one of the hardest hit areas, and officials are hoping to get a better understanding of the damage once the sun rises. GETTY Many citizens have been displaced by the earthquake A spokesman for the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management said: "The first tsunami waves have arrived but it is too early to know what damage or casualties there may have been. "Further waves should be expected and may be larger or more dangerous. New Zealanders should stay off the beaches, stay out of the water, and not go sightseeing. "People are encouraged to keep themselves informed and follow the advice of their local civil defence groups as the situation develops around the country. "If you have been advised to evacuate, follow your local tsunami evacuation procedures." TWITTER Damage caused by the 7.4 earthquake near Chtistchurch Related videos

The US Geological Survey said the earthquake hit 57 miles to the north-east of Christchurch just after midnight local time. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island and a 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. There were no immediate reports of serious damage from the latest quake which was felt across a large area but a tsunami could pose a greater threat to life and property. TWITTER The Christchurch earthquake was felt over a wide area A resident in Takaka, near the top of the South Island, told Radio New Zealand: "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out." A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 105 miles north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries.

There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management (MCDEM) issued a tsunami warning for the eastern coasts of North and South Islands, warning residents along the country’s entire east coast to seek higher ground. Shortly after that, Burwood Ward Councillor Glenn Livingstone wrote on Twitter that a “2m high tsunami” hit the town of Kaikoura and moved away from the coast. MCDEM warns the first wave may not be the largest, as tsunami activity is expected to continue for several hours. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand’s Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets. The main tremor was followed by a series of strong aftershocks and there were reports of damaged buildings in the small rural township of Cheviot near the epicentre. “It was massive and really long,” Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, told AFP, describing the powerful quake as the biggest since the deadly 2011 tremor. “We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up.” In a brief message the Prime Minister John Key tweeted: “I hope everyone is safe after the earthquake tonight.” The ambulance service said it did not receive any reports of quake-related injuries. However, the national civil defence organisation, which is in charge of New Zealand’s emergency management said a tsunami was possible. “The first wave activity may not be the most significant,” it said in a bulletin, adding tsunami activity would continue for several hours. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist with the GNS Science, said the government’s earthquake monitoring service, the quakes were close to the coast. “They’ve been quite large. We’ve also seen a signal on the tide gauge at Kaikoura which is up to one metre (three feet) so it’s reasonably significant, so people should take this seriously.” In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called “Ring of Fire”, and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114011500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="illawarramercury-c3b3c3594435c55bd618f2fe61d28658"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Hundreds of aftershocks pepper North and South islands</title><link>http://www.illawarramercury.com.au/story/4290968/new-zealand-earthquake-hundreds-of-aftershocks-pepper-north-and-south-islands/?cs=5</link><description>The deadly earthquake that struck 90 kilometres north of Christchurch on Sunday night has been followed by hundreds of aftershocks. , which monitors seismic activity in New Zealand, said: "We can say one thing with certainty: there will be more earthquakes to come in this area.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-14T02:29+0100</pubDate><source url="http://www.illawarramercury.com.au/news/" country="AT">illawarramercury</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>illawarramercury-c3b3c3594435c55bd618f2fe61d28658</guid><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="200" emm:trigger="epicentre[2];

About 10 hours after the huge quake hit, GeoNet had recorded 232 aftershock events. One of those tremors was of 6.1 magnitude. By 9am more than 250 shocks had been recorded. Caroline Little, a spokeswoman for GeoNet, told Fairfax Media that the agency was "pretty confident" the initial earthquake was two seismic events about 50 kilometres apart. It is the largest earthquake recorded in New Zealand since 2009. said: "It looks like we've got two separate but related quakes going on. Our reports indicate that the combination of these two quakes lasted two minutes, with the most severe shaking at around 50 seconds." "It's quite a complex quake," Ms Little said. "It looks like two events happening almost simultaneously."

The M7.5 looks like TWO separate earthquakes, which is why we are seeing aftershocks in two locations. More info to come. — GeoNet (@geonet) /div&gt; November 13, 2016 Geoscience Australia said that the seismic event released more than 50 times the amount of energy than the 2011 Christchurch earthquake that killed 185 people. Dan Jaksa is the senior duty seismologist for Geoscience Australia . He said it was unlikely there were two separate quakes but that, as the earth's crust ripped, seismologists can record movement at different locations. "We put a dot on a map and call it the epicentre and give it a number but of course it's more complex than that," he said. Mr Jaksa said an earthquake of this size had an impact zone of about 150 to 180 kilometres. "It's way too far away to affect Australia," he said.

UPDATE: Mag 7.9 South Island of New Zealand. 14 Nov 2016 00:03 (NZDT). Lat/Long -42.7 172.7. Depth 59km. Info is preliminary.— EarthquakesGA (@EarthquakesGA) /div&gt; November 13, 2016 "What is occurring is a rip through the earth's crust," he said. "From our measurements it seems this one started onshore about 15 kilometres underground and ruptured the crust from west to east in a slightly north-easterly direction." GeoNet released an initial report of expected likely scenarios. Scenario 1 (Very likely): a normal aftershock sequence over the next few months. This means gradually diminishing size and frequency of seismic events. Scenario 2 (Likely): Possible rupture earthquake of magnitude 6 in North Canterbury and/or offshore. Scenario 3 (Unlikely): Another large earthquake above magnitude 7 within a month in the Marlborough and Cook Strait regions. GeoNet measured the quake at a magnitude of 7.5, although the United States Geological Survey said it was of a 7.8 magnitude and Geoscience Australia said the event was of a 7.9 magnitude. "There are a number of ways we can look at an earthquake," Mr Jaksa said. He said GeoNet relied on measuring close readings, which can "saturate" the measurement devices causing what he called "clipping".

The first measurements from an earthquake are the "p-waves", which are compression waves travelling through the earth, much like sound waves. Mr Jaksa said these dispersion waves allow detection of a quake's location and an initial estimate of its size. Following the "p-waves" seismologists measure "s-waves", which are slower moving shear waves travelling perpendicular to the direction of the p-waves. Seismologists then measure even slower surface waves that shake the crust in rolling waves allowing a better understanding of the event.

Mr Jaksa said GeoNet relied on more localised measurements, whereas Geoscience Australia incorporated more longer-period waves. USGS uses a similar method, explaining why the US and Australian agencies have issued similar magnitudes for the event. He said the NZ measurement was more like the older Richter scale, which measured amplitudes of seismic waves. The current scales incorporate measurements of earth movement. Ms Little said that GeoNet's use of local stations gave it a better ability to locate the epicentre and determine whether it was one or two seismic events. "We're pretty confident it was two," she said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114022900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="dailyadvertiser-fb4315ec041507df0e0b09466766b712" duplicate="illawarramercury-c3b3c3594435c55bd618f2fe61d28658"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Hundreds of aftershocks pepper North and South islands</title><link>http://www.dailyadvertiser.com.au/story/4290968/new-zealand-earthquake-hundreds-of-aftershocks-pepper-north-and-south-islands/?cs=5</link><description>The deadly earthquake that struck 90 kilometres north of Christchurch on Sunday night has been followed by hundreds of aftershocks. , which monitors seismic activity in New Zealand, said: "We can say one thing with certainty: there will be more earthquakes to come in this area.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-14T03:53+0100</pubDate><source url="http://www.dailyadvertiser.com.au/news/" country="AT">dailyadvertiser</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>dailyadvertiser-fb4315ec041507df0e0b09466766b712</guid><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="200" emm:trigger="epicentre[2];

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the 7.4 magnitude quake. Advertisement. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake’s epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday’s quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the ‘‘Ring of Fire,’’ an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 23 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday and was felt as far away as Auckland. The US Geological Survey said it was magnitude 7.8 although the tremor was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6. 

"That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. "The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours," the ministry tweeted. It warned people to expect aftershocks and many had been felt with the largest a magnitude 5.6 tremor soon after the initial quake. There were no immediate reports of casualties. Stuff.co.nz said residents in Christchurch's coastal suburbs were evacuating and moving to higher ground. Hotels and occupied buildings in the CBD had been evacuated. Many people were standing around in the middle of the street, away from buildings, calling people to let them know they were okay. In Wellington, hundreds of people were on the streets as building alarms sounded and fire trucks and police cars headed to the CBD. Near Civic Square, hotel guests huddled together in bathrobes while they waited for their buildings to be cleared. Windows in some high-rise office buildings had smashed, while plaster and masonry appeared to have fallen down from some buildings, Stuff.co.nz said. St John Ambulance said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre", it said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." Fairfax New Zealand journalist Kirsty Lawrence was asleep in Palmerston North, on the North Island, when the earthquake struck. "I waited in bed for a moment but then it got louder and started growing in intensity," Ms Lawrence said. "I was straight up and under a doorway. All our cupboards starting banging in the kitchen and stuff was falling all over on my dresser and car alarms were going off. And I'm up in Palmerston North so reasonably far from it and it was still huge. It went for so long." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113143700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="brisbanetimes-6a1318a7fcd52b8506de1bc646c0c4fa" duplicate="theage-6a1318a7fcd52b8506de1bc646c0c4fa"><title>Strong magnitude 7.8 earthquake strikes near Christchurch, New Zealand</title><link>http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/world/strong-magnitude-78-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand-20161113-gsofib.html</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck 90 kilometres north of the city of Christchurch, New Zealand, cutting power to some parts and triggering a tsunami warning along the entire east coast.

In Wellington, hundreds of people were on the streets as building alarms sounded and fire trucks and police cars headed to the CBD. Near Civic Square, hotel guests huddled together in bathrobes while they waited for their buildings to be cleared. Windows in some high-rise office buildings had smashed, while plaster and masonry appeared to have fallen down from some buildings, Stuff.co.nz said. St John Ambulance said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre", it said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." Fairfax New Zealand journalist Kirsty Lawrence was asleep in Palmerston North, on the North Island, when the earthquake struck. "I waited in bed for a moment but then it got louder and started growing in intensity," Ms Lawrence said. "I was straight up and under a doorway. All our cupboards starting banging in the kitchen and stuff was falling all over on my dresser and car alarms were going off. And I'm up in Palmerston North so reasonably far from it and it was still huge. It went for so long." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113143700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="illawarramercury-0fdccfb35dde074ddb18c88d6d0bf191" duplicate="theherald-au-e719bbf5bdc13831dc0241e0de1becfa"><title>Two dead, widespread damage after major quake shakes New Zealand</title><link>http://www.illawarramercury.com.au/story/4289807/two-dead-widespread-damage-after-major-quake-shakes-new-zealand/?cs=4110</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck the South Island of New Zealand last night, killing two people and cutting power to some parts of the country.

The quake triggering a tsunami warning along the entire east coast, which was later downgraded. In discussing fatalities New Zealand Prime Minister John Key told reporters in Wellington that: "We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out." Key added that details of the casualties were still being confirmed. He said a military helicopter was being dispatched to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island. Tsunami gauges at Kaikoura, 180 kilometres north of Christchurch, had recorded "a sizeable tsunami wave of around 2.5 metres", weatherwatch.co.nz reported about three-and-a-half hours after the quake struck. "The tsunami gauges suggest perhaps an underwater landslide just off the Kaikoura coastline," weatherwatch said on its website. The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 23 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday and was felt as far away as Auckland.

The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management issued a tsunami warning for the South Island and later extended it for the entire east coast. The warning was later scaled back, reducing the area where such an event was likely to hit the coast. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. "The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours," the ministry tweeted.

The rest of the east coast would see one to three-metre waves. It warned people to expect aftershocks and many had been felt with the largest a magnitude 5.6 tremor soon after the initial quake. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. Sydney Morning Herald journalist Saimi Jeong was in a hotel in Christchurch when the tremors began. "I was in bed about to sleep when I heard the door start rattling. I thought someone was at the door trying to get in," she said. "Then I felt the tremor - the bed was shaking, the floor was shaking. That's when it struck me that it was an earthquake. "I could see the lamp and curtains shaking. It just kept going, and I wondered when it would finally stop."

Stuff.co.nz said residents in Christchurch's coastal suburbs were evacuating and moving to higher ground. Hotels and occupied buildings in the CBD had been evacuated. Many people were standing around in the middle of the street, away from buildings, calling people to let them know they were okay. In Wellington, hundreds of people were on the streets as building alarms sounded and fire trucks and police cars headed to the CBD. Near Civic Square, hotel guests huddled together in bathrobes while they waited for their buildings to be cleared. Windows in some high-rise office buildings had smashed, while plaster and masonry appeared to have fallen down from some buildings, Stuff.co.nz said. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. Fairfax New Zealand journalist Kirsty Lawrence was asleep in Palmerston North, on the North Island, when the earthquake struck. "I waited in bed for a moment but then it got louder and started growing in intensity," Ms Lawrence said. "I was straight up and under a doorway. All our cupboards starting banging in the kitchen and stuff was falling all over on my dresser and car alarms were going off.

The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck in a mostly rural area close to the city of Christchurch but appeared to be more strongly felt in the capital Wellington, more than 120 miles away.

The quake was followed by a number of strong aftershocks. It knocked out New Zealand's emergency call number, 111, for about 10 minutes, police reported. It caused items to fall from shelves and windows to break in Wellington, and forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1.50am and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The ministry had earlier sent out a message on Twitter saying there was no tsunami threat to the country. It then sent out another message - "situation has changed - tsunami is possible" - before reporting that a tsunami had, in fact, hit. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake brought back memories of a magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck the city in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people in one of New Zealand's worst disasters. Monday's quake was centred farther away from the one in 2011. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicentre, power was knocked out in some places and some windows were smashed and some chimneys collapsed. The quake was centred 57 miles north-east of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire", an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight. 5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand's South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113182900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="brownsvilleherald-961af97b51d51587b1e39a189102d203"><title>The Latest: New Zealand capital urges workers to stay home</title><link>http://www.brownsvilleherald.com/news/us_world/article_0cfec656-1d57-59ce-98ec-f9b0a870df23.html</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T20:17+0100</pubDate><source url="http://www.brownsvilleherald.com/search/?q=&amp;t=article&amp;l=25&amp;d=&amp;d1=&amp;d2=&amp;s=start_time&amp;sd=desc&amp;c[]=news*&amp;f=rss" country="US">brownsvilleherald</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>brownsvilleherald-961af97b51d51587b1e39a189102d203</guid><category emm:rank="3" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="defense[1]; civil[1]; ">CivilProtection_general</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="110" emm:trigger="destroying[1]; injuries[2]; earthquake[5]; tsunami[1]; collapsed[1]; ">NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="152" emm:trigger="earthquake[5]; tsunami[1]; ">CPSI-NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="earthquake[5]; damage[5]; magnitude-7[2]; quake[6]; disasters[1]; magnitude-6[1]; struck[6]; coast[1]; killing[1]; ">Earthquakes</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="Authorities[1]; authorities[1]; hundreds[1]; large[1]; forced[1]; ">mdmaseizure</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="55" emm:trigger="WELLINGTON[1]; Wellington[4]; New Zealand[7]; geo[Christchurch];geo[Wellington];">NewZealand</category><emm:favicon>http://www.brownsvilleherald.com/favicon.ico</emm:favicon><emm:georss name="Christchurch:-:Canterbury:New Zealand" id="16844969" lat="-43.5235" lon="172.638" count="4" pos="1183,1273,1767,2006" class="2" iso="NZ" charpos="1183,1273,1767,2006" wordlen="12,12,12,12" score="74">Christchurch</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Wellington:Carterton District:Wellington:New Zealand" id="16848553" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="5" pos="60,324,781,1169,1893" class="1" iso="NZ" charpos="60,324,781,1169,1893" wordlen="10,10,10,10,10" score="575">Wellington</emm:georss><emm:fullgeo name="New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand" id="169" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="7" pos="12,72,137,193,685,1378,1463" class="-1" iso="NZ" charpos="12,72,137,193,685,1378,1463" wordlen="11,11,11,11,11,11,11" score="7">New Zealand</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Wellington:Division No.  8:Manitoba:Canada" id="303700008" lat="54.926272934445" lon="-97.433197709217" count="5" pos="60,324,781,1169,1893" class="10" iso="CA" charpos="60,324,781,1169,1893" wordlen="10,10,10,10,10" score="5">Wellington</emm:fullgeo><emm:tonality>-22</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="336">WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake.

In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the ``Ring of Fire,'' an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. (Source: AP)

The New Zealand government's GeoNet website said the quake was "felt widely" throughout the country and warned citizens to watch out for aftershocks. In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported. In February 2011, a 6.3 earthquake left 185 people dead in the South Island city of Christchurch. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called "Ring of Fire", and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year. (Source: AFP)

05:13 PM (IST) November 13, 2016 Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat from Monday's quake.

An earthquake has struck Christchurch. Initial reports from GeoNet say 6.6 Magnitude, 20 km south-east of Hanmer Springs. There is no tsunami threat from the earthquake.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113143800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="eastoregonian-1842e42082ae54d5ddbdf06e2f53dab0" duplicate="dailyjournal-3ba68255dc56238300c1c39c63262407"><title>The Latest: New Zealand capital urges workers to stay home</title><link>http://www.eastoregonian.com/the-latest-new-zealand-capital-urges-workers-to-stay-home-eo-ap-webfeeds-news-nation-worldcb054c58ccaa41f68fded31b858dcc1b</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T18:53+0100</pubDate><source url="http://www.eastoregonian.com/section/rssfeed/2119&amp;template=rss&amp;mime=xml" country="US">eastoregonian</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>eastoregonian-1842e42082ae54d5ddbdf06e2f53dab0</guid><category emm:rank="3" emm:score="200" emm:trigger="right[2]; ">Regulation</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="110" emm:trigger="destroying[1]; injuries[2]; earthquake[5]; tsunami[1]; collapsed[1]; ">NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="152" emm:trigger="earthquake[5]; tsunami[1]; ">CPSI-NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="earthquake[5]; damage[5]; magnitude-7[2]; quake[6]; disasters[1]; magnitude-6[1]; struck[6]; coast[1]; killing[1]; ">Earthquakes</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="Authorities[1]; authorities[1]; hundreds[1]; large[1]; forced[1]; ">mdmaseizure</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="55" emm:trigger="WELLINGTON[1]; Wellington[4]; New Zealand[7]; geo[Christchurch];geo[Wellington];">NewZealand</category><emm:favicon>http://www.eastoregonian.com/images/icons/favicon.ico</emm:favicon><emm:georss name="Christchurch:-:Canterbury:New Zealand" id="16844969" lat="-43.5235" lon="172.638" count="4" pos="1183,1273,1767,2006" class="2" iso="NZ" charpos="1183,1273,1767,2006" wordlen="12,12,12,12" score="74">Christchurch</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Wellington:Carterton District:Wellington:New Zealand" id="16848553" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="5" pos="60,324,781,1169,1893" class="1" iso="NZ" charpos="60,324,781,1169,1893" wordlen="10,10,10,10,10" score="575">Wellington</emm:georss><emm:fullgeo name="New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand" id="169" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="7" pos="12,72,137,193,685,1378,1463" class="-1" iso="NZ" charpos="12,72,137,193,685,1378,1463" wordlen="11,11,11,11,11,11,11" score="7">New Zealand</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Wellington:Division No.  8:Manitoba:Canada" id="303700008" lat="54.926272934445" lon="-97.433197709217" count="5" pos="60,324,781,1169,1893" class="10" iso="CA" charpos="60,324,781,1169,1893" wordlen="10,10,10,10,10" score="5">Wellington</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Share:Ifelodun:Kwara:Nigeria" id="17240748" lat="8.815532" lon="4.97789" count="1" pos="2199" class="5" iso="NG" charpos="2199" wordlen="5" score="1">Share</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Flag:Stone:Arkansas:United States" id="102847223" lat="35.819167" lon="-92.394167" count="1" pos="2539" class="4" iso="US" charpos="2539" wordlen="4" score="1">Flag</emm:fullgeo><emm:tonality>-20</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="447">WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand's capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake.

Officials from the National Tsunami Warning Center said early Sunday morning that it is no longer expecting a tsunami to strike the United States' Pacific coast following a powerful earthquake in New Zealand. As of 9 a.m. ET Sunday, no tsunami watches or warnings have been issued for the United States. The magnitude 7.8-earthquake struck near the Christchurch area of the South Island of New Zealand. The earthquake hit the island nation around 6 a.m. ET Sunday, or shortly after Midnight on Monday New Zealand time. Weather officials in New Zealand confirmed that a large wave hit the South Island around 8 a.m. ET. Officials were encouraging residents near the east coast of New Zealand to seek higher ground.

Officials from the National Tsunami Warning Center said early Sunday morning that it is no longer expecting a tsunami to strike the United States' Pacific coast following a powerful earthquake in New Zealand. As of 9 a.m. ET Sunday, no tsunami watches or warnings have been issued for the United States. The magnitude 7.8-earthquake struck near the Christchurch area of the South Island of New Zealand. The earthquake hit the island nation around 6 a.m. ET Sunday, or shortly after Midnight on Monday New Zealand time. Weather officials in New Zealand confirmed that a large wave hit the South Island around 8 a.m. ET. Officials were encouraging residents near the east coast of New Zealand to seek higher ground. Based off the Tsunami Center's forecast, the threat of a tsunami is supposed to be contained in the South Pacific. US Secretary of State John Kerry visited Christchurch this weekend on his way to Antarctica. He had reportedly left New Zealand shortly before the giant earthquake.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113170800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="reuters-12018e1d30b8611ad1587e669659133a" duplicate="cyprus-mail-1d5cb8d05193ac2ce724ab4b3cbebb16"><title>Strong earthquake strikes near Christchurch, New Zealand: USGS</title><link>http://www.reuters.com/article/us-quake-newzealand-idUSKBN1380CI?feedType=RSS&amp;feedName=worldNews&amp;utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Reuters%2FworldNews+%28Reuters+World+News%29</link><description>WELLINGTON An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck central New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT Sunday), the U.S. Geological Survey said, knocking out power in some areas and sending people into the streets of the capital Wellington.

New Zealand's Civil Defence issued a tsunami warning, advising residents on the South Island's east coast to seek higher ground. The quake was 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths.

WELLINGTON: A powerful 7.8 magniture earthquake struck central New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT Sunday), the U.S. Geological Survey said, generating a tsunami that hit the northeast coast of the South Island. New Zealand's Civil Defence told residents along the country's entire east coast, including Christchurch, Wellington and the Chatham Islands, to move inland or seek higher ground. It did not say how tall the first wave was but warned that areas on the east coast close to the epicenter could expect waves of up to five metres. "The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours," the Civil Defence said on Twitter. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. A tsunami warning seen on a notice board above State Highway 1 in Wellington. (Photo: AFP/Marty Melville) The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The latest tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. The Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There have been reports of structural damage to several buildings, said Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council. Several roads around South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. In the capital Wellington, residents said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets. Hotels and apartment buildings were evacuated. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude.

Singapore's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said for now, it is not aware of any Singaporeans in need of consular assistance following the earthquake. Those who need help should contact the High Commission in Wellington at +64 4 4700850, or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Singapore at +65 6379 8800.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113174400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="bbc-beac0415025ed99569b3735fcd8604a2"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Tsunami arrives after powerful tremor hits</title><link>http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-37967178</link><description>Image copyright USGS.

The tsunami arrived in the north-eastern coast about two hours later.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T14:19+0100</pubDate><source url="http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/rss.xml" country="GB">bbc</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>bbc-beac0415025ed99569b3735fcd8604a2</guid><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="hits[1]; hit[3]; destroyed[1]; Tsunami[1]; tsunami[4]; ">ET_TsunamiEN</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="epicentre[1]; ">ET_EarthquakeFR</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="170" emm:trigger="Tsunami[1]; tsunami[4]; ">ET_TsunamiFR</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="204" emm:trigger="Tsunami[1]; tsunami[4]; ">ET_TsunamiES</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="175" emm:trigger="injuries[1]; destroyed[1]; earthquake[6]; Tsunami[1]; volcanic[1]; tsunami[4]; ">NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="278" emm:trigger="earthquake[6]; Tsunami[1]; tsunami[4]; ">CPSI-NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="170" emm:trigger="Tsunami[1]; tsunami[4]; ">ET_TsunamiRO</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="civil defence[1]; Civil Defence[1]; ">CivilProtection</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="damaged[1]; killed[1]; epicentre[1]; magnitude[1]; damage[1]; earthquake[6]; quakes[1]; struck[2]; coast[2]; hit[3]; magnitude-7[2]; quake[2]; tremor[4]; ">Earthquakes</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="136" emm:trigger="Tsunami[1]; tsunami[4]; ">ET_TsunamiPT</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="46" emm:trigger="Wellington[2]; New Zealand[6]; geo[Christchurch];geo[Gisborne];geo[Wellington];">NewZealand</category><category>ECSRC_TIER01</category><category>EMMPanorama</category><category>EMMPanoramaRecent</category><category emm:trigger="(NaturalDisasters)injuries[1]; destroyed[1]; earthquake[6]; Tsunami[1]; volcanic[1]; tsunami[4]; ">NaturalDisasters-Spot</category><emm:favicon>http://www.bbc.co.uk/favicon.ico</emm:favicon><emm:entity id="299013" type="o" count="2" pos="167,1601" name="US Geological Survey">US Geological Survey</emm:entity><emm:entity id="111022" type="o" count="1" pos="1321" name="The Herald">The Herald</emm:entity><emm:georss name="Christchurch:-:Canterbury:New Zealand" id="16844969" lat="-43.5235" lon="172.638" count="4" pos="290,603,1074,1725" class="2" iso="NZ" charpos="290,603,1074,1725" wordlen="12,12,12,12" score="64">Christchurch</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Gisborne:-:East Cape:New Zealand" id="117513385" lat="-38.658741" lon="178.0159" count="1" pos="2104" class="3" iso="NZ" charpos="2104" wordlen="8" score="1">Gisborne</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Wellington:Carterton District:Wellington:New Zealand" id="16848553" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="2" pos="714,1382" class="1" iso="NZ" charpos="714,1382" wordlen="10,10" score="262">Wellington</emm:georss><emm:fullgeo name="New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand" id="169" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="6" pos="0,135,928,1623,2029,2260" class="-1" iso="NZ" charpos="0,135,928,1623,2029,2260" wordlen="11,11,11,11,11,11" score="6">New Zealand</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Wellington:Division No.  8:Manitoba:Canada" id="303700008" lat="54.926272934445" lon="-97.433197709217" count="2" pos="714,1382" class="10" iso="CA" charpos="714,1382" wordlen="10,10" score="2">Wellington</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Kaikoura:-:Nelson-marlborough:New Zealand" id="956370089" lat="-42.40181" lon="173.680099" count="1" pos="565" class="5" iso="NZ" charpos="565" wordlen="8" score="1">Kaikoura</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="North Island:North Island:North Island:Seychelles" id="32977" lat="-4.39290638646886" lon="55.2445766830582" count="1" pos="2120" class="-2" charpos="2120" wordlen="12" score="1">North Island</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Colgan:Divide:North Dakota:United States" id="36184311" lat="48.948029" lon="-103.626701" count="1" pos="1934" class="5" iso="US" charpos="1934" wordlen="6" score="1">Colgan</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Pacific:Pacific:Washington:United States" id="2363127" lat="46.5569043081024" lon="-123.700376986644" count="1" pos="1061" class="-3" iso="US" charpos="1061" wordlen="7" score="1">Pacific</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Chatham Islands:Yalaguina:Madriz:Nicaragua" id="553719466" lat="-44.0" lon="-176.5" count="1" pos="777" class="5" iso="NI" charpos="777" wordlen="15" score="1">Chatham Islands</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Ring:Linkoeping:Oestergoetlands Laen:Sweden" id="33818848" lat="58.413872" lon="15.93552" count="1" pos="962" class="5" iso="SE" charpos="962" wordlen="4" score="1">Ring</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Cheviot:Hamilton:Ohio:United States" id="170408695" lat="39.157701" lon="-84.613825" count="1" pos="1517" class="5" iso="US" charpos="1517" wordlen="7" score="1">Cheviot</emm:fullgeo><emm:tonality>-10</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="521">Image copyright USGS. A tsunami has hit after an earthquake struck New Zealand's South Island. The US Geological Survey said the magnitude-7.8 quake hit just after midnight (11:02 GMT on Sunday), some 95km (59 miles) from Christchurch. The tsunami arrived in the north-eastern coast about two hours later. Officials said the first waves may not be the largest, with tsunami activity possible for several hours. Residents were warned to head inland or for higher ground along the coast. A gauge at Kaikoura, 181 km (112 miles) north of Christchurch, measured a wave of two metres (6ft 5ins), according to

Smaller waves are said to be arriving in Wellington and other areas, the website said. Residents in the Chatham Islands, an archipelago 423 miles (680km) south-east of the mainland, were also being warned a wave would hit imminently by the civil defence. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. Image copyright Twitter Image copyright Twitter Image caption The Civil Defence Ministry has been dispensing advice over social media. The Herald newspaper said the tremor was felt all the way to Wellington, where sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. Early reports suggest some houses in Cheviot town, near the epicentre, have been damaged. But contrary to reports by the US Geological Survey, New Zealand's GeoNet suggests the earthquake may have been only a 6.6 magnitude tremor. A resident of Christchurch said the tremor lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP news agency. On Twitter, Hayley Colgan described it as "the the most terrifying earthquake I think I've felt in my 23 years in New Zealand". A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 169km (105 miles) north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries.

Emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicentre, power was knocked out in some places and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed.

There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake was centred 57 miles north-east of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey.

It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people.

Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centres. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire", an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

The jolt, one of the most powerful ever recorded in the quake-prone South Pacific nation, hit just after midnight Monday near the South Island coastal town of Kaikoura. As dawn broke there was scant information from many nearby rural villages, which were isolated by landslips and fractured telephone communications as strong aftershocks continued. Prime Minister John Key confirmed two people had died and said "we cannot rule out" that number will rise.

Police were trying to reach the scene of one fatality at a remote property 150 kilometres north of Christchurch while another person died in a historic homestead which collapsed at Kaikoura. "At this point we are unable to give precise details of what caused those fatalities," Mr Key said, adding that communication problems made it difficult to give an accurate assessment. With roads blocked, a helicopter was taking a search and rescue team to Kaikoura, where aerial television footage showed huge landslips and at least one home destroyed. Mr Key said military choppers had also been drafted in to check the scale of destruction. "As soon as we can get a much better assessment of the actual damage then we can work out the next steps," he said. Soon after the earthquake, tsunami warning sirens were activated in South Island coastal towns and along the east coast of the North Island, with police and emergency workers going door to door to evacuate seaside properties. The ministry of civil defence, responsible for emergency management in New Zealand, initially warned of a "destructive tsunami" with waves of up to five metres. The first waves were measured around two metres and four hours later authorities downgraded the warning, but said risks remained. The earthquake struck at 12:02am Monday (1102 GMT Sunday) and was 23 kilometres deep, the US Geological Survey said, putting the epicentre in the South Island's North Canterbury region. It ignited painful memories for residents in nearby Christchurch, which was devastated five years ago by a 6.3 tremor which killed 185 people. "It was massive and really long," Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, told AFP, describing the powerful quake as the biggest since the 2011 tremor which was one of New Zealand's deadliest disasters. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up." Earthquake engineer Ken Elwood from the University of Auckland said the impact of the latest quake would have been much worse had it hit at lunchtime, like the Christchurch one. "When it happens in the middle of the day it's a very different story," he told TVNZ. "People were safe in their homes, homes might get damaged but they're safer for the people inside and that's certainly the blessing of this earthquake." The main tremor was followed by a series of strong aftershocks, with reports of damaged houses. Marie Black, a local councillor who lives about 50 kilometres north of Christchurch, told the New Zealand Herald there were reports of damage to buildings in the North Canterbury region. "It was a significant shake, I have felt several aftershocks and it is very unnerving," she said. In the capital Wellington, where shattered glass littered inner city streets, rail and bus services were cancelled and people were advised not to commute to work Monday. Wellington resident Kevin Simonsen, 72, said he had never experienced such a strong quake. "It was a rolling motion, very violent," he told AFP. "It just went on and on. You could hear the building creak. It was quite scary and eerie." Mount Victoria, the city's highest point, was choked with cars in the early hours as residents from low-lying areas sought refuge from a possible tsunami. "I just packed up my kids and went up to my mum's," Kylie Goodman said. In several cities guests were forced to evacuate hotels when the quake hit, including Nelson, about 200 kilometres from the quake centre where the touring Pakistan cricket team are staying. "Some of the boys were in prayer, some were watching the India-England Test on TV when we felt the windows shake," team manager Wasim Bari told ESPNcricinfo. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called "Ring of Fire", and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.

Thousands of people along New Zealand’s east coast fled their homes to head for higher ground as emergency services warned of destructive waves of up to 5m in some areas. The rest of the country was advised to stay off beaches and away from the water. “The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been,” said Ms Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. “Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming (and) may be bigger than what has come before.” The waves were expected to last for hours. St John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicentre of the quake, 91km north-east of Christchurch, where a 6.3 quake in 2011 killed 185 people, on New Zealand’s South Island. “We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura,” Dion Rosario, St John Incident Controller, said in a statement. “However, at this stage we do not have specifics.” Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. One person was said to be missing while another was found alive. Six people from Waiau, another small town near the epicentre, could not be contacted. In a brief message, Prime Minister John Key tweeted that “I hope everyone is safe after the earthquake tonight.” The first tremor and multiple aftershocks were felt throughout most of New Zealand. There were no immediate reports of deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand (RNZ) from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand’s emergency call number, 111, said police. Telco provider Spark said its phone networks in parts of the South Island have been affected, saying that people should text, rather than call, if they can. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout overlooking the low-lying coastal city. “I’m just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am,” Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Other residents reported glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Mr Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. “We’ve got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves,” he told RNZ. Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee says Wellington city officials are advising people to stay away from the central business district while buildings are being checked. Rail services have been suspended in Wellington. There will not be replacement bus services today. The airports of Wellington, Auckland and Christchurch will remain open. Geonet, which monitors geological hazards in New Zealand, revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. Geonet duty seismologist Dr Anna Kaiser said the quake sequence was “looking complex” and may involve more than one fault, according to New Zealand media.

New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defense and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country's entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two meters (6 feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one meter (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand's Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. USGS said the quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake's epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. "Everyone seems OK here," he told RNZ. "There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened." Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said residents had been evacuating the city's southern coastal suburbs due to the tsunami threat and there had been reports of structural damage to several buildings. "We've got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves," he told RNZ. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113155600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="news-yahoo-a309357f483595fb299188c22ff41126" duplicate="cyprus-mail-c9c8831375f8e1cefa9b7f31fc680d2c"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after massive quake</title><link>https://www.yahoo.com/news/magnitude-7-4-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-zealand-112145924.html?ref=gs</link><description>By Charlotte Greenfield.

WELLINGTON (Reuters) - An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the U.S. Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country's entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two meters (6 feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one meter (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand's Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. USGS said the quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake's epicenter, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. "Everyone seems OK here," he told RNZ. "There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened." Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said residents had been evacuating the city's southern coastal suburbs due to the tsunami threat and there had been reports of structural damage to several buildings. "We've got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves," he told RNZ. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island.

"There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened." Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. RNZ said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude.

New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country's entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage.

The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island.

Waves of up to two metres (6 feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand's Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. USGS said the quake was centred 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island.

A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand.

Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said residents had been evacuating the city's southern coastal suburbs due to the tsunami threat and there had been reports of structural damage to several buildings. "We've got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves," he told RNZ. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113195100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="tampabay-756a97a797393ea9d31393bb4b068839"><title>2 killed, hundreds evacuated as strong quake strikes New Zealand</title><link>http://www.tampabay.com/news/world/2-killed-hundreds-evacuated-as-strong-quake-strikes-new-zealand/2302702</link><description>Officials from the Ministry of Civil Defense and Emergency Management warned people living near the coast to move inland to higher ground as tsunami waves raised seawater levels in some places by about 6 feet.

Officials in Wellington, New Zealand's capital, urged people to stay out of its central business district until the risk of damage to its buildings could be assessed. Prime Minister John Key said the earthquake had killed at least two people, but he offered no specifics, Reuters reported. "We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out," Key said of the death toll, speaking to reporters in Wellington. The New Zealand Herald reported that one of the deaths had resulted from a heart attack and that another had taken place on a historic homestead near the beach town of Kaikoura. The earthquake struck about 50 miles southwest of Kaikoura and 50 miles north of Christchurch. Elliot Fim, a regional official in that city, said there were no reports of damage, injuries or fatalities. The fire department was dealing with a large number of emergency calls seeking assistance. Fim said people living along about 200 miles of coastline had been evacuated. Some roadways and a building were reported damaged, but people had been able to move to high ground. A spokesman for the Wellington Region Emergency Management office said there were reports of minor damage in the capital city. Dan Jaksa, a duty officer from Geoscience Australia, said that if the small townships north of Christchurch did not have earthquake-resistant buildings, "it is going to be tough." Christchurch was struck in 2011 by an earthquake measuring 6.3 that devastated the city and killed 185 people. An additional 164 people were seriously injured. In Cheviot, a small town thought to be close to the epicenter of Sunday's earthquake, there were no reports of casualties. Jaksa said the earthquake had ruptured from west to east, with shocks moving toward Wellington, on the southern coast of New Zealand's North Island. "Let's hope this is it, and there's no more," he said. "Every time you go up one magnitude, say from 6.3 to 7.3, it is 32 times larger in terms of the energy released," Jaksa said. This earthquake was about 40 to 50 times as large as the one in Christchurch in 2011, he said. After the initial shock, which the U.S. Geological Survey measured at 7.8, there was an aftershock measuring 6.1, and then several more shocks, with three of those measuring in the high fives, Jaksa said. The earthquake occurred in the Hikurangi Trench, a subduction zone where one tectonic plate slides under another.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114021100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="dailytelegraph-fdc1fb49fe735b94a98305ad4c6b068c"><title>What quake means for tourists in NZ</title><link>http://www.escape.com.au/travel-advice/new-zealand-earthquake-what-should-tourists-do/news-story/e70f7a4188b79a9029828d5b481039cc?nk=b057486ed70e6dc42a18239f91060f90-1479087205</link><description>The quake struck near Hanmer Springs, 91km north of Christchurch, which is still recovering from the devastating earthquake of 2011.

A whale getting ready to dive off the coast of Kaikoura, New Zealand. More than 300 aftershocks have been recorded, including three over magnitude six. Deborah Gray, Tourism New Zealand general manager of corporate affairs says travellers should keep themselves informed and either contact their embassy or a local i-SITE information centre in New Zealand for support with travel arrangements. “For the most up to date information, visitors should listen to the radio or keep an eye on news websites and official social media channels. “Visitors who have concerns regarding future or current travel arrangements, should contact their tour, accommodation or transport operator,” she says. Natali Ball, director of comparetravelinsurance.com.au says tourists who have pre-purchased travel insurance have an advantage. “If you had purchased a comprehensive policy prior to the earthquake you’re in luck. This is generally what travel insurance is for — an unforeseen event. Travellers will be covered for accommodation, travel and meal expenses provided they purchased their policy prior to news of their insurer’s published cut-off date.” So what’s covered and what’s not? Ball outlines what travellers need to know.

Damage caused by the 7.8 earthquake at CentrePort in Wellington. Picture: Mark Mitchell. WHEN YOU ARE COVERED. If the earthquake was not a known event when you bought your policy you would be covered for: Cancellation (before you’ve left) : If you have not left yet, benefits will be paid if the earthquake forces you to cancel and claim for out-of-pocket expenses (provided the policy was purchased prior to the eruption). Cancellation (when already abroad): If you are within the earthquake zone you will be covered for travel and accommodation costs involved in moving you to new accommodation (if your booked accommodation is deemed uninhabitable). If your flights have been cancelled you would also be covered for any additional flight costs. Medical costs: Should you incur any injuries as a result of the earthquake, benefits would be paid towards your treatment. Emergency medical evacuation and repatriation: In the event that you require emergency evacuation or medical treatment that cannot be administered locally you would be evacuated to the nearest medical facility. Repatriation costs would also be covered in the event of your death.

WHEN YOU’RE NOT COVERED. • Known events : Once an event is known in the mass media you wouldn’t be eligible to buy cover for any losses incurred, or claim to cancel your trip. Insurers will set cut-off dates, after which you would no longer be eligible to purchase cover. Insufficient cover: Remember that Basic (or medical only) policies would cover you for any medical claims in regards to earthquakes, but would not cover travel delays, lost luggage or trip cancellation. Claim for any reason: There would be no cover if your existing travel plans were not directly affected by the earthquake or if you just had a change of heart about your trip. • Accommodation cover: Your place of residence would have to be uninhabitable for you to make a claim (i.e. the hotel not meeting expectations or a broken pool would not suffice).</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114023300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="mycentraloregon-b7067537a805612e1209c7ec9a1bcc91"><title>Magnitude-7.8 Earthquake Strikes New Zealand</title><link>http://www.mycentraloregon.com/2016/11/13/magnitude-7-8-earthquake-strikes-new-zealand/</link><description>U.S. Geological Survey (CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand) — A magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck the South Island of New Zealand shortly after midnight on Monday, according to the US Geological Survey.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.8 quake.

In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 23 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday and was felt as far away as Auckland. The US Geological Survey said it was magnitude 7.8 although the tremor was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6. 

"That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. "The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours," the ministry tweeted. It warned people to expect aftershocks and many had been felt with the largest a magnitude 5.6 tremor soon after the initial quake. There were no immediate reports of casualties. Stuff.co.nz said residents in Christchurch's coastal suburbs were evacuating and moving to higher ground. Hotels and occupied buildings in the CBD had been evacuated. Many people were standing around in the middle of the street, away from buildings, calling people to let them know they were okay. In Wellington, hundreds of people were on the streets as building alarms sounded and fire trucks and police cars headed to the CBD. Near Civic Square, hotel guests huddled together in bathrobes while they waited for their buildings to be cleared. Windows in some high-rise office buildings had smashed, while plaster and masonry appeared to have fallen down from some buildings, Stuff.co.nz said. St John Ambulance said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre", it said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." Fairfax New Zealand journalist Kirsty Lawrence was asleep in Palmerston North, on the North Island, when the earthquake struck. "I waited in bed for a moment but then it got louder and started growing in intensity," Ms Lawrence said. "I was straight up and under a doorway. All our cupboards starting banging in the kitchen and stuff was falling all over on my dresser and car alarms were going off. And I'm up in Palmerston North so reasonably far from it and it was still huge. It went for so long." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113143900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="abcactionnews-21a8865a6e77ab54b2d3e959009e6cfe"><title>South Pacific struck by powerful earthquake</title><link>http://www.abcactionnews.com/news/national/south-pacific-struck-by-powerful-earthquake</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.8 quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

Officials from the National Tsunami Warning Center said early Sunday morning that it is monitoring the potential for a tsunami to strike the United States' Pacific coast following a powerful earthquake in New Zealand. As of 8 a.m. ET Sunday, no tsunami watches or warnings have been issued for the United States. The magnitude 7.8-earthquake struck near the Christchurch area of the South Island of New Zealand. The earthquake hit the island nation around 6 a.m. ET Sunday, or 1 a.m. Monday New Zealand time. Weather officials in New Zealand confirmed that a large wave hit the South Island around 8 a.m. ET. US Secretary of State John Kerry visited Christchurch this weekend on his way to Antarctica. He had reportedly left New Zealand shortly before the giant earthquake.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometres (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington. New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometres (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centred 93 kilometres (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometres (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centres. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. The tsunami may arrive in the Eastern Coast of the North Island shortly. Move inland or to higher ground immediately. — MCDEM (@NZcivildefence) November 13, 2016 I hope everyone is safe after the earthquake tonight. @NZcivildefence is looking into the impact of the quake. Follow them to stay updated.

The quake hit just after midnight on Monday and was felt as far away as the country’s capital, the North Island city of Wellington, which lies several hundred kilometres away. Authorities said one person died in the town of Kaikoura on the eastern coast, which was cut off by road, before losing power and phone lines. Another died in Mount Lyford, a nearby ski resort. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key said the circumstances of the casualties were still being confirmed. "We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it [number of casualties] will rise, but we can't rule that out." There are reports that two women have been pulled alive from rubble in the ruins of Elms homestead, in Kaikoura. This earthquake was the largest recorded in New Zealand since the M7.8 Dusky Sound earthquake in 2009. According to a report by Geonet , which monitors seismic activity in New Zealand, says it appears that two

earthquakes struck within minutes of each. “Our reports indicate that the combination of these two quakes lasted two minutes, with the most severe shaking at around 50 seconds,” the report said. “It was widely felt throughout both the North and South Islands. It looks like one was a strike-slip and the other was a thrust fault.” The quake triggered a tsunami warning along the entire east coast, which was later downgraded. Aftershocks continued throughout Monday morning. Many schools and offices stayed closed while engineers checked the buildings, and ferries and trains were cancelled.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114020700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="trendnews-az-c5f012c203475665e185ae5fb1b1eaf3" duplicate="geo-tv-f2e3e8904c2dac3d3d1f38e9418e7659"><title>New Zealand PM says two dead in quake, dispatching emergency aid (UPDATE)</title><link>http://en.trend.az/world/other/2684557.html</link><description>23:13 (GMT+4) New Zealand Prime Minister John Key said two people were killed in a powerful earthquake that the struck the Pacific nation early on Monday, Reuters reported.

"We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out," Key told reporters in Wellington, adding that details of the casualties were still being confirmed. Key said a military helicopter was being dispatched to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicenter of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island. 18:01 (GMT+4) The earthquake measured at 7.9 on the Richter scale struck New Zealand's South Island, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Center (EMSC) said on Sunday, Sputnik International reported. The 7.9-magnitude earthquake hit the island at 11:02 GMT, EMSC specified. The epicenter of the earthquake was less than 120 miles from the city of Christchurch that was heavily damaged and saw at least 185 deaths in the earthquakes of 2010-2012. There have been damages to residential buildings, but so far no reports of casualties, according to some local media outlets. New Zealand's Civil Defense and Emergency Management Ministry (MCDEM) issued a warning for a tsunami for the eastern coast of both North and South Islands. "The tsunami threat is for the east coast of all New Zealand (including Christchurch, Wellington and the Chatham islands," MCDEM twitted. The instructions for behavior during quakes and tsunami and advised everyone on the eastern coast to "move to high ground," the ministry added.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113202500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="barrie-fb7c6135381c01f7c57c34e79a490f30"><title>'It was very emotional': Winnipegger speaks to mother in New Zealand</title><link>http://winnipeg.ctvnews.ca/it-was-very-emotional-winnipegger-speaks-to-mother-in-new-zealand-1.3158876</link><description>Just 10 days before a Winnipeg woman and her two children are set to visit family in New Zealand, disaster struck.

Lynley Davidson woke up Sunday morning to news of a powerful 7.8 magnitude earthquake that hit New Zealand's South Island.

Davidson immediately reached out to family, including her mother, who is in her 80s. “She thought she was never going to get to see me, today, when that earthquake was hitting,” she said. “It was very emotional. I just said, ‘Don’t worry, we will be there in 10 days. It’s only 10 days’.” Davidson is from a town called Rangiora, north of Christchurch. The quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. “Knowing how much damage had been done before, I couldn’t believe it. You know that people’s houses are going to be affected. There’s going to be landslides, major devastation,” she said. Davidson said stores and bridges were just finished being built earlier this year, and now this. “I was scared for their safety, yes. I’m still concerned for them just knowing how many aftershocks they’ve got to live through today. It’s not easy for them,” she said. Tear down and clean up after the 2011 earthquake took four years, said Davidson. It was only in the last 12 months that they began rebuilding, she added. “I’ve talked to all my family, but a lot of people were told to move to higher ground. It was close to midnight, their time, so they just got in their cars and drove to towns that were higher ground and they’re camping out in grocery store parking lots,” said Davidson. Three weeks after the 2011 earthquake happened, Davidson, who was the president of the Down Under Club of Winnipeg at the time, helped to fundraise close to $15,000 for those affected. Davidson said she’s unsure if she’ll be doing any fundraising this time around, as it’s too early to tell how much damage there is. The New Zealand government has to ask for help before anything can be done, she added. With three generations of her family living in New Zealand, Davidson said she is happy they are all safe and that their homes are intact at this point. “We’re just so grateful that everyone is safe and sound and we appreciate all prayers,” she said. - With files from CTV Winnipeg's Shelden Rogers and Nick Perry, The Associated Press.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113233400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="wptv-99799fec6cdae0adddd1863fb6121ff0" duplicate="wkbw-3b98c733351a40704aa103eebd38e63f"><title>Powerful quake strikes in New Zealand</title><link>http://www.wptv.com/news/powerful-quake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) -- A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake.

In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113135900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="mynews13-5075218456f3abc5efc39f007da654eb" duplicate="wkbw-3b98c733351a40704aa103eebd38e63f"><title>Powerful quake strikes near Christchurch, New Zealand</title><link>http://www.mynews13.com/content/news/cfnews13/news/article.html/content/news/articles/ap/2016/11/13/Powerful_quake_strikes_near_Christchurch_New_Zealand.html?cid=rss</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- (AP) A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington.

New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people.

About 10 hours after the huge quake hit, GeoNet had recorded 232 aftershock events. One of those tremors was of 6.1 magnitude. By noon AEDT close to 300 shocks had been recorded. Caroline Little, a spokeswoman for GeoNet, told Fairfax Media that the agency was "pretty confident" the initial earthquake was two seismic events about 50 kilometres apart. It is the largest earthquake recorded in New Zealand since 2009. said: "It looks like we've got two separate but related quakes going on. Our reports indicate that the combination of these two quakes lasted two minutes, with the most severe shaking at around 50 seconds." "It's quite a complex quake," Ms Little said. "It looks like two events happening almost simultaneously."

UPDATE: Mag 7.9 South Island of New Zealand. 14 Nov 2016 00:03 (NZDT). Lat/Long -42.7 172.7. Depth 59km. Info is preliminary.— EarthquakesGA (@EarthquakesGA) /div&gt; November 13, 2016 "What is occurring is a rip through the earth's crust," he said. "From our measurements it seems this one started onshore about 15 kilometres underground and ruptured the crust from west to east in a slightly north-easterly direction." GeoNet released an initial report of expected likely scenarios. Scenario 1 (Very likely): a normal aftershock sequence over the next few months. This means gradually diminishing size and frequency of seismic events. Scenario 2 (Likely): Possible rupture earthquake of magnitude 6 in North Canterbury and/or offshore. Scenario 3 (Unlikely): Another large earthquake above magnitude 7 within a month in the Marlborough and Cook Strait regions. GeoNet measured the quake at a magnitude of 7.5, although the United States Geological Survey said it was of a 7.8 magnitude and Geoscience Australia said the event was of a 7.9 magnitude. "There are a number of ways we can look at an earthquake," Mr Jaksa said. He said GeoNet relied on measuring close readings, which can "saturate" the measurement devices causing what he called "clipping".

The first measurements from an earthquake are the "p-waves", which are compression waves travelling through the earth, much like sound waves. Mr Jaksa said these dispersion waves allow detection of a quake's location and an initial estimate of its size. Following the "p-waves" seismologists measure "s-waves", which are slower moving shear waves travelling perpendicular to the direction of the p-waves. Seismologists then measure even slower surface waves that shake the crust in rolling waves allowing a better understanding of the event.

Mr Jaksa said GeoNet relied on more localised measurements, whereas Geoscience Australia incorporated more longer-period waves. USGS uses a similar method, explaining why the US and Australian agencies have issued similar magnitudes for the event. He said the NZ measurement was more like the older Richter scale, which measured amplitudes of seismic waves. The current scales incorporate measurements of earth movement. Ms Little said that GeoNet's use of local stations gave it a better ability to locate the epicentre and determine whether it was one or two seismic events. "We're pretty confident it was two," she said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114031700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="WashingtonPost-74d7a66ca82146df58845ea35a0eb74c"><title>New Zealand faces 6-foot-high tsunami waves after powerful earthquake</title><link>https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2016/11/13/tsunami-warning-issued-after-huge-earthquake-strikes-new-zealand/</link><description>A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck in the south island of New Zealand early Monday morning, triggering a tsunami alert for the entire east coast of the country as six-foot-high waves began to come in.

Where the 6.6mag #eqnz earthquake was felt in New Zealand. — Sonia Cuff (@Cuff_S) November 13, 2016 “If you are in a low lying area on the East Coast of the North, South or Chatham Islands move immediately to higher ground,” New Zealand’s ministry of civil defense and emergency management tweeted as the first waves were reported crashing.

The Chathams are a small group of islands about 400 miles east of Christchurch, the largest city in the south island. Christchurch suffered a 6.3-magnitude earthquake in 2011 that destroyed large parts of the central city and killed 185 people. Monday’s earthquake, which happened just after midnight local time, was centered in Culverden, about 60 miles north of Christchurch, and was 10 miles deep. Local media reported that six-foot-high waves were rolling into Kaikoura, a coastal city north of Christchurch, and at least one building had collapsed. Phone service and the power supply in Kaikoura appeared to be cut off. Tsunami sirens were reported blaring in the Wellington and Christchurch regions, and some highways were closed due to damage to the roads, Radio New Zealand reported. On social media, people shared photos of furniture that had fallen over and cracks in roads.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113152200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="geo-tv-39013498fb09de378210b680db499c02" duplicate="saudigazette-eb53df0b2e171b0c9b8a8797bddb10f7"><title>Two dead after NZ quake, residents flee tsunami</title><link>https://www.geo.tv/latest/120516-Two-dead-after-NZ-quake-residents-flee-tsunami</link><description>CHRISTCHURCH: Rescuers in New Zealand were scrambling Monday to reach the epicentre of a powerful 7.8 earthquake that killed at least two people and sparked a tsunami alert that sent thousands fleeing for higher ground.

The jolt, one of the most powerful ever recorded in the quake-prone South Pacific nation, hit just after midnight Monday near the South Island coastal town of Kaikoura. As dawn broke there was scant information from many nearby rural villages, which were isolated by landslips and fractured telephone communications as strong aftershocks continued. Prime Minister John Key confirmed two people had died and said "we cannot rule out" that number will rise. Police were trying to reach the scene of one fatality at a remote property 150 kilometres (93 miles) north of Christchurch while another person died in a historic homestead which collapsed at Kaikoura. "At this point we are unable to give precise details of what caused those fatalities," Key said, adding that communication problems made it difficult to give an accurate assessment. With roads blocked, a helicopter was taking a search and rescue team to Kaikoura, where aerial television footage showed huge landslips and at least one home destroyed. Key said military choppers had also been drafted in check the scale of destruction. "As soon as we can get a much better assessment of the actual damage then we can work out the next steps," he said. Soon after the earthquake, tsunami warning sirens were activated in South Island coastal towns and along the east coast of the North Island, with police and emergency workers going door to door to evacuate seaside properties. The ministry of civil defence, responsible for emergency management in New Zealand, initially warned of a "destructive tsunami" with waves of up to five metres (16 feet). The first waves were measured around two metres and four hours later authorities downgraded the warning, but said risks remained. The earthquake struck at 12:02am Monday (1102 GMT Sunday) and was 23 kilometres deep, the US Geological Survey said, putting the epicentre in the South Islands North Canterbury region. It ignited painful memories for residents in nearby Christchurch, which was devastated five years ago by a 6.3 tremor which killed 185 people. "It was massive and really long," Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, told AFP, describing the powerful quake as the biggest since the 2011 tremor which was one of New Zealands deadliest disasters. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up." Earthquake engineer Ken Elwood from the University of Auckland said the impact of the latest quake would have been much worse had it hit at lunchtime, like the Christchurch one. "When it happens in the middle of the day its a very different story," he told TVNZ. "People were safe in their homes, homes might get damaged but theyre safer for the people inside and thats certainly the blessing of this earthquake." The main tremor was followed by a series of strong aftershocks, with reports of damaged houses. - Significant shake - Marie Black, a local councillor who lives about 50 kilometres north of Christchurch, told the New Zealand Herald there were reports of damage to buildings in the North Canterbury region. "It was a significant shake, I have felt several aftershocks and it is very unnerving," she said. In the capital Wellington, where shattered glass littered inner city streets, rail and bus services were cancelled and people were advised not to commute to work Monday. Wellington resident Kevin Simonsen, 72, said he had never experienced such a strong quake. "It was a rolling motion, very violent," he told AFP. "It just went on and on. You could hear the building creak. It was quite scary and eerie." Mount Victoria, the citys highest point, was choked with cars in the early hours as residents from low-lying areas sought refuge from a possible tsunami. "I just packed up my kids and went up to my mums," Kylie Goodman said. In several cities guests were forced to evacuate hotels when the quake hit, including Nelson, about 200 kilometres from the quake centre where the touring Pakistan cricket team are staying. "Some of the boys were in prayer, some were watching the India-England Test on TV when we felt the windows shake," team manager Wasim Bari told ESPNcricinfo. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called "Ring of Fire", and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114010400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="enca-6762ddfbbd1e69cc0600a5e90ccad55d"><title>eNCA | PICS and VIDEO: New Zealand's earthquake</title><link>http://www.enca.com/world/in-pics-new-zealands-earthquake-devastation</link><description>People evacuated from buildings along Dixon Street, Wellington after an earthquake based around Cheviot in the South island shock the capital, New Zealand, early 14 November 2016.

Nov. 13, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Aid workers from Save the Children will mobilize staff to meet the needs of children and their families affected by last night's earthquake in New Zealand if there is a need for a humanitarian response. The powerful 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck approximately 30 miles north-east of Christchurch and was felt across the country. A tsunami warning is in place and residents in low-lying areas have been urged to evacuate. "The full extent of the earthquake damage is still emerging, but we know from previous experience in earthquakes how badly children can be affected from natural disasters like this," said Heather Hayden , Save the Children's CEO in New Zealand . "It will be important for parents and caregivers to allow children to express their feelings about the earthquake they lived through." 

"As we have done in other disasters we may look at establishing what's known as child friendly spaces. Child friendly spaces can improve children's psychosocial wellbeing by helping to re-establish routine, provide support and a sense of stability, as well as an opportunity to play. The spaces also provide respite for families under stress, so parents can focus on re-establishing their livelihoods knowing their children are in safe hands. "We strive to support children in disasters like earthquakes. We did it following the last Christchurch earthquake and we will do it again if there is a need to now," added Hayden. gives children in the United States and around the world a healthy start, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. We invest in childhood — every day, in times of crisis and for our future.

The powerful 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck approximately 30 miles north-east of Christchurch and was felt across the country. A tsunami warning is in place and residents in low-lying areas have been urged to evacuate. "The full extent of the earthquake damage is still emerging, but we know from previous experience in earthquakes how badly children can be affected from natural disasters like this," said Heather Hayden, Save the Children's CEO in New Zealand. "It will be important for parents and caregivers to allow children to express their feelings about the earthquake they lived through." "As we have done in other disasters we may look at establishing what's known as child friendly spaces. Child friendly spaces can improve children's psychosocial wellbeing by helping to re-establish routine, provide support and a sense of stability, as well as an opportunity to play. The spaces also provide respite for families under stress, so parents can focus on re-establishing their livelihoods knowing their children are in safe hands. "We strive to support children in disasters like earthquakes. We did it following the last Christchurch earthquake and we will do it again if there is a need to now," added Hayden.

gives children in the United States and around the world a healthy start, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. We invest in childhood — every day, in times of crisis and for our future. Follow us on

New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground.

Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand’s Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. RNZ said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. -- Reuters.

Cliff, who moved from Moncton 18 years ago and lives in the town of Blenheim, on New Zealand's South Island, recounted his ordeal after a near-sleepless night complete with a tsunami warning and frequent aftershocks. "When it kind of starts, there's just this violent shaking of the wooden frame of your house around you," the married 47-year-old said. "And you don't know. You're listening intently to the shaking. What is this rumbling noise? Is it just the house or is it something else? You're in the dark. You're trying to make some sense of where the noise is coming from and try to know what would be the right thing to do." A lesson from the Maritimes. Items crashed around the house, including drawers shaking out of a dresser, and the power went out. But Cliff and his wife, Robyn, can count themselves lucky for escaping unscathed: the 7.8-magnitude quake killed at least two people, including one person in Kaikoura, about 130 km away.

In the moment of the quake, the couple responded to the shaking only by calling for their dog, Fern. Frequent Maritimes power outages taught Cliff to put on his shoes before walking around in the dark, he said. He eventually left the house and, despite tsunami warnings issued after the quake, never heard the telltale siren in Blenheim. "If we had heard that, we should have been running for the hills, literally," he said.​ New Zealanders dealt with aftershocks every two to five minutes at first, though those had slowed to every 15 or 20 minutes around daybreak Monday. 'You don't know' Cliff contacted family members in Saint John and Moncton, and used Facebook's safety check feature to say he was OK. Though he and his wife weren't hurt, there's an emotional toll. "Emotionally you're kind of on edge," he said. "You're in a heightened state of alert. You kind of hope, 'Oh that was the big one.' But you don't know." He said the earthquake — the most powerful he's experienced in New Zealand — gives him pause about how easy it could be to be trapped away from his wife if he was travelling for work.

Cliff said the next step is to see if the quake did any significant damage to the house. Supermarkets seemed to take the worst of it Blenheim, he said. "It's a wine-drinking area.

New Zealand's Civil Defence told residents along the country's entire east coast, including Christchurch, Wellington and the Chatham Islands, to move inland or seek higher ground. It did not say how tall the first wave was but warned that areas on the east coast close to the epicenter could expect waves of up to five meters. "The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours," the Civil Defence said on Twitter. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The latest tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. The Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There have been reports of structural damage to several buildings, said Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council. Several roads around South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. In the capital Wellington, residents said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets. Hotels and apartment buildings were evacuated. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113161300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="newstalk-464b07b4f9e188cd9ee383b3265758bd"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand coast after series of powerful earthquakes</title><link>http://www.newstalk.com/reader/47.301/86543/0/</link><description>Authorities are warning that a tsunami has hit the coast of New Zealand following a series of powerful earthquakes in New Zealand.

An earthquake measuring 7.8 magnitude hit northeast of Christchurch, the US Geological Survey reports. The USGS says that the centre of the quake was on land, 91km from the city which was badly damaged by one that measured 6.3 in 2011. It was initially measured 7.4 magnitude, but later revised upwards by the USGS. New Zealand's Geonet puts the magnitude at 7.5. The initial tremor was followed by several aftershocks, further north and also both inland - including a 6.2 magnitude about 28km northwest of Kaikoura and a 5.7 south-southeast of Bleinheim. New Zealand's Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information for the country, listed dozens of quakes between 6.6 and 3.8 after midnight local time. There have been widespread reports on social media of damage to buildings and other structures. Image: USGS. On their website, the NZ Civil Defence warned: "A tsunami has been generated. Waves are expected to arrive at the Chatham islands immediately - anyone in the Chathams should move to high ground urgently. "The first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island and it may arrive in Eastern Coast of the North and South Islands of New Zealand shortly (including Wellington, Christchurch and the Chatham Islands)."

The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of 10km. Shallow tremors are said to be felt more strongly on the surface. Strong jolts were reported over 200km away in the capital, Wellington, where at least one tweeter posted pictures of damage to their home. Witnesses in Christchurch have said that the tremors lasted for a longer time that previous quakes but were less intense. It is thought the epicentre is not densely populated but is popular with tourists. The February 2011 tremor was just a few miles outside of New Zealand's third biggest town and caused widespread damage and left 185 people dead.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113143800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="news18-2328fa061c57f3a2cf9f0bf5dc2cf57d"><title>Tsunami Hits New Zealand After Series of Strong Quakes</title><link>http://www.news18.com/news/world/tsunami-hits-new-zealand-after-series-of-strong-quakes-1311602.html</link><description>People evacuated from buildings along Dixon Street stand on the street in Wellington after a 6.6 earthquake based around Cheviot in the South island shock the capital, New Zealand, Monday, Nov. 14, 2016.

Wellington: An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck central New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT Sunday), the U.S. Geological Survey said, generating a tsunami that hit the northeast coast of the South Island.

The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck just after midnight in a mostly rural area that is dotted with small towns. Near the epicenter, it opened up fissures in roads and triggered landslides. It caused damage in Wellington, the capital, more than 120 miles to the north and was strongly felt in the city of Christchurch to the south. Residents said the shaking went on for about three minutes and was followed by strong aftershocks. Prime Minister John Key said officials had no reason to believe the death toll would rise. “On the very best information we have at the moment, we think it’s only likely to be two. But of course there are isolated parts of the country which we don’t have perfect eyes on, so we can’t be 100 percent sure,” he said.

Key said that waves of about 6.6 feet had hit the coast but that the tsunami threat had since been downgraded to coastal warnings. The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand’s emergency call number, 111, police reported. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. Authorities in Wellington were urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home Monday. City officials said that some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would probably have caused a mess in some buildings. The city’s suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand’s worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. Although Monday’s quake was stronger, its epicenter was much farther from any major urban areas. Location, depth and other factors beyond magnitude all contribute to the destructive power of an earthquake. New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defense and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami struck about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. The Hawaii-based Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said it did not expect the quake to generate a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami.

Within New Zealand, there was confusion about the tsunami threat throughout the morning. The ministry initially said there was no threat but later wrote on Twitter that the “situation has changed — tsunami is possible” before reporting that a tsunami had hit. The quake was far less violent than the one that struck Christchurch in 2011, said Hannah Gin, a 24-year-old lifelong resident of the city, adding that there was no jarring up and down or side to side, just a long, rolling sensation. But it went on for much longer than the typical quakes that strike the area, she said. She was less concerned about running for cover than she was about vomiting from the motion sickness, she said with a chuckle. She said that her house, which was damaged in the 2011 quake, did not appear to have sustained any new damage from Monday’s temblor. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake’s epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows were smashed and some chimneys collapsed. The quake was centered 57 miles northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The USGS initially estimated that the earthquake had a magnitude of 7.4 before revising it to 7.8. It said the quake struck at a depth of 14 miles, after initially putting the depth at six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow. New Zealand, with a population of 4.7 million, sits on the “Ring of Fire,” an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific where earthquakes are common. — Associated Press.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113234000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="vancouversun-5526a04a55d18ab32a77c99f5bbfdaee"><title>New Zealander in Calgary rattled by deadly Christchurch earthquake</title><link>http://www.vancouversun.com/news/world/zealander+calgary+rattled+deadly+christchurch+earthquake/12383097/story.html</link><description>It was a case of history repeating for New Zealand-born Sophie Fearn, who awoke to news of a deadlyÂ earthquake in Christchurch on Sunday.

Fearn was living in Europe when a deadly quake killed 185 people and destroyed much of downtown Christchurch in 2011. Now living in Calgary, Fearn feared the worst after learning of Sundayâ€™s earthquake, desperately trying to contact her parents who recentlyÂ traveled to New Zealand from Australia. â€œI was relating it back to (2011), because that was a lot scarier,â€ Fearn said. â€œThis morning I just felt kind of nauseousÂ . . . I knew they were somewhere in New Zealand, I just didnâ€™t know where they were, so I started feeling quite panicky.â€ After making posts on social media, Fearn was able to contactÂ her family. Fortunately, her parents were out of the city at the time of the quake and both were uninjured. Not everyone escaped the quake so lucky. New Zealand Prime MinisterÂ John Key has confirmed t wo people were killed when the magnitude-7.8 earthquake hit just before midnight Sunday. Multiple injuries have also been reported.Â â€œOn the very best information we have at the moment, we think itâ€™s only likely to be two,â€ Key said. â€œ But, of course, there are isolated parts of the country thatÂ we donâ€™t have perfect eyes on, so we canâ€™t be 100 per cent sure.â€ The quake lastedÂ about three minutes and shocks were felt in the capital of Wellington more than 200 kilometres away. Power was knocked out in parts of Wellington, and New Zealandâ€™s emergency call number was temporarily out of service. Near the epicentre, the quake triggered landslides, caused fissures in roads and damaged many buildings. Multiple aftershocks and at least three tsunami waves were triggered by the quake, with a Â two-metre wave hitting the town of Kaikoura on Â the South Island, 180Â kilometresÂ northeast of Christchurch. Kasey Murphy lives in Brooks and is traveling across New Zealand withÂ three other Albertans. The group was on a ferry from Wellington to Picton when the earthquake hit, leaving them stranded on the boat for almost 15 hours. â€œThe captain made an announcement about not being able to dock because of some power issue,â€ Murphy said. â€œThatâ€™s when we heard about the earthquake, and concerned friends and family started messaging.â€ While on the boat, Murphy said she could feel aftershocks and large waves caused by the quake. The department of civil defence warned people along New Zealandâ€™s east coast to move to higher ground. The Hawaii-based Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said it does not expect the quake to generate a destructive, Pacific-wide tsunami. Sarah Stuart-Black with theÂ department of civil defence applauded New Zealanders for evacuating from the most damaged areas, and said the public has remained calm throughout the incident. â€œYour strength, trust and willingness to do the right thing not only helps to keep people safe, but makes our jobs and the jobs of other emergency services much easier.â€

New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one meter (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand’s Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicenter, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. RNZ said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113154400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="geo-tv-068bca98bc468856d5b16da29a508101"><title>Pakistan cricket teams evacuated from hotel following powerful NZ earthquake November 13, 2016 Updated @ : 22:32 pst Earthquake of 7.4 magnitude struck central NZ just after midnight, generating a...</title><link>https://www.geo.tv/latest/120492-Pakistan-cricket-teams-evacuated-from-hotel-following-powerful-NZ-earthquake</link><description>KARACHI: Players of Pakistan's men and women cricket teams were evacuated from their hotel rooms in Nelson and Christchurch respectively after an earthquake measuring 7.4 jolted various cities of New Zealand on Sunday.

Pakistan's men cricket team was preparing to sleep when powerful tremors forced them to move out of hotel rooms in Nelson. "We were at the 7th floor of hotel, as soon tremors were felt we took emergency staircase to evacuate from hotel," said one team member who wished not to be named. "We all are safe and currently having a walk, and we are still feeling the aftershocks," said the player while speaking to Geo News 20 minutes after the earthquake. Players of Pakistan women team were equally panicked due to the earthquake and were evacuated from the rooms in Christchurch. Pakistan cricket team captain Sana Mir tweeted recently about the safety of the female players in New Zealand. 

All team members and staff is safe. Thanks for all your prayers and concern. Sana Mir (@mir_sana05) November 13, 2016 "It was horrible, the building was shaking badly," said a player of women team on condition of anonymity.

"We were on 13th floor, and were evacuated after the tremors, we are still observing some aftershocks," she said. Pakistan's men Cricket team was scheduled to fly for Christchurch from Nelson on Monday, but following the earthquake team's travel plan looks uncertain at the moment. Meanwhile, Basit Ali of head coach of Pakistan women Cricket team told Geo News that some players were scared after the tremors. "It was so horrible and players were scared, we immediately moved out of hotel, players were without slippers even," Basit Ali told Geo. "Thanks to Allah that we all are out safely," he added.⁠⁠⁠⁠ An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck central New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT Sunday), the US Geological Survey said, generating a tsunami that hit the northeast coast of the South Island.

An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of the city of Christchurch, New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT) early Monday, the US Geological Survey said. Strong jolts caused some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington. New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake’s epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow.

Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. New Zealand sits on the “Ring of Fire,” an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

The New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the nation’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science, said a tidal signal or surge of up to 1m had been recorded in the North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand (RNZ). The quake was centered 91km north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A magnitude 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The quake was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported, but there were no immediate reports of deaths, the ministry said. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told RNZ from her home in Takaka, on the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, said officials had gone door-to-door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he said. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. RNZ said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the nation, some as strong as magnitude 6.1.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113183400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="independent-ie-5f07bb4b5f921898231e7f223b984a2f" duplicate="cbs46-f714962d689abe050f3740a1b87f3510"><title>New Zealand hit by powerful earthquake and tsunami waves</title><link>http://www.independent.ie/world-news/new-zealand-hit-by-powerful-earthquake-and-tsunami-waves-35211277.html</link><description>A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand's South Island early on Monday, shaking awake residents, causing damage to buildings and prompting emergency services to warn people along the coast to move to higher ground to avoid tsunami waves.

The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck in a mostly rural area close to the city of Christchurch but appeared to be more strongly felt in the capital Wellington, more than 120 miles away.

The quake was followed by a number of strong aftershocks. It knocked out New Zealand's emergency call number, 111, for about 10 minutes, police reported.

It caused items to fall from shelves and windows to break in Wellington, and forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1.50am and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground.

The ministry had earlier sent out a message on Twitter saying there was no tsunami threat to the country. It then sent out another message - "situation has changed - tsunami is possible" - before reporting that a tsunami had, in fact, hit.

There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake brought back memories of a magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck the city in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people in one of New Zealand's worst disasters.

Monday's quake was centred farther away from the one in 2011. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicentre, power was knocked out in some places and some windows were smashed and some chimneys collapsed.

The quake was centred 57 miles north-east of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow.

Photo: USGS An earthquake with a magnitude of 6.6 struck 90 kilometres north of the city of Christchurch, New Zealand, and was felt as far away as Auckland. The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 16 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday. The New Zealand government's GeoNet website reported it as severe and it was felt throughout the country. There were no immediate reports of damages from the latest quake. A Christchurch Police spokeswoman said the only call they had initially regarding the earthquake was a hole in the road in Hundalee, North Canterbury. She said there hadn't yet been any calls about damage in Christchurch.

"Just be careful on the roads in case there's damage," she said. St John Ambulance said they had no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre (EOC)", they said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said there was no tsunami threat from Monday's quake. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. Stuff.co.nz, Reuters, AAP.

"We are staying at a hotel in Nielsen, where we were playing our tour match but today when the earthquake came it was a terrifying experience as everything was shaking badly and we were safely escorted out of the hotel," Bari said from New Zealand.

"The hotel staff took great care of us and quickly evacuated us from our seventh floor rooms and have now taken us to a safe zone until the Tsunami warnings are over," he said. Pakistan's only 3-day tour match before the first test at Christchurch from November 17 was also washed out on the final day on Sunday in Nielsen and Bari said this had deprived the players a great opportunity to acclimatise to the conditions in New Zealand. "Most of the players were in their rooms watching the and England test match when it came, the quake was a powerful one and the windows and doors were banging around and it was shaking as we were rushed out. But everyone has settled down now and we also called up the women's team in Christchurch to find out if they were okay," the former Test captain said.

is in New Zealand for a two-test series while the women's team is also in New Zealand for a five match one-day series and are already three down in the rubber.

Bari said the Pakistan team would reach Christchurch on Monday and hoped the weather would hold up. "It rained throughout our stay in Nielsen so we are hoping to see some sunshine and clear weather in Christchurch. Obviously, if conditions are wet it is not to our liking," he said. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat from Monday's quake. Bari said that the Pakistani players were looking forward to the challenge of continuing their good test form in and Australia as well. New Zealand "We have a very settled side for Tests and I think we are very well prepared this time for the different conditions even though our tour match was washed out completely," he added.

It triggered waves of 2.49 meters (8 feet) above usual tide levels, the highest New Zealand had seen in at least 38 years, Philip Duncan of Weather Watch New Zealand said. An initial tsunami warning was lifted but temblors continued Monday afternoon. A 6.2-magnitude quake struck around 1:30 p.m. 39 kilometers west-southwest of Kaikoura, further north of Christchurch. New Zealand is a South Pacific nation of islands, the two largest being the North and South islands, which are home to most of the population. Aftershocks from South Island reverberated all the way to Wellington, the country's capital on the North Island, where residents were told to stay indoors Monday. 'It's going to be a long night' In Christchurch, memories of a devastating 6.3-magnitude earthquake in 2011 are still fresh for many. That quake killed 185 people and injured thousands, and reduced swaths of the city's historic area to rubble. "The land has been very peaceful for many, many months. So this is bringing back all the rare memories," said Chet Wah, owner of Designer Cottage B&amp;B in Christchurch. "I just checked with all the guests. They are alright. It is scary. It's going to be a long night." Christchurch, on the South Island's eastern coast, has a population of more than 340,000 people, the most recent census shows. Powerful aftershocks. Images on social media showed shattered windows, toppled grocery items on the floor of a supermarket and water sloshing back and forth in swimming pools from different parts of the country. Mark A'Court, owner of the Fresh Choice in Nelson City, posted security video footage on Facebook showing wine bottles falling from shelves at his store. A photo of a road with a deep, wide crack down its middle served as sobering evidence of the temblor's force. "This is the strongest [earthquake] I've ever felt," Tamara Hunt said. She was with her husband at their home in Whanganui when the earthquake struck. "It started off so small, like the cat moving in the bed, but then it started building and I had to run to the door. Stuff in the house was falling over and the doors were swaying really bad," she said. "Then we decided to get out, and that's when we saw our pool had lost a lot of water. The earthquake went on for two minutes." The South Island has been hit by a flurry of aftershocks, according to the USGS and New Zealand's Geonet service, some with a magnitude above 6.0. Officials from the island's second-largest town, Dunedin, called a state of emergency there. Life in a 'collision zone' The USGS initially reported the quake's magnitude at 7.4 at a depth of just 10 kilometers -- shallow enough to cause serious destruction to the immediate surrounding area. It later revised the quake strength to 7.8, but changed its depth to 23 kilometers (14.2 miles) , giving more of a buffer between the epicenter and the Earth's surface. New Zealand is regularly hit by earthquakes, because it sits in a "collision zone" between the Indo-Australian and Pacific tectonic plates. It is part of the Pacific's "Ring of Fire," a horseshoe-shaped belt around the ocean's edges where many earthquakes and volcano eruptions occur.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114031100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="wcvb-e05d87b6407ed363e5764253d4d339f2"><title>New Zealand: At least 2 dead in 7.8-magnitude quake</title><link>http://www.wcvb.com/national/new-zealand-powerful-74magnitude-quake-rocks-south-island/42486662</link><description>At least two people died in the series of violent quakes, according to Prime Minister John Key.

In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand's worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away.

November 13, 2016 According to Weatherwatch.co.nz, a a gauge at Kaikoura, 181 kilometres north of Christchurch, measured a wave of 2.5 metres in the early hours of the morning. At one point, the New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management suggested tsunami waves as tall as five metres could hit the east coast. But by 5.30am local time, the warning was scaled back to waves of three metres in certain areas. This information was issued 15 minutes ago: "There is a tsunami marine and beach threat from Napier to north of Dunedin, Cook Straight coastal areas and The Chatham Islands. The threat for all other regions has been lifted. All previous threat regions will experience unusually strong currents for some time." Those areas can expect "unusually strong currents and unpredictable water flows near the shore. This means a threat to beach, harbour, estuary and small boat activities. The severity of currents and changing water flows will vary within a particular coastal area and over the period this warning is in effect." See the

5:21am Residents urged to stay home. November 13, 2016 Authorities in New Zealand's capital Wellington are urging people who work in the centre of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The 7.8-magnitude quake struck early Monday, just after midnight.

5:18am November 13, 2016 Latest measurement of the earthquake. The US Geological Survey says it has reviewed the available data, which indicated the earthquake was 7.8 magnitude and struck at a depth of 23 kilometres, 53 kilometres north north-east of Amberley in New Zealand. The quake occurred as the result of "shallow oblique-reverse faulting on or near the boundary between the Pacific and Australia plates in South Island, New Zealand", the US Geological Survey said.

The video was posted on Facebook by The Grocer, a supermarket in Nelson on the coast in the country's South Island. Pictured are the first few bottles that smashed on the floor.

One woman commented on the footage, 'I'm crying to see all this wine smash', while another said she was relieved that at least no staff were hurt in the earthquake. One man theorised the reason not as many bottles fell off the shelves was because the bottles sliding back and forth acted like a shock absorber and slowed the wave down on the rack. Another said: 'Who ever stocked that shelf deserves a raise. Amazed that more didn't fall from that shelf.' Another woman said: 'Oh man. I feel for the staff who have to clean that mess up. I had to do it once after a quake in Lower Hutt. Boy, the smell! Ugh.' The supermarket posted a few images an hour ago of the store cleaned up and looking as good as new, thanking their staff and cleaning contractors for the help.

Earthquakes Tsunamis TWO FATALITIES HAVE been reported following a powerful 7.8 earthquake which struck New Zealand police said, as officials warned there may be others. Prime Minister John Key said that at least people are known to be dead. Police said they were trying to reach a remote property 150 kilometres north of Christchurch where a casualty “believed to be a fatality,” has been reported. Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said there were also reports of casualties at the nearby South Island coastal town of Kaikoura but details were unclear. Local media reported emergency services were searching for a missing person in a collapsed homestead near Kaikoura. A second person who had been thought missing in the building was found alive. The quake struck just after midnight on Sunday night local time (12.02 pm Sunday Irish time) and was 23 kilometres deep, the US Geological Survey said after revising its initial estimate which had rated the tremor slightly weaker but much shallower. It ignited painful memories for residents in Christchurch which was devastated five years ago by a 6.3 tremor which killed 185 people in one of New Zealand’s deadliest disasters. “It was massive and really long,” Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, told AFP, describing the powerful quake as the biggest since the deadly 2011 tremor. “We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up.” The main tremor was followed by a series of strong aftershocks and there were reports of damaged buildings in the small rural township of Cheviot near the epicentre. A large fissure runs along Kaikoura Road about two hours north of Christchurch. Source: AP/Press Association Images. In a brief message the Prime Minister John Key tweeted: “I hope everyone is safe after the earthquake tonight.” The ambulance service said it did not receive any reports of quake-related injuries however people took to social media to report damage with goods tipped from shelves and shattered glass littering streets. “Family friends in Cheviot say some houses are gone,” one person tweeted. Marie Black, a local councillor who lives about 50 kilometres north of Christchurch, told the New Zealand Herald there were reports of damage to buildings in the North Canterbury region. “It was a significant shake, I have felt several aftershocks and it is very unnerving,” she said. The ministry of civil defence, which urged people in eastern coastal areas to move to higher ground said “a destructive tsunami is possible. “The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours,” it said. Simon Morton, a radio presenter in the capital city Wellington, said he had evacuated his house after noticing the tide dropping away. Other people had joined him in going to higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist with the GNS Science, the government’s earthquake monitoring service, said the quakes were close to the coast and there had been tidal movement up to one metre (three feet) in the South Island town of Kaikoura. “It’s reasonably significant, so people should take this seriously,” she said. However, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said that based on available data “a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami is not expected.” In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called “Ring of Fire”, and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.

"The first wave activity may not be the most significant," it said, adding tsumanmi activity would continue for several hours. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The Christchurch Civil Defence Emergency Management said in a Facebook post, "We are currently gathering situational awareness and will share information as it comes in. At this stage, there have been no significant reports of damage across the city. Expect aftershocks and look after those around you." The New Zealand government's GeoNet website said the quake was "felt widely" throughout the country and warned citizens to watch out for aftershocks. Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, said the shaking lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP. She said there was no sign of damage on her street and the power was still on, adding that she was worried about towns and villages closer to the epicentre. "We're getting aftershocks at the moment. We're going to stock up on water supplies just in case."

The tsunami threat is for the east coast of all New Zealand (including Christchurch, Wellington and the Chatham islands) MCDEM (@NZcivildefence) November 13, 2016 The New Zealand Civil Defence Ministry warned that the first tusnami waves may not be the worst, and that tsunami activity could continue for several hours.

The magnitude-7.4 quake struck just after midnight Sunday and was centered 57 miles northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 6 miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow. New Zealand is part of a geologically active region that’s often called the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” an arc of volcanoes and fault lines in the Pacific Basin. A 2011 earthquake in the city of Christchurch destroyed much of the downtown and killed 185 people. In 2014, a magnitude-6.7 earthquake struck off the New Zealand coast and rattled much of the country but resulted in few damages or injuries.

WELLINGTON, NEW ZEALAND: New Zealand Prime Minister John Key said two people were killed in a powerful earthquake that the struck the Pacific nation early on Monday. “We don’t have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can’t rule that out,” Key told reporters in Wellington, adding that details of the casualties were still being confirmed. Key said a military helicopter was being dispatched to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113193700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="japantimes-5369dac8ba70a3e1ea0de3d23c804f7b"><title>Tsunami hit New Zealand after M7.8 South Island quake leaves two dead</title><link>http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2016/11/14/asia-pacific/tsunami-hit-new-zealand-m7-8-south-island-quake-leaves-two-dead/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+japantimes+%28The+Japan+Times%3A+All+Stories%29</link><description>SYDNEY/WELLINGTON – The powerful magnitude-7.8 quake that struck the South Island of New Zealand just after midnight Sunday, causing two deaths, triggered tsunami that hit the island’s northeast coast, the U.S. Geological Survey said.

magnitude-7.8 quake that struck the South Island of New Zealand just after midnight Sunday, causing two deaths, triggered tsunami that hit the island’s northeast coast, the U.S. Geological Survey said. There have been reports of injuries after the 12:02 a.m. quake. Radio New Zealand quoted St. John Ambulance as saying it is attending to injured people in the north Canterbury area and is getting reports of injuries from areas including Culverden and Kaikoura, both on the South Island. Details of the injuries were not immediately known. Local media reported that at least one building had collapsed in Kaikoura near the quake’s epicenter, north of Christchurch, where a magnitude-6.3 quake struck nearby in February 2011, killing 185 people. Television New Zealand reported, quoting GeoNet, the country’s source of geological hazard information, that tsunami of 2 meters or more have been recorded in Kaikoura and will hit other parts of the South Island soon. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said tsunami of up to about 1 meter were recorded. The Ministry of Civil Defence &amp; Emergency Management warned people to stay away from beaches anywhere in the country, while warning of waves of up to 5 meters along the coast near the quake’s epicenter. The ministry warned people to stay away from beaches and urged them to immediately move to higher ground. “First waves have arrived but may not be the largest,” the ministry said in a tweet. The initial temblor occurred about 93 km north-northeast of Christchurch and at a depth of 23 km. It was followed by many aftershocks, the largest being magnitude-6.5, according to USGS. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science, told Radio New Zealand that the quake was “definitely” felt across the nation. The New Zealand Herald newspaper said in its online edition that there are reports that houses in Cheviot near the quake’s epicenter were badly affected. Radio New Zealand also said there were reports of power outages and damage to roads and bridges. The national broadcaster said too, citing police, damage was caused in the capital Wellington. But the runway at the airport there was not damaged and is unlikely to be affected by tsunami, and flights will operate as usual, Radio New Zealand quoted an airport spokeswoman as saying. The USGS initially put the magnitude at 7.4 and the quake’s depth at 10 km. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center initially did not issue a warning. Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region at the epicenter of the 7.8-magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurc, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. Prime Minister John Key told a dawn news conference in the capital of Wellington, where the quake was also felt strongly, that two people had been killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. “It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington,” Key told reporters, although he stopped short of calling a national emergency. “There will be quite major costs around roads and infrastructure.” Emergency officials were meeting later on Monday morning, added Key. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, while roads were blocked by landslides. But a tsunami warning that led to mass evacuations was downgraded after large swells hit Wellington, in the North Island, and Christchurch, the South Island’s largest city. The first tremor, just 23 km (14 miles) deep, struck the Pacific island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3-magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand’s Geonet measured Monday’s quake at magnitude-7.5, while the U.S. Geological Survey put it at 7.8. New Zealand lies in the seismically active Ring of Fire, a 40,000-km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world’s earthquakes occur within this region. St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to Kaikoura, where at least one of the casualties was located. The South Island town, a popular destination for whale watching, was completely cut off and officials said there were reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, where frequent aftershocks continued to be felt hours after the first quake, residents heading for higher ground caused gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city. “I’m just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am,” Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington International airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centers were accepting residents. Police set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defense Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centered inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance.

Mr Key said a military helicopter was being sent to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicentre of the 7.8-magnitude quake, about 90 kilometres north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island. "In terms of getting a better assessment of what happens next, we have military helicopters that are available to us," Mr Key said. "[One] is going to be going down to Kaikoura very rapidly. The area is cut off from a road perspective ... we want to put one of those helicopters down there, another one will be in Wellington. "One of the purposes of bringing a helicopter down there, other than trying to provide reassurance to people, is also to make sure we can provide better [communications]." He said that details of the casualties were still being confirmed.

Strong jolts caused damage to buildings over 120 miles away in the capital of Wellington. The earthquake in New Zealand has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island, authorities have said.

A tsunami has been generated, the first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island. MCDEM (@NZcivildefence) November 13, 2016 The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the quake.

Damage to a Nelson City supermarket following Donie O'Sullivan (@donie) November 13, 2016 In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake’s epicentre, power was knocked out in some places – with some windows smashing and chimneys collapsing. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

The quake was centred 57 miles north-east of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow.

Cheers for the concern all, everyone's ok. Here's the kitchen... Richard Bicknell (@dickbicknell) November 13, 2016 The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. Luckily, this quake was much farther away from any major population centres.

New Zealand sits on the “Ring of Fire”, an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

This earthquake is like nothing we've had before. This is going to be a very bad morning in New Zealand.

"We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it [the death toll] will rise, but we can't rule that out," Mr Key said reporters in Wellington. Mr Key said a military helicopter was being sent to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicentre of the 7.8-magnitude quake, about 90 kilometres north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island. "In terms of getting a better assessment of what happens next, we have military helicopters that are available to us," Mr Key said. "[One] is going to be going down to Kaikoura very rapidly. The area is cut off from a road perspective ... we want to put one of those helicopters down there, another one will be in Wellington. "One of the purposes of bringing a helicopter down there, other than trying to provide reassurance to people, is also to make sure we can provide better [communications]." He said that details of the casualties were still being confirmed.

The New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management (MCDEM) posted several messages on Twitter: "A tsunami has been generated, the first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island."

"Waves are expected to arrive at the Chatham islands immediately - anyone in the Chathams should move to high ground urgently," MCDEM also warned on Twitter. The Chatham Islands form an archipelago in the Pacific Ocean about 680km southeast of mainland New Zealand. It consists of about 10 islands within a 40-km radius, the largest of which are Chatham Island and Pitt Island. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. According to the GeoNet online service, the initial quake struck 15 km deep and 15km north-east of Culverden. Twitter reports from locals spoke of “enormous” shaking felt in Wellington and Cheviot, as they started posting photos online of the damage.

The quake was centered near the town of Amberley, according to the US Geological Survey. GeoNet also reported another quake of a 4.9 magnitude striking near Wellington, as well as other quakes hitting Taihape, Martinborough, Seddon and Turangi. The story is developing.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113151000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="egyptindependent-e9865d2d34e5735fb29a18b17e8eb738"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after series of strong quakes</title><link>http://www.egyptindependent.com//news/tsunami-hits-new-zealand-after-series-strong-quakes</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck central New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT Sunday), the U.S. Geological Survey said, generating a tsunami that hit the northeast coast of the South Island.

"That's reasonably significant, so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand.

The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3-quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage.

The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defense said it was too early to assess the damages or whether there had been any injuries or deaths.

"The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a witness told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island.

New Zealand's Civil Defence warned residents along the country's entire east coast to seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude.

New Zealand’s civil defense and emergency management issued a warning for people living close to the coast to move inland, to higher ground. The earthquake struck about 50 miles north of the town of Christchurch. Elliot Fim, a regional official, said in a telephone interview that there were no reports of damage, injuries or fatalities there. The fire department was dealing with a large number of emergency calls seeking assistance. Mr. Fim said that people living along about 200 miles of coastline, from the small township of Kiakora and southward, had been evacuated. Some roadways and a building were reported damaged, but people had been able to move to high ground. Dan Jaksa, a duty officer from Geoscience Australia, said that if the small townships to the north of Christchurch did not have earthquake-resistant buildings, “it is going to be tough.” Photo.

Mr. Jaksa said the earthquake ruptured from west to east, with shocks moving toward the capital, Wellington, which is on the south coast of New Zealand’s North Island. “Let’s hope this is it, and there’s no more,” he said. “Every time you go up one magnitude, say from 6.3 to 7.3, it is 32 times larger in terms of the energy released,” Mr. Jaksa said. This earthquake was about 40 to 50 times bigger than the one in Christchurch in 2011, he said. After the initial 7.9 shock, there was an aftershock measuring 6.1, and then several more shocks, with three of those measuring in the high fives, he said. The earthquake occurred in the Hikurangi Trench, a subduction zone where one tectonic plate slides under another. New Zealand’s North Island and the northern part of New Zealand’s South Island are on the Pacific plate, which is moving west, while the Australian plate is largely moving north. “This is the zone where the Pacific plate goes underneath the Australian plate,” Mr. Jaksa said, adding that the shift had caused a change in the seafloor that resulted in tsunami waves.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113161500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="theglobeandmail-154beabb395d458e502ff56c4dff65ff" duplicate="wsau-a309357f483595fb299188c22ff41126"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand following 7.8-magnitude earthquake</title><link>http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/tsunami-hits-new-zealand-following-74-magnitude-earthquake/article32832130/</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the U.S. Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami.

New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two metres (6 feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand’s Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. USGS said the quake was centred 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said residents had been evacuating the city’s southern coastal suburbs due to the tsunami threat and there had been reports of structural damage to several buildings. “We’ve got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves,” he told RNZ. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113154400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="dailytimesPK-a2d816ca70a29e2dd822b3c8a3dcda36"><title>Pakistan cricketers escorted out of hotel after New Zealand earthquake 14-Nov-16</title><link>http://dailytimes.com.pk/sports/14-Nov-16/pakistan-cricketers-escorted-out-of-hotel-after-new-zealand-earthquake</link><description>KARACHI: Pakistan cricket team, who are currently in New Zealand for a two-match Test series, has been escorted off their hotel in Nelson after an earthquake of 7.4 magnitude struck Christchurch and adjoining areas on Sunday.

According to media reports, the squad was escorted out of their hotel and no casualties have been reported so far. There are reports of aftershocks in the area and Pakistan players will be waiting in a designated safe zone until it is safe to go back inside their hotel. “We are currently at Nelson and were scheduled to leave for Christchurch today morning but couldn’t depart due to the earthquake,” Waseem Bari, Manager Pakistan cricket team said while speaking to Pakistan media over telephone yesterday. The manager went on to say that the Pakistan Embassy contacted the team members and offered support. “Members of the Pakistan women’s team, who are also in New Zealand for a five-match ODI series, were also safe,” Bari quoted the Pakistan Embassy officials as saying. The Misbahul Haq-led side are scheduled to play their first Test in Christchurch on November 17. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat from Monday’s quake. “Some of the boys were in prayer, some were watching the India-England Test on TV when we felt the windows shake. The whole room began to shake. We were on the sixth and seventh floor, and evacuated immediately. The hotel staff was very helpful. We are all safe,” the former Pakistan wicketkeeper said. Women cricket team skipper Sana Mir tweeted about the safety of the players in New Zealand. Tsunami warning: New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand’s Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114020200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-1b5d800cda9d78330f6fd8cdf5f987bd"><title>Exams cancelled but few reports of damage across Manawatu</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/manawatu-standard/news/86418860/university-exams-cancelled-few-reports-of-damage-across-manawatu</link><description>She had heard that her final exam could be cancelled completely and she was hoping this would happen.

"It's been a year-long paper. I wouldn't mind if they just cancelled it," she said. All buildings are being checked on all campuses. On Monday afternoon, the university said all exams will go ahead as scheduled from tomorrow. Those canned today might not have to be re-sit. University operations, international and university registrar assistant vice-chancellor Stuart Morriss said such an approach was fair and efficient. "Rather than asking all students whose exams were postponed to re-sit at a later date, we will in almost all cases use internal assessment grades to determine an outcome," he said. "There may be some courses where this is not practical, but we will talk directly to those students if necessary. "Students who would prefer to the sit the postponed examination will be able to apply to do so and this will be considered based on the circumstances. "Similarly, students who sat the exam today but feel they were adversely affected by events leading up to it – or by this decision – will be able to apply for an alternative assessment." Power outages across region. Fire Service Manawatu area commander Mitchell Brown said about 25 people would travel to Wellington on Monday morning to help with Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) operations. The Palmerston North-based teams will be helping with building-damage assessments in the city. A support crew from Palmerston North and Whanganui will also be travelling to Wellington. Brown said there had been few reports of building damage in Palmerston North overnight. However,Bunnythorpe lost power between 12am-6am. Powerco says 7000 homes in Manawatu and 8000 in Whanganui lost power because of the quake. Power outages were reported in Tokomaru, Newbury, Aokautere, Linton, Rangiotu, Pahiatua, Ballance, Feilding and Cheltenham. At 2.20pm, according to Powerco's website, 48 homes in Feilding were without electricity and 97 in Pahiatua. Feilding and Pahiatua were expected to regain power about 4pm. Power was lost to 679 houses in Rongotea about 1pm due to the earthquake, but has since been restored, a Powerco spokeswoman said. According to Electra's website, about 60 houses in Horowhenua had reported power outages. The earthquake also caused a Foxton water main to burst and Horowhenua District Council maintenance contractors were working to repair it on Monday. The water supply from the Foxton water tower reservoir has been shut down to allow for the repairs and get the supply back operating as soon as possible. Roading staff were inspecting the district's roads and bridges, and Levin's council building was also being checked. So far there were no issues. KiwiRail has also cancelled all trains south of Palmerston North, including the morning Capital Connection commuter service. KiwiRail has not responded to requests for information about the cancellation. A tsunami warning and evacuation for Herbertville and Akitio was reduced to a marine and beach threat. Weather to turn. School NCEA exams are going a head as normal, however, New Zealand scholarship exams have been cancelled, NZQA's website states. The scholarship examinations have been postponed at all schools and exam centres. Flights and operations are running as normal at Palmerston North airport, Airways New Zealand's head of public affairs, Emily Davies said. An Air New Zealand spokesman said there were no delays and flights were running "hunky dory" from Palmerston North. A Jetstar spokesman said there were no earthquake related issues with its service. A severe weather warning was issued by MetService for Manawatu and Whanganui on Monday, with heavy rain and gale force winds expected from early evening until Tuesday morning. MetService said it was possible northerly winds would reach severe gale force, with gusts of 120 kmh or more expected in Manawatu and Whanganui. A heavy rainfall warning was also issued for the Tararua Range, the headwaters of the Whanganui River and Ruapehu. Buildings and structures checked. Palmerston North City Council engineers are on Monday morning checking local roads, council facilities and bridges for earthquake damage and at this stage no major issues have been uncovered. Council city enterprises general manager Ray McIndoe says the Fitzherbert Bridge was checked. "There was some superficial damage to a handrail, but there are no other concerns and the bridge has been deemed safe." McIndoe said the council's main building suffered minor damage, including to the air conditioning system's cooling tower. "Repairs are being undertaken right now." A council structural engineer has finished a visual inspection to the main building and has found it is safe. "He'll be making checks on other council facilities as well," McIndoe said. Water services staff members are inspecting the city's main water source, the Turitea Dam. "The dam and reservoirs are safe. They'll also be looking at the city bores and pump stations. Right now, everything is operating as normal." McIndoe suggested property owners check their buildings for damage. MidCentral DHB's services, including Palmerston North Hospital and Horowhenua Health Centre, are continuing to operate as normal, across the district. A MidCentral spokesman said engineering and facilities staff evaluated buildings at both sites immediately after the earthquake, focusing on patient areas first. No significant damage was found. A further detailed evaluation of both sites was done later on Monday morning. No major damage has been identified. Palmerston North mayor Grant Smith has offered assistance to the Wellington City Council and three Palmerston North structural engineers might go down later today or tomorrow. Palmerston North City Council chief executive Paddy Clifford knows the earthquake-struck area well, as former chief executive for the Hurunui District Council. "I feel for Kaikoura. It's cut off right now, but the will come back and will have support from around the county." So far two have been confirmed dead as a result from the earthquake.

after a homestead collapsed in Kaikoura, while another person died at a property in Mount Lyford. Clifford was involved in setting up the executive group for Civil Defence in the district and was confident systems were in place to cope. "They have good staff on all the councils and Civil Defence will be pulling it all together." The Palmerston North City Council was prepared to help wherever that was needed. "This is not the big one. But it really was a wake up call for all of us to be prepared." Palmerston North's All Saints Church, which has been closed to the public for three and a half years because of its poor earthquake rating, has come through Monday's quake unscathed. Priest and spokesman for the church's strengthening and enhancement project John Hornblow said a visual inspection of the old building revealed a little disturbed dust, but no other effects.

A tsunami warning has been issued by the country’s government after a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck – more powerful than the 2011 quake which measured 6.3. The government said: ‘People near the eastern coast of the south island should immediately move to high ground or inland as far as possible. ‘Take your getaway kit with you if possible. Do not travel into the areas at risk to get your kit or belongings. Take your pets with you if you can do so safely. ‘Move immediately to the nearest higher ground, or as far inland as you can. If evacuation maps are present, follow the routes shown. Walk or bike if possible and drive only if essential.’

Facebook has now launched its safety check for people to let others know they are safe. The US Geological Survey measured the quake at 7.5 – much more powerful than the 2011 quake which measured 6.3 on the Richter scale. It was later revised upwards to magnitude 7.8. People said that the quake felt incredibly powerful and lasted for a long time and it was so strong it could be felt 120 miles away in the capital of Wellington. Power in some parts of the country has been going on and off since the quake struck just after midnight local time (11.02am GMT) In 2011 an earthquake struck New Zealand killing 185 people and destroying large parts of the city and its infrastructure.

It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles and was followed by numerous powerful aftershocks ranging from magnitude 5.7 to 7.4. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow. New Zealand sits on the ‘Ring of Fire,’ an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

The city’s suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight.

5:30 a.m. A powerful earthquake that struck New Zealand’s South Island has opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand’s worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage.

2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113174900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="wwlp-3ce4663ae2df73d4f69a108a22b6925e" duplicate="dailyjournal-3ba68255dc56238300c1c39c63262407"><title>The Latest: New Zealand capital urges workers to stay home</title><link>http://wwlp.com/ap/the-latest-powerful-new-zealand-quake-causes-local-tsunami/</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand’s capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T18:50+0100</pubDate><source url="http://wwlp.com/category/news/feed/" country="US">wwlp</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>wwlp-3ce4663ae2df73d4f69a108a22b6925e</guid><category emm:rank="3" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="defense[1]; civil[1]; ">CivilProtection_general</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="110" emm:trigger="destroying[1]; injuries[2]; earthquake[5]; tsunami[1]; collapsed[1]; ">NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="152" emm:trigger="earthquake[5]; tsunami[1]; ">CPSI-NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="earthquake[5]; damage[5]; magnitude-7[2]; quake[6]; disasters[1]; magnitude-6[1]; struck[6]; coast[1]; killing[1]; ">Earthquakes</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="Authorities[1]; authorities[1]; hundreds[1]; large[1]; forced[1]; ">mdmaseizure</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="55" emm:trigger="WELLINGTON[1]; Wellington[4]; New Zealand[7]; geo[Christchurch];geo[Wellington];">NewZealand</category><emm:favicon>http://0.gravatar.com/blavatar/82beb0f66fcee4174912ea30f52087cc?s=32</emm:favicon><emm:georss name="Christchurch:-:Canterbury:New Zealand" id="16844969" lat="-43.5235" lon="172.638" count="4" pos="1183,1273,1767,2006" class="2" iso="NZ" charpos="1183,1273,1767,2006" wordlen="12,12,12,12" score="74">Christchurch</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Wellington:Carterton District:Wellington:New Zealand" id="16848553" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="5" pos="60,324,781,1169,1893" class="1" iso="NZ" charpos="60,324,781,1169,1893" wordlen="10,10,10,10,10" score="575">Wellington</emm:georss><emm:fullgeo name="New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand" id="169" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="7" pos="12,72,137,193,685,1378,1463" class="-1" iso="NZ" charpos="12,72,137,193,685,1378,1463" wordlen="11,11,11,11,11,11,11" score="7">New Zealand</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Wellington:Division No.  8:Manitoba:Canada" id="303700008" lat="54.926272934445" lon="-97.433197709217" count="5" pos="60,324,781,1169,1893" class="10" iso="CA" charpos="60,324,781,1169,1893" wordlen="10,10,10,10,10" score="5">Wellington</emm:fullgeo><emm:tonality>-22</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="336">WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that struck New Zealand (all times local): 5:40 a.m. Authorities in New Zealand’s capital are urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake.

People near the coast in the south island should move to high ground or inlande MCDEM (@NZcivildefence) November 13, 2016 New Zealand is part of a geologically active region that’s often called the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” an arc of volcanoes and fault lines in the Pacific Basin.

A 2011 earthquake in the city of Christchurch destroyed much of the downtown and killed 185 people. In 2014, a magnitude-6.7 earthquake struck off the New Zealand coast and rattled much of the country but resulted in few damages or injuries.

New Zealand's Civil Defence warned residents along the country's entire east coast to seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centred 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths.

US Geological Survey Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat from Monday's quake. The Christchurch Civil Defence Emergency Management said in a Facebook post, "We are currently gathering situational awareness and will share information as it comes in. At this stage, there have been no significant reports of damage across the city. Expect aftershocks and look after those around you." The New Zealand government's GeoNet website said the quake was "felt widely" throughout the country and warned citizens to watch out for aftershocks. Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, said the shaking lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP. She said there was no sign of damage on her street and the power was still on, adding that she was worried about towns and villages closer to the epicentre.

"We're getting aftershocks at the moment. We're going to stock up on water supplies just in case."

In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported.

New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called "Ring of Fire", and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.

Estimated population in the felt area: 3.2 millions inhabitants

The department of civil defense warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113144900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="independent-ie-2cfd60399061be18fba322c7eaaf155a" duplicate="RTERadio-a7d6021c9d5e2eb8c22791c8116ecc27"><title>New Zealand police confirm two people killed as thousands flee homes after tsunami hits</title><link>http://www.independent.ie/world-news/australasia/new-zealand-police-confirm-two-people-killed-as-thousands-flee-homes-after-tsunami-hits-35211240.html</link><description>"We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out," Key told reporters in Wellington, adding that details of the casualties were still being confirmed.

A powerful 7.8 magnitude earthquake and a series of aftershocks shook New Zealand in the early hours of Monday, generating a tsunami and sending thousands of people fleeing for higher ground.

Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region that bore the epicentre of the quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. There were no immediate reports of deaths. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, roads were blocked by landslips and the Civil Defence Ministry warned that waves of up to five metres (yards) remained a risk for several hours.

"The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming that may be bigger than what has come before." The first tremor, just 15 kms deep, struck the island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5.

New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 kilometre arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region. St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. It is completely cut off and officials said there are reports of a collapsed building.

"There are some reports of casualties but the picture will be clearer as day breaks," Acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city, as residents headed for higher ground.

"I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington international airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday.

In Christchurh, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centres were accepting residents. Police have set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island.

"The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centred inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113192900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="reuters-34144e8c94a8204934f9e475d838974f" duplicate="cyprus-mail-ef2bfea7492680153eaa13525deab5a9"><title>UPDATE 7-Quake strikes New Zealand, thousands flee homes as tsunami hits</title><link>http://www.reuters.com/article/us-quake-newzealand-idUSKBN1380CI</link><description>WELLINGTON A powerful 7.8 magnitude earthquake and a series of aftershocks shook New Zealand in the early hours of Monday, generating a tsunami and sending thousands of people fleeing for higher ground.

magnitude earthquake and a series of aftershocks shook New Zealand in the early hours of Monday, generating a tsunami and sending thousands of people fleeing for higher ground. Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region that bore the epicenter of the quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. There were no immediate reports of deaths. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, roads were blocked by landslips and the Civil Defence Ministry warned that waves of up to five meters (yards) remained a risk for several hours. "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming that may be bigger than what has come before." The first tremor, just 15 kms deep, struck the island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5. New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 kilometer arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region. St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. It is completely cut off and officials said there are reports of a collapsed building. "There are some reports of casualties but the picture will be clearer as day breaks," Acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city, as residents headed for higher ground. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington international airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurh, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centers were accepting residents. Police have set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centered inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand – A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometres (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington. New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometres (132 miles) north of the quake’s epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centred 93 kilometres (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometres (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday’s quake was much farther away from any major population centres. New Zealand sits on the “Ring of Fire,” an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand - U.S. Geological Survey says a magnitude-7.4 earthquake has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center did not issue a tsunami warning. New Zealand is part of a geologically active region that’s often called the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” an arc of volcanoes and fault lines in the Pacific Basin. A 2011 earthquake in the city of Christchurch destroyed much of the downtown and killed 185 people. In 2014, a magnitude-6.7 earthquake struck off the New Zealand coast and rattled much of the country but resulted in few damages or injuries.

"We are staying at a hotel in Nielsen, where we were playing our tour match but today when the earthquake came it was a terrifying experience as everything was shaking badly and we were safely escorted out of the hotel," Bari said from New Zealand.

The hotel staff took great care of us and quickly evacuated us from our seventh floor rooms and have now taken us to a safe zone until the Tsunami warnings are over.

Pakistan's only 3-day tour match before the first test at Christchurch from November 17 was also washed out on the final day on Sunday in Nielsen and Bari said this had deprived the players a great opportunity to acclimatise to the conditions in New Zealand. "Most of the players were in their rooms watching the India and England test match when it came, the quake was a powerful one and the windows and doors were banging around and it was shaking as we were rushed out. But everyone has settled down now and we also called up the women's team in Christchurch to find out if they were okay," the former Test captain said.

Pakistan is in New Zealand for a two-test series while the women's team is also in New Zealand for a five match one-day series and are already three down in the rubber.

Bari said the Pakistan team would reach Christchurch on Monday and hoped the weather would hold up. "It rained throughout our stay in Nielsen so we are hoping to see some sunshine and clear weather in Christchurch. Obviously, if conditions are wet it is not to our liking," he said.

The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat from Monday's quake. Bari said that the Pakistani players were looking forward to the challenge of continuing their good test form in New Zealand and Australia as well. "We have a very settled side for Tests and I think we are very well prepared this time for the different conditions even though our tour match was washed out completely," he added.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113163500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nydailynews-ae5f7da3ecb65bfda3c5ee596d02ffd8"><title>Tsunami reported after 7.8-magnitude earthquake strikes N.Z.</title><link>http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/powerful-quake-strikes-christchurch-n-z-article-1.2871279?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+NydnRss+%28Top+Stories+-+NY+Daily+News%29</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand — A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, generating a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island, officials said.

New Zealand emergency services warned people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground following the magnitude-7.8 quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake’s epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday’s quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the “Ring of Fire,” an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

This information was issued 15 minutes ago: "There is a tsunami marine and beach threat from Napier to north of Dunedin, Cook Straight coastal areas and The Chatham Islands. The threat for all other regions has been lifted. All previous threat regions will experience unusually strong currents for some time." Those areas can expect "unusually strong currents and unpredictable water flows near the shore. This means a threat to beach, harbour, estuary and small boat activities.

3:21am Residents urged to stay home. November 13, 2016 Authorities in New Zealand's capital Wellington are urging people who work in the centre of the city to stay home on Monday following a powerful earthquake. Wellington city officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress and that the quake would like have caused damage to some buildings. The city's suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. The 7.8-magnitude quake struck early Monday, just after midnight.

3:18am November 13, 2016 Latest measurement of the earthquake. The US Geological Survey says it has reviewed the available data, which indicated the earthquake was 7.8 magnitude and struck at a depth of 23 kilometres, 53 kilometres north north-east of Amberley in New Zealand. The quake occurred as the result of "shallow oblique-reverse faulting on or near the boundary between the Pacific and Australia plates in South Island, New Zealand", the US Geological Survey said.

A tsunami warning has been issued by the country’s government after a magnitude 7.4 earthquake struck – more powerful than the 2011 quake which measured 6.3. The government said: ‘People near the eastern coast of the south island should immediately move to high ground or inland as far as possible. ‘Take your getaway kit with you if possible. Do not travel into the areas at risk to get your kit or belongings. Take your pets with you if you can do so safely. ‘Move immediately to the nearest higher ground, or as far inland as you can. If evacuation maps are present, follow the routes shown. Walk or bike if possible and drive only if essential.’

People said that the quake felt incredibly powerful and lasted for a long time and it was so strong it could be felt 120 miles away in the capital of Wellington. Power in some parts of the country has been going on and off since the quake struck just after midnight local time (11.02am GMT) In 2011 an earthquake struck New Zealand killing 185 people and destroying large parts of the city and its infrastructure. Facebook has now launched its safety check for people to let others know they are safe. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries. There was no immediate danger of a tsunami, according to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles and was followed by numerous powerful aftershocks ranging from magnitude 5.7 to 7.4. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow. New Zealand sits on the ‘Ring of Fire,’ an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

"We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it [death toll] will rise, but we can't rule that out," Mr Key told reporters in Wellington, adding that details of the casualties were still being confirmed. Mr Key said a military helicopter was being dispatched to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicentre of the quake, some 91kms north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island. The earthquake also generated a tsunami and sent thousands of people fleeing for higher ground. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, roads were blocked by landslips and the Civil Defence Ministry warned that waves of up to five metres remained a risk for several hours. "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming that may be bigger than what has come before," said Ms Stuart-Black. The first tremor, just 15kms deep, struck the island nation after midnight local time, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured this earthquake at a magnitude of 7.5. New Zealand lies in the seismically active 'Ring of Fire', a 40,000 kilometre arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90% of the world's earthquakes occur within this region. St John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. It is completely cut off and officials said there are reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city, as residents headed for higher ground. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner said after evacuating his seaside house.

I hope everyone is safe after the earthquake tonight. @NZcivildefence is looking into the impact of the quake. Follow them to stay updated. John Key (@johnkeypm) November 13, 2016 In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centres were accepting residents. Police have set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas.

An earthquake of magnitude 7.4 has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand. The quake hit 57 miles north east of the city, which is on the east coast of the country's South Island. It struck in the early hours of Monday morning in Christchurch which was reduced to rubble by an earthquake just five years ago. Today's earthquake measured much more powerfully on the Richter scale than 2011's 6.3 measurement. Locals took to social media to show pictures and videos of their devastated homes. Alysa Jane tweeted: "6.something magnitude earthquake did it's damage I'm on the 7th floor! I'm rekt!" Kavithya wrote: "That was a huge earthquake. Got evacuated out of our apartment building.

New Zealand’s Civil Defence issued a tsunami warning, advising residents on the South Island’s east coast to seek higher ground. The quake was 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand’s Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113133500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="cyprus-mail-c9c8831375f8e1cefa9b7f31fc680d2c"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after series of strong quakes (Update 4)</title><link>http://cyprus-mail.com/2016/11/13/magnitude-7-4-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand-usgs/</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the U.S. Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami.

New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two metres (6 feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand’s Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. USGS said the quake was centred 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said residents had been evacuating the city’s southern coastal suburbs due to the tsunami threat and there had been reports of structural damage to several buildings. “We’ve got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves,” he told RNZ. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. see more. https://www.rt.com/news/366772-zealand-quake-damage-threat/</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113153500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="cyprus-mail-bfad94bf0c9761222f8f3aea840fceac" duplicate="cyprus-mail-be52d73ccf7749ef90ff94ff97725ccc"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after series of strong quakes (Update 3)</title><link>http://cyprus-mail.com/2016/11/13/magnitude-7-4-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand-usgs/</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the U.S. Geological Survey said, generating a tsunami that hit the northeast coast of the South Island.

New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand’s Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. RNZ said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. see more. https://www.rt.com/news/366772-zealand-quake-damage-threat/</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113143500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="thenews-pk-521008fb609444a5471abbf57fbdd7a5"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after massive quake</title><link>https://www.thenews.com.pk/print/164757-Tsunami-hits-New-Zealand-after-massive-quake</link><description>WELLINGTON: An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the US Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami.

Properties across the region, including in New Plymouth, Stratford, Eltham, Inglewood, Hawera and Lepperton are without power. More than 1300 properties are affected, although some areas of New Plymouth, including Westown, had power restored by 3am on Monday.

Information on the Powerco website said it hoped to restore electricity to all sites by 3pm at the latest. READ MORE:

While the earthquake was widely felt by people in the region, there have been no official reports of damage. Sergeant Ross Wright said New Plymouth police had not received any calls from the public about the earthquake. New Plymouth senior station officer Steve Dombroski also said no calls had been lodged around the city and he was not aware of any major damage in other parts of the region. "We've got away pretty lightly," he said. Taranaki Civil Defence senior emergency management officer Shane Briggs said people should expect aftershocks, some of which would be strong, and should ensure items in their homes are safe and secure.

He said while he was not aware of any major damage being reported, a few buildings in the district had suffered superficial damage but had been subsequently checked over by engineers. Taranaki residents took to Facebook to share their experiences of the quake overnight. Petreena Taylor described the earthquake as very scary. "Wow that was big for sure felt it up Carrington Rd. Felt like the house was going to fly away," she posted. Codie Roberts shared Taylor's fear. "I hate how big and scary this was. Completely shaken and wide awake now." A tsunami warning for the country was issued in the wake of the quake, but has since been been downgraded. A marine and beach threat is in place for parts of New Zealand, from Napier to the north of Dunedin, Cook Strait coastal areas and the Chatham Islands. While the threat had been lifted in Taranaki, Briggs said people should exercise caution around the coastline as unusual tidal activity was expected. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113215400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="wsau-696355f402ff45206d8bc3de3d5f188a" duplicate="cyprus-mail-be52d73ccf7749ef90ff94ff97725ccc"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after series of strong quakes</title><link>http://wsau.com/news/articles/2016/nov/13/strong-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand-usgs/</link><description>By Charlotte Greenfield.

New Zealand's Civil Defence warned residents along the country's entire east coast to seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one meter (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. "That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island.

"The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before." St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicentre of the quake, 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, where a 6.3 quake in 2011 killed 185 people, on New Zealand's South Island. "We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura," Dion Rosario, St John Incident Controller, said in a statement. "However, at this stage we do not have specifics." Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. The first tremor and a series of aftershocks were felt throughout most of New Zealand. There were no immediate reports of deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout overlooking the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. "We've got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves," he told Radio New Zealand. Other residents reported glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. A spokeswoman for the city council of Christchurch, where tsunami sirens rent the air, said its "emergency operations centre" was active. Several roads around the South Island were closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. New Zealand's Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113173000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="reuters-87fde535e749f5ac9adc2c497b60ce21" duplicate="cyprus-mail-be52d73ccf7749ef90ff94ff97725ccc"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after series of strong quakes</title><link>http://www.reuters.com/article/us-quake-newzealand-idUSKBN1380CI?feedType=RSS&amp;feedName=topNews&amp;utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+reuters%2FtopNews+%28News+%2F+US+%2F+Top+News%29</link><description>WELLINGTON An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck central New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT Sunday), the U.S. Geological Survey said, generating a tsunami that hit the northeast coast of the South Island.

Emergency services warned of destructive waves of up to five meters (yards) in some areas. "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before." St John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicentre of the quake, 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, where a 6.3 quake in 2011 killed 185 people, on New Zealand's South Island. "We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura," Dion Rosario, St John Incident Controller, said in a statement. "However, at this stage we do not have specifics." Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. The first tremor and a series of aftershocks were felt throughout most of New Zealand. There were no immediate reports of deaths. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout overlooking the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. "We've got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves," he told Radio New Zealand. Other residents reported glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. A spokeswoman for the city council of Christchurch, where tsunami sirens rent the air, said its "emergency operations centre" was active. Several roads around the South Island were closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. New Zealand's Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113174000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="tribune-3b60ba28845302d4c2f2a9bd2aa00493" duplicate="cyprus-mail-be52d73ccf7749ef90ff94ff97725ccc"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after series of strong quakes</title><link>http://tribune.com.pk/story/1229800/magnitude-7-4-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand/</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck central New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT Sunday), the US Geological Survey said, generating a tsunami that hit the northeast coast of the South Island.

New Zealand’s Civil Defence warned residents along the country’s entire east coast to seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one meter (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island.

“It was massive and really long,” Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, told AFP, describing the powerful quake as the biggest since the deadly 2011 tremor. “We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up.” In a brief message the Prime Minister John Key tweeted: “I hope everyone is safe after the earthquake tonight.” The ambulance service said it did not receive any reports of quake-related injuries. However, the national civil defence organisation, which is in charge of New Zealand’s emergency management said a tsunami was possible. “The first wave activity may not be the most significant,” it said in a bulletin, adding tsunami activity would continue for several hours. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist with the GNS Science, said the government’s earthquake monitoring service, the quakes were close to the coast. “They’ve been quite large. We’ve also seen a signal on the tide gauge at Kaikoura which is up to one metre (three feet) so it’s reasonably significant, so people should take this seriously.” However, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said that based on available data “a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami is not expected.” In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called “Ring of Fire”, and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113144500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="business-times-86933cac7da76f4d0b16e45aa46921a5"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after 7.4 magnitude quake</title><link>http://www.businesstimes.com.sg/government-economy/tsunami-hits-new-zealand-after-74-magnitude-quake</link><description>A tsunami warning alert is seen on a notice board above State Highway 1 in New Zealand’s Wellington early on Nov 14, following an earthquake centred some 90 kilometres north of Christchurch.

In Wellington, the capital, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake, which struck early Monday, just after midnight, is unlikely to be known before daybreak. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand’s worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island. The department of civil defense warned people all along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight Sunday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113175400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="cyprus-mail-ef2bfea7492680153eaa13525deab5a9"><title>Quake strikes New Zealand, thousands flee homes as tsunami hits (Update 6)</title><link>http://cyprus-mail.com/2016/11/13/magnitude-7-4-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand-usgs/</link><description>WELLINGTON, Nov 14 (Reuters) – A powerful 7.8 magnitude earthquake and a series of aftershocks shook New Zealand in the early hours of Monday, generating a tsunami and sending thousands of people fleeing for higher ground.

Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region that bore the epicentre of the quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. There were no immediate reports of deaths. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, roads were blocked by landslips and the Civil Defence Ministry warned that waves of up to five metres (yards) remained a risk for several hours. “The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been,” said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. “Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming that may be bigger than what has come before.” The first tremor, just 15 kms deep, struck the island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand’s Geonet measured Monday’s quake at magnitude 7.5. New Zealand lies in the seismically active “Ring of Fire”, a 40,000 kilometre arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world’s earthquakes occur within this region. St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. It is completely cut off and officials said there are reports of a collapsed building. “There are some reports of casualties but the picture will be clearer as day breaks,” Acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city, as residents headed for higher ground. “I’m just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am,” Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house.

Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington international airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurh, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centres were accepting residents. Police have set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centred inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113183600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="MaltaToday-6abc77ca8e78f4f3aa15b1ca752fc186"><title>Updated | Tsunami strikes New Zealand after powerful tremor</title><link>http://www.maltatoday.com.mt/news/world/71569/66magnitude_earthquake_reported_just_north_of_christchurch</link><description>A tsunami has struck New Zealand’s east coast after a powerful earthquake hit the South Island just after midnight.

The US Geological Survey said the magnitude-7.4 quake hit 59 miles (95km) from Christchurch, which is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed many buildings. The tsunami arrived in the north-eastern coast about two hours later. Officials said the first waves may not be the largest, with tsunami activity possible for several hours. The New Zealand Civil Defence advised residents on the South Island's east coast to seek higher ground over fears that the earthquake could cause a tsunami. Civil defence issued a tsunami warning for the entire east coast and said it was “assessing [the] situation with assistance of scientific advisers and civil defence groups”. The quake struck at about midnight local time (12:00 CET) with the scale of damage and extent of injuries still being unclear. A gauge at Kaikoura, 181 km (112 miles) north of Christchurch, measured a wave of two metres (6ft 5ins). According to the New Zealand Herald, said the tremor was felt all the way to Wellington, where sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. Early reports suggested some houses in Cheviot town, near the epicentre, have been damaged. But Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents and found "everyone seems okay". He told RadioNZ: “There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened.” New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113150200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="voxy-bb7284aa29c2505fcd650deb7def6da8"><title>House of Travel fields cancellations and changes post-quake</title><link>http://www.voxy.co.nz/national/5/268221</link><description>New Zealand owned travel companies House of Travel and Orbit World Travel are fielding domestic travel cancellations and disrupts following this morning’s earthquake, with a number of Kiwis in affected areas now unable to travel.

House of Travel Commercial Director Brent Thomas says Orbit World Travel’s team of Kiwis in London has been on hand to take the pressure off areas affected by the earthquake. "While we are New Zealand owned and operated businesses, we also have a call centre in London operated by Kiwis who can support us at times such as this, when the business is under pressure. This morning alone, while most of us were asleep, the London team managed enquiries for over 100 disrupted passengers," he says. "While airports are operating as usual, the roads in a number of areas are preventing customers from making it to the airport. Aside from logistical issues, we also have customers who will have had a bit of a shock and want to remain close to home. "Some of our stores have had to close today, so Orbit’s business travellers have been supported by the team in London, while House of Travel stores in unaffected areas can step in to help customers where their local store is closed today." Thomas says all customers who have travel plans that may be disrupted due to the earthquake should contact their travel agent as soon as possible. "Even if your local store is closed, you will be diverted to another travel agent who can help you and manage travel insurance enquiries on your behalf. Our thoughts are with everyone who has been affected by the quake and we want to do our best to make the process of changing travel plans for those affected as painless as possible." House of Travel is New Zealand’s largest owned and operated retail travel company, with 75 stores throughout the country, from Kerikeri in the north to Invercargill in the South. Orbit World Travel is the corporate arm of the House of Travel business, with nine offices around New Zealand, five in Australia and the afterhours support office in London.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114015600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="CBC-bcdc0b89ec5edd7ab9d1a28d968860a8" duplicate="jpost-c78cb5f536597d952ca58d835fbd69f0"><title>7.8 magnitude earthquake strikes New Zealand</title><link>http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/new-zealand-quake-1.3848896?cmp=rss</link><description>A 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck New Zealand's South Island just after 6 a.m. ET on Sunday.

An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck 91 kilometres north-northeast of the city of Christchurch, New Zealand just after 6 a.m. ET, the U.S. Geological Survey. The U.S. Geological Survey initially said the quake had a magnitude of 7.4. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The U.S. Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat from Monday's quake, but the New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence stated on Twitter that a tsunami was possible and recommended people near the east coast of the South Island move to higher ground immediately. situation has changed - tsunami is possible. People near the coast in the south island should move to high ground or inlande

Tsunami therat is for the eastern coast of the south island. anyone near the east coast of the south island should move to high ground

The U.S. Geological Survey is reporting that two aftershocks have reached magnitudes of 6.2 and 5.7. The extent of the damage from the quake is not yet known.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113134000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="abc-au-4d8d3f3ba205727caf9ca45662785c36"><title>Powerful earthquake strikes near Christchurch with tsunami possible</title><link>http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-11-13/magnitude-7.4-earthquake-hits-near-christchurch/8021922</link><description>A magnitude-7.4 earthquake has struck near the city of Christchurch in New Zealand, generating a tidal surge of up to one metre along the northeast coast of the South Island.

The powerful quake hit just after midnight (local time), with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings more than 200 kilometres away in the capital, Wellington.

New Zealand's Civil Defence issued a tsunami warning, advising residents on the South Island's east coast to seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre had been recorded in the North Canterbury region of the South Island.

"That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometres north of the quake's epicentre, power was knocked out in some places, with windows smashed and chimneys damaged. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch, the biggest city on the South Island. But Civil Defence said it was too early to assess for damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as magnitude-6.1. Earthquake 'scarier than normal' Australian journalist Gemma Snowdon, who is living just north of Christchurch, told the ABC the tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, woke her from her sleep. "The extent of this quake was so much that it woke me up out of my sleep and I thought someone in my house was moving furniture around or something," she said. "I ran outside with my housemates and we quickly realised what was going on and the ground just shook and shook and shook and it seemed never-ending. Snowdon said the situation was "scarier than normal". "I have been hearing sirens and alarms going off throughout the city," she said.

"I think everyone is a bit shaken up by this," she added.

"[Earthquakes] are a common occurrence but this one was particularly long and protracted." The quake struck at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometres. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire", an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113140900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-3149912e00ff6c006dde5dfe029b4205" duplicate="news-yahoo-6a5837c9b6afd0b8b7387b6ff9467e71"><title>U.S. Geological Survey says a magnitude-7.4 earthquake has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&amp;objectid=11747415&amp;ref=rss</link><description>.

The initial tremor was followed by several aftershocks, further north and also both inland - including a 6.2 magnitude about 20 miles (28km) northwest of Kaikoura and a 5.7 south-southeast of Bleinheim.

The February 2011 tremor was just a few miles outside of New Zealand's third biggest town and caused widespread damage and left 185 people dead. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no risk of a tsunami from the first quake which struck just after midnight on Monday, local time.

But NZ civil defence later revised the warning, saying anyone near the east coast of the South Island should move to higher ground. There are reports that waves of up to two metres may have hit the Kaikoura area. New Zealand's Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information for the country, listed dozens of quakes between 6.6 and 3.8 after 12.02am local time.

The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of six miles (10km). Shallow tremors are said to be felt more strongly on the surface.

Primary New Zealand #earthquake lasted about a minute. Long, long, long shake and roll. About 17 aftershocks so far, biggest mag 6.1. Rick Kiessig (@RickKiessig) November 13, 2016 Strong jolts were reported over 120 miles (200km) away in the capital, Wellington, where at least one tweeter posted pictures of damage to their home.

Witnesses in Christchurch have told Sky News that the tremors lasted for a longer time that previous quakes but were less intense.

But others further north described strong shaking, with some calling the feeling "weird". One Tweeter, Rick Kiesseg, posted: "Primary New Zealand #earthquake lasted about a minute.

The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 16 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday. The New Zealand government's GeoNet website reported it as severe and it was felt throughout the country. There were no immediate reports of damages from the latest quake. A Christchurch Police spokeswoman said the only call they had initially regarding the earthquake was a hole in the road in Hundalee, North Canterbury. She said there hadn't yet been any calls about damage in Christchurch.

"Just be careful on the roads in case there's damage," she said. St John Ambulance said they had no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre (EOC)", they said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said there was no tsunami threat from Monday's quake. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113130600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="reuters-b3aa64342b7e8d470be8820f130005ae" duplicate="news-yahoo-72ec3555796b90a8f476527719f21cdb"><title>Two killed as powerful earthquake hits New Zealand</title><link>http://www.reuters.com/article/us-quake-newzealand-idUSKBN1380CI?feedType=RSS&amp;feedName=topNews&amp;utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+reuters%2FtopNews+%28News+%2F+US+%2F+Top+News%29</link><description>WELLINGTON A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground.

who="579538" verb="told">"It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington,"</emm:quote><emm:tonality>-16</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="651">WELLINGTON A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground. Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region at the epicenter of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. Prime Minister John Key told a dawn news conference in the capital of Wellington, where the quake was also felt strongly, that two people had been killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. "It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington," Key told reporters, although he stopped short of calling a national emergency. "There will be quite major costs around roads and infrastructure." Emergency officials were meeting later on Monday morning, added Key. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, while roads were blocked by landslips. But a tsunami warning that led to mass evacuations was downgraded after large swells hit Wellington, in the North Island, and Christchurch, the South Island's largest city. The first tremor, just 23 km (14 miles) deep, struck the Pacific island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5, while the U.S. Geological Survey put it at 7.8. New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region. RESCUE PERSONNEL St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to Kaikoura, where at least one of the casualties was located. The South Island town, a popular destination for whale watching, was completely cut off and officials said there were reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, where frequent aftershocks continued to be felt hours after the first quake, residents heading for higher ground caused gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington International airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centers were accepting residents. Police set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centered inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.

Monday's quake, initially put at 7.4 but later upgraded, struck at 12:02am (1102 GMT Sunday). It was only 10 kilometres deep and felt throughout most of the country. The main tremor was followed by a series of strong aftershocks and there were reports of damaged buildings in the small rural township of Cheviot near the epicentre. "It was massive and really long," Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, told AFP, describing the powerful quake as the biggest since the deadly 2011 tremor. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up." In a brief message the Prime Minister John Key tweeted: "I hope everyone is safe after the earthquake tonight." The ambulance service said it did not receive any reports of quake-related injuries.

However, the national civil defence organisation, which is in charge of New Zealand's emergency management said a tsunami was possible. "The first wave activity may not be the most significant," it said in a bulletin, adding tsunami activity would continue for several hours. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist with the GNS Science, said the government's earthquake monitoring service, the quakes were close to the coast. "They've been quite large. We've also seen a signal on the tide gauge at Kaikoura which is up to one metre (three feet) so it's reasonably significant, so people should take this seriously." However, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said that based on available data "a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami is not expected." In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called "Ring of Fire", and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113142000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="smh-bb4cd0f97a2bef3c8999de45e03fc5ab"><title>Strong magnitude 7.8 earthquake strikes near Christchurch, New Zealand</title><link>http://www.smh.com.au/world/strong-magnitude-78-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand-20161113-gsofib.html</link><description>"That's reasonably significant so people should take this seriously," she told Radio New Zealand.

"The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours," the ministry tweeted. It warned people to expect aftershocks and many had been felt with the largest a magnitude 5.6 tremor soon after the initial quake. There were no immediate reports of casualties. Sydney Morning Herald journalist Saimi Jeong was in a hotel in Christchurch when the tremors began. "I was in bed about to sleep when I heard the door start rattling. I thought someone was at the door trying to get in," she said. "Then I felt the tremor - the bed was shaking, the floor was shaking. That's when it struck me that it was an earthquake. "I could see the lamp and curtains shaking. It just kept going, and I wondered when it would finally stop." Stuff.co.nz said residents in Christchurch's coastal suburbs were evacuating and moving to higher ground. Hotels and occupied buildings in the CBD had been evacuated. Many people were standing around in the middle of the street, away from buildings, calling people to let them know they were okay. In Wellington, hundreds of people were on the streets as building alarms sounded and fire trucks and police cars headed to the CBD. Near Civic Square, hotel guests huddled together in bathrobes while they waited for their buildings to be cleared. Windows in some high-rise office buildings had smashed, while plaster and masonry appeared to have fallen down from some buildings, Stuff.co.nz said. St John Ambulance said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre", it said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." Fairfax New Zealand journalist Kirsty Lawrence was asleep in Palmerston North, on the North Island, when the earthquake struck. "I waited in bed for a moment but then it got louder and started growing in intensity," Ms Lawrence said. "I was straight up and under a doorway. All our cupboards starting banging in the kitchen and stuff was falling all over on my dresser and car alarms were going off. And I'm up in Palmerston North so reasonably far from it and it was still huge. It went for so long." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113145600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="timesofindia-c61ea47fe605c7d74164cce056d11526" duplicate="scmp-0542889fea5972792e082161182c6922"><title>2 killed as powerful earthquake hits New Zealand</title><link>http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/rest-of-world/Two-killed-as-powerful-earthquake-hits-New-Zealand/articleshow/55405986.cms</link><description>WELLINGTON: A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground.

wordCount="615">WELLINGTON: A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground. Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region at the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. Prime Minister John Key told a dawn news conference in the capital of Wellington, where the quake was also felt strongly, that two people had been killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. "It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington," Key told reporters, although he stopped short of calling a national emergency. "There will be quite major costs around roads and infrastructure." Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, while roads were blocked by landslips. But a tsunami warning that led to mass evacuations was downgraded after large swells hit Wellington, in the North Island, and Christchurch, the South Island's largest city. The first tremor, just 23 km (14 miles) deep, struck the Pacific island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5, while the US Geological Survey put it at 7.8. New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region. RESCUE PERSONNEL St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to Kaikoura, where at least one of the casualties was located. The South Island town, a popular destination for whale watching, was completely cut off and officials said there were reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, where frequent aftershocks continued to be felt hours after the first quake, residents heading for higher ground caused gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington International airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centres were accepting residents. Police set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas.

Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island.

"The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island.

There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat.

Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centred inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114033200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="channelnewsasia-70dcc710d15384b5c9333d459668138c" duplicate="reuters-b3aa64342b7e8d470be8820f130005ae"><title>Two killed as powerful earthquake hits New Zealand</title><link>http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/world/two-killed-as-powerful-earthquake-hits-new-zealand/3285420.html</link><description>WELLINGTON: A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground.

Christchurch (New Zealand) (AFP) - At least two people were killed and more fatalities were feared after a powerful 7.8 earthquake struck New Zealand just after midnight Monday, Prime Minister John Key said. Nearly seven hours after the first quake struck, the prime minister confirmed two fatalities, saying "we cannot rule out" that number will rise. "At this point we are unable to give precise details of what caused those fatalities," Key said, adding that communication problems made it difficult to get information from the affected areas of the South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113194100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="itv-99daf7fd85005411d1a4c6e076a10e94"><title>One person dead after powerful earthquake triggers tsunami in New Zealand</title><link>http://www.itv.com/news/2016-11-13/powerful-7-4-earthquake-strikes-near-to-christchurch/</link><description>One person has died after a large 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck New Zealand - causing a tsunami to hit the South Island's east coast.

The quake, northeast of the country's largest city Christchurch, hit just after midnight local time on Sunday, according to the US Geological Survey.

Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, roads were blocked by landslips. A tsunami was generated with people on the South Island's east coast warned to seek higher ground. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.

One woman, whose house is on the South Island, said: "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out". Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand. English backpackers Phil and Jane Coles were sleeping in a hostel when the earthquake hit: "We're on the second floor and just felt the movement. My husband didn't actually wake up to start with. I think I said: 'Quake, wake up'. "The quake was quite slow to start off with, then built up to quite a high one It was hard to walk across the room."

New Zealand's Civil Defence announced that a tsunami had been generated by the quake and said that waves could be up to five metres and continue for "several hours". It urged an immediate evacuation of the area and issued safety advice to all those affected. "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming that may be bigger than what has come before."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113184400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="reuters-in-651248de843b8fd4ca64f9b299adacee" duplicate="channelnewsasia-70dcc710d15384b5c9333d459668138c"><title>Two killed as powerful earthquake hits New Zealand</title><link>http://in.reuters.com/article/quake-newzealand-idINKBN1380CG?feedType=RSS&amp;feedName=worldNews&amp;utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+reuters%2FINworldNews+%28News+%2F+IN+%2F+World+News%29</link><description>WELLINGTON A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground.

who="579538" verb="told">"It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington,"</emm:quote><emm:tonality>-16</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="651">WELLINGTON A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground. Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region at the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. Prime Minister John Key told a dawn news conference in the capital of Wellington, where the quake was also felt strongly, that two people had been killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. "It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington," Key told reporters, although he stopped short of calling a national emergency. "There will be quite major costs around roads and infrastructure." Emergency officials were meeting later on Monday morning, added Key. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, while roads were blocked by landslips. But a tsunami warning that led to mass evacuations was downgraded after large swells hit Wellington, in the North Island, and Christchurch, the South Island's largest city. The first tremor, just 23 km (14 miles) deep, struck the Pacific island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5, while the U.S. Geological Survey put it at 7.8. New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region. RESCUE PERSONNEL St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to Kaikoura, where at least one of the casualties was located. The South Island town, a popular destination for whale watching, was completely cut off and officials said there were reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, where frequent aftershocks continued to be felt hours after the first quake, residents heading for higher ground caused gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington International airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centres were accepting residents. Police set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centred inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.

WELLINGTON A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground.Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region at the epicenter of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. Prime Minister John Key told a dawn news conference in the capital of Wellington, where the quake was also felt strongly, that two people had been killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura."It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington," Key told reporters, although he stopped short of calling a national emergency. "There will be quite major costs around roads and infrastructure."Emergency officials were meeting later on Monday morning, added Key.Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, while roads were blocked by landslips. But a tsunami warning that led to mass evacuations was downgraded after large swells hit Wellington, in the North Island, and Christchurch, the South Island's largest city.The first tremor, just 23 km (14 miles) deep, struck the Pacific island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5, while the U.S. Geological Survey put it at 7.8. New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region.RESCUE PERSONNEL St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to Kaikoura, where at least one of the casualties was located. The South Island town, a popular destination for whale watching, was completely cut off and officials said there were reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, where frequent aftershocks continued to be felt hours after the first quake, residents heading for higher ground caused gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city."I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house.Richard Maclean, a spokesman for Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings.Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington International airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centers were accepting residents. Police set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas.Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island."The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island.There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat.Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centered inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.

The quake, northeast of the country's largest city Christchurch, hit just after midnight local time on Sunday, according to the US Geological Survey. A tsunami was generated with people on the South Island's east coast warned to seek higher ground.

New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. One woman, whose house is on the South Island, said: "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out". Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand's Civil Defence announced that a tsunami had been generated by the quake and said that waves could continue for "several hours". It urged an immediate evacuation of the area and issued safety advice to all those affected.

The extent of damage caused by the quake remains unclear. Christchurch is still recovering from a 6.3 magnitude earthquake in 2011 which killed 185 people and caused widespread damage.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113164400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="msn-uk-1b0fcbf6cf514d3f02407076a0ed571d"><title>Deaths after strong NZ quake sparks tsunami Sky News</title><link>http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/deaths-after-strong-nz-quake-sparks-tsunami/ar-AAker13</link><description>© Getty The quake caused a tsunami.

A tsunami has hit New Zealand after a powerful earthquake struck the country's South Island, with the country's prime minister confirming two deaths. Thousands of people on the country's east coast fled after a warning to move to higher ground. The quake, which measured 7.5 in magnitude, led to waves up to two metres high, including in the Kaikoura area. The Civil Defence Ministry described the tsunami as "an event of life-threatening or national significance". It tweeted: "A tsunami has been generated, the first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island." "If you are in a low lying area on the East Coast of the North, South or Chatham Islands move immediately to higher ground." The country's PM, John Key, later said the tsunami warnings had been downgraded to coastal warnings. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. St John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters to the epicentre of the quake - 57 miles (91km) north of the South Island city of Christchurch. Mr Key also told reporters that a military helicopter was heading to Kaikoura. The quake hit just after midnight local time. The initial tremor was followed by aftershocks, including several above magnitude 6. Sirens sounded in Christchurch - badly damaged by in a deadly 6.3-magnitude quake in 2011 - and police have set up road blocks to stop people returning to lower-lying areas. Strong jolts were also felt in Wellington, some 120 miles (200km) north and there was gridlock on roads leading to Mount Victoria - a hill overlooking the capital. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," said Wellington resident Howard Warner Officials said there was structural damage to some buildings in Wellington and people were being warned to say away from the central business district. The train network was closed for checks but the airport was still operating normally. New Zealand's Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information, listed dozens of quakes between 3.8 and 6.6. Hugh Sintes, from Christchurch, told Sky News: "My wife had gone off to the bathroom, I had just lay down on my bed and all of all of a sudden the bed started wobbling and it got more and more intense. "And I thought 'okay this is getting a bit serious'. It continued on and on - it got quite concerning." The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of nine miles (15km). Shallow tremors are felt more strongly on the surface. Rick Kiesseg said on Twitter: "Primary New Zealand #earthquake lasted about a minute. Long, long, long shake and roll. About 17 aftershocks so far, biggest mag 6.1" The February 2011 earthquake hit just a few miles outside Christchurch, New Zealand's third biggest city, causing widespread damage and leaving 185 people dead. New Zealand lies on the boundary of two tectonic plates and is on the so-called 'Ring of Fire' - an area prone to earthquakes. The country experience as many as 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113201100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="news-yahoo-72ec3555796b90a8f476527719f21cdb"><title>Two killed as powerful earthquake hits New Zealand</title><link>https://www.yahoo.com/news/magnitude-7-4-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-zealand-112145924.html?ref=gs</link><description>By Charlotte Greenfield.

WELLINGTON (Reuters) - A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground. Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region at the epicenter of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. Prime Minister John Key told a dawn news conference in the capital of Wellington, where the quake was also felt strongly, that two people had been killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. "It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington," Key told reporters, although he stopped short of calling a national emergency. "There will be quite major costs around roads and infrastructure." Emergency officials were meeting later on Monday morning, added Key. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, while roads were blocked by landslips. But a tsunami warning that led to mass evacuations was downgraded after large swells hit Wellington, in the North Island, and Christchurch, the South Island's largest city. The first tremor, just 23 km (14 miles) deep, struck the Pacific island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5, while the U.S. Geological Survey put it at 7.8. New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region. RESCUE PERSONNEL. St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to Kaikoura, where at least one of the casualties was located. The South Island town, a popular destination for whale watching, was completely cut off and officials said there were reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, where frequent aftershocks continued to be felt hours after the first quake, residents heading for higher ground caused gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington International airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centers were accepting residents. Police set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centered inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.

A tsunami was possible and residents on the South Island's east coast were told to seek higher ground by the country's Civil Defence agency. The USGS said the latest quake , which struck about 57 miles northeast of Christchurch, on the country's South Island, was magnitude 7.8. However, New Zealand Civil Defence put the strength at 5.6 and reported a series of aftershocks.

In a text message, Communications Secretary Martin Andanar said the Philippine embassy in Wellington continues to monitor the situation closely. Updates will be made through the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA), Andanar added. "Meantime, we enjoin everyone to pray for the safety of those who maybe affected in New Zealand and every Filipino in the area," Andanar said. An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the U.S. Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defense and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country's entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two meters (6 feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science, said a tidal signal or surge of up to one meter (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. - with Reuters.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113190400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="belfasttelegraph-d09b7ac640d6afc74dc4be5097d352d9" duplicate="AP-5fd464d8a2dc505d688b8f18106ade9e"><title>Earthquake strikes near New Zealand city Christchurch A powerful earthquake has struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch, with strong jolts felt more than 120 miles away in the capital Wellington.</title><link>http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/world-news/earthquake-strikes-near-new-zealand-city-christchurch-35211279.html</link><description>A powerful earthquake has struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch, with strong jolts felt more than 120 miles away in the capital Wellington.

The 7.4-magnitude quake struck just after midnight on Sunday and was centred 57 miles north-east of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. An earthquake in 2011 in Christchurch killed 185 people.

The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 16 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management issued a national advisory saying it was assessing details of the earthquake. It warned people to expect aftershocks and many had been felt with the largest a magnitude 5.6 tremor soon after the initial quake. It said a tsunami was possible. "Anyone near the east coast of the South Island should move to high ground," it said.

Stuff.co.nz said hundreds of people were on the streets of Wellington as building alarms sounded and fire trucks and police cars headed to the CBD. Near Civic Square, hotel guests huddled together in bathrobes while they waited for their buildings to be cleared. Windows in some high-rise office buildings had smashed, while plaster and masonry appeared to have fallen down from some buildings. A Christchurch Police spokeswoman said the only call they had initially regarding the earthquake was a hole in the road in Hundalee, North Canterbury. She said there had not yet been any calls about damage in Christchurch. "Just be careful on the roads in case there's damage," she said. St John Ambulance said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre", it said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113132500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="cityam-1370a02ffe1536726ceecbb634a682b6"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after earthquake</title><link>http://www.cityam.com/253509/tsunami-hits-new-zealand-after-earthquake</link><description>A tsunami has hit New Zealand after a 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck the island at around midnight local time.

It was followed by a series of smaller aftershocks, though, some are still measuring more than magnitude five. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management (MCDEM) has warned those on the east coast to move to higher ground. It said the first waves were expected to arrive at the Chatham Islands to the east of the main island, immediately and that there will continue to be tsunami activity for some time.

Describing it as ‘an event of life-threatening or national significance’ the department of civil defence warned people all along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.9 quake struck in the early hours of Monday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist with the GNS Science, said the government’s earthquake monitoring service, the quakes were close to the coast. ‘They’ve been quite large. We’ve also seen a signal on the tide gauge at Kaikoura which is up to one metre (three feet) so it’s reasonably significant, so people should take this seriously.’

A tsunami has been generated. Waves are expected to arrive at the Chatham islands immediately – anyone in the Chathams should move to high ground urgently. The first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island and it may arrive in Eastern Coast of the North and South Islands of New Zealand shorly (including Wellington, Christchurch and the Chatham Islands. The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours. Move inland or to higher ground immediately. People in coastal areas should:

Stay out of the water (sea, rivers and estuaries, including boating activities) Stay off beaches and shore areas; Do not go sightseeing; Share this information with family, neighbours and friends; Listen to the radio and/or TV for updates; Follow instructions of local civil defence authorities.

The ministry had earlier sent out a message on Twitter saying there was no tsunami threat to the country. It then sent out another message – ‘situation has changed – tsunami is possible’ – before reporting that a tsunami had, in fact, hit. Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, more than 120 miles away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch. People have been posting pictures of themselves escaping Wellington.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113153700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="trendnews-az-84e8f2424a507721311ae5c804b5e155"><title>New Zealand south island hit by 7.9-magnitude earthquake</title><link>http://en.trend.az/world/other/2684557.html</link><description>The earthquake measured at 7.9 on the Richter scale struck New Zealand's South Island, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Center (EMSC) said on Sunday, Sputnik International reported.

A powerful earthquake has struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch, with strong jolts felt over 200 kilometres away in the capital, Wellington. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries. There was no immediate danger of a tsunami, according to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center. The magnitude-7.4 quake struck just after midnight Sunday and was centred 93 kilometres northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometres. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicentre, power was knocked out in some places and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake was centred 57 miles north-east of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centres. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire", an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

"It was just completely insane. It was one of the scariest things I've ever experienced," Proctor said over the phone from Hokitika, where he happens to be on a cycling tour with a friend. The small seaside town is on the other side of the country's South Island from Christchurch, or about 300 kilometres from the epicentre of the "It was just swaying everything back and forth," he said, describing coffee pots falling to the ground and doors slamming. "Everybody on the entire South Island could feel it." After about two minutes of heavy shaking, Proctor says everyone ran out into the parking lot — at which point his main concern became the threat of a tsunami. He says although he had felt the quake, he didn't know exactly where it had hit and how it might impact the coast. "Is some giant wave going to be coming to carry me away?" he wondered.

Aftershocks all night. Proctor says he was relieved when the tsunami warning system didn't go off where he was. It did, however, do so on the east coast of the island, where two metre waves hit the shore. When he want back to bed, Proctor and those around him felt aftershocks all night long. They could still go on for weeks or even months. "It's kind of unsettling because you just think, well what do I do? It's normal, but the earth is moving constantly," he said. "But at the same time, there's no damage here. People are kind of moving on with their lives." Railway lines on the South Island have been shut down, as well as ferries on the North Island. He says all day, the earthquake is the only thing people have been talking about. 

Emergency services issued a tsunami warning, urging people along the east coast to move to higher ground to avoid tsunami waves. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. local time. (Ross Setford/SNPA via Associated Press)

Memories of Christchurch. "Obviously, it brings back everything about Christchurch for everybody," he said, referring to The previous morning, Proctor and his friend had been in Christchurch, from where they caught a train across the island to Greymouth and then biked down to Hokitika. He said he was struck by how much damage there still is in Christchurch — whole blocks cordoned off, with crumbling buildings. "The entire city looks like it has been the subject of an air raid or a bomb," he said.

For Proctor, it's an unsettling reminder of what could happen on Canada's West Coast. "Seeing all of that and seeing this, particularly coming from Vancouver, you can kind of see what we could be in for at one point," he said. "I've lived in Vancouver for decades, obviously always with the fear of an earthquake. But it's like OK, that's what it would feel like. It's pretty scary."

At least two people have died after a powerful earthquake struck New Zealand, Prime Minister John Key has said.

Mr Key did not provide any further details at a news conference on Monday morning in the capital Wellington.

Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight 132 miles south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113193000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="chicagotribune-796c5fd91bb61cf24922ff1a159cd53a"><title>Photos: New Zealand earthquake</title><link>http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-photos-new-zealand-earthquake-20161113-photogallery.html</link><description>A broken window in Wellington, New Zealand, after an earthquake shock the capital Nov. 14, 2016.

The department of civil defence warned people all along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck in the early hours of Monday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, more than 120 miles away. The streets of inner city Wellington are thronged as thousands of citizens evacuate. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch.

Original report: A powerful earthquake has struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch, with strong jolts felt more than 120 miles away in the capital Wellington. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries and there was no immediate danger of a tsunami, according to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre. The 7.4-magnitude quake struck just after midnight on Sunday and was centred 57 miles north-east of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. An earthquake in 2011 in Christchurch killed 185 people.

The deaths were confirmed by the country's Prime Minister John Key. The earthquake was centred around the Christchurch area which was previously hit by a quake in 2011 that left many dead and the city badly damaged. It was followed by a series of smaller aftershocks though, some are still measuring more than magnitude five and a tsunami. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management (MCDEM) has warned those on the east coast to move to higher ground. It said the first waves were expected to arrive at the Chatham Islands to the east of the main island, immediately and that there will continue to be tsunami activity for some time. The shocks from the quake were felt in Wellington, New Zealand's capital city on the north island and as far as Auckland further north, and most of both islands to some degree. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre noted the power of the earthquake could be as much as magnitude 7.9.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113200600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="themirror-ebaa0bb8220d1f0f91d2029a6c2eb3b2"><title>New Zealand tsunami: Live updates as families warned to flee coast 'immediately' after 7.4-magnitude earthquake</title><link>http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/new-zealand-tsunami-feared-live-9251551</link><description>Earthquake shook home 'like jelly', says terrified resident.

The aftershocks have felt like we’re a ship at sea.” Heather said her parents in Wellington were without power and had some belongings damaged as the earthquake shook their home. She live-tweeted the experience:

Tsunami expected to hit New Zealand's east coast shortly. New Zealand’s emergency management agency says a tsunami is expected to hit the country’s east coast shortly. It warned: “The tsunami may arrive in the Eastern Coast of the North Island shortly. Move inland or to higher ground immediately. “The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours.”

'It felt like swaying and a wave' British chef Tim Owen, 29, was at home in Halswell, a satellite town of Christchurch, when the earthquake hit. He told Mirror Online: “It went on for like a minute or so, which is quite long. It felt like swaying and like a wave. “We just got up from the couch and stood in the doorway. It does make you feel very anxious not knowing if it will get worse or when it may stop.” This photo was tweeted by Richard Bicknell:</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113134200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="straitstimesSG-adf27c69b3662346c9be32e23be4c1a7" duplicate="cyprus-mail-be52d73ccf7749ef90ff94ff97725ccc"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after 7.8-magnitude earthquake strikes near Christchurch</title><link>http://www.straitstimes.com/asia/australianz/magnitude-74-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand-usgs</link><description>CHRISTCHURCH (AFP, REUTERS) - An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the US Geological Survey said, generating a tsunami that hit the north-east coast of the South Island.

New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to 1m had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand.

“A tsunami is possible,” the national civil defence organisation, which is in charge of New Zealand’s emergency management, said in a bulletin. “The first wave activity may not be the most significant,” it said, adding tsunami activity would continue for several hours. It said on its website that t he National Crisis Management Centre is being activated.

Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, said the shaking lasted a “long” time. “We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up,” she told AFP. She said there was no sign of damage on her street and the power was still on, adding that she was worried about towns and villages closer to the epicentre. “We’re getting aftershocks at the moment. We’re going to stock up on water supplies just in case.” Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. RNZ said the Wellington City Council had received multiple reports of significant damage. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113144100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="themalaymailonline-a32a76d0d5c9e13d7470337bd413d64b"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after series of strong quakes</title><link>http://www.themalaymailonline.com/world/article/tsunami-hits-new-zealand-after-series-of-strong-quakes</link><description>People stand on a street strewn with broken glass from windows in Wellington early on November 14, 2016 following an earthquake centred some 90 kilometres north of New Zealand’s South Island city of Christchurch. — AFP pic WELLINGTON, Nov 13 — An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T15:25+0100</pubDate><source url="http://www.themalaymailonline.com/feed/rss" country="MY">themalaymailonline</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>themalaymailonline-a32a76d0d5c9e13d7470337bd413d64b</guid><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="Defence[1];

New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two metres could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand’s Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. USGS said the quake was centred 91km north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, said officials had gone door-to-door evacuating residents. “Everyone seems OK here,” he told RNZ. “There’s a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn’t look like anything too bad has happened.” Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said residents had been evacuating the city’s southern coastal suburbs due to the tsunami threat and there had been reports of structural damage to several buildings. “We’ve got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves,” he told RNZ. Several roads around the South Island had been closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. — Reuters.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113152500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="arabnews-0397e4bb0b33b034437ac57a20cc029d" duplicate="thenews-pk-521008fb609444a5471abbf57fbdd7a5"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand</title><link>http://www.arabnews.com/node/1010456/world</link><description>WELLINGTON: An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the US Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami.

The Chathams are a small group of islands about 400 miles east of Christchurch, the largest city in the south island. Christchurch suffered a 6.3-magnitude earthquake in 2011 that destroyed large parts of the central city and killed 185 people. Monday’s earthquake, which happened just after midnight local time, was centered in Culverden, about 60 miles north of Christchurch, and was 10 miles deep. Local media reported big changes in the water level in Kaikoura, a coastal city north of Christchurch, and at least one building was said to have collapsed. Large aftershocks were continuing. This is a developing story.

"From our measurements it seems this one started onshore about 15 kilometres underground and ruptured the crust from west to east in a slightly north-easterly direction." GeoNet released an initial report of expected likely scenarios. Scenario 1 (Very likely): a normal aftershock sequence over the next few months. This means gradually diminishing size and frequency of seismic events. Scenario 2 (Likely): Possible rupture earthquake of magnitude 6 in North Canterbury and/or offshore. Scenario 3 (Unlikely): Another large earthquake above magnitude 7 within a month in the Marlborough and Cook Strait regions. GeoNet measured the quake at a magnitude of 7.5, although the United States Geological Survey said it was of a 7.8 magnitude and Geoscience Australia said the event was of a 7.9 magnitude. "There are a number of ways we can look at an earthquake," Mr Jaksa said. He said GeoNet relied on measuring close readings, which can "saturate" the measurement devices causing what he called "clipping".

The first measurements from an earthquake are the "p-waves", which are compression waves travelling through the earth, much like sound waves. Mr Jaksa said these dispersion waves allow detection of a quake's location and an initial estimate of its size. Following the "p-waves" seismologists measure "s-waves", which are slower moving shear waves travelling perpendicular to the direction of the p-waves. Seismologists then measure even slower surface waves that shake the crust in rolling waves allowing a better understanding of the event.

Mr Jaksa said GeoNet relied on more localised measurements, whereas Geoscience Australia incorporated more longer-period waves. USGS uses a similar method, explaining why the US and Australian agencies have issued similar magnitudes for the event. He said the NZ measurement was more like the older Richter scale, which measured amplitudes of seismic waves. The current scales incorporate measurements of earth movement. Ms Little said that GeoNet's use of local stations gave it a better ability to locate the epicentre and determine whether it was one or two seismic events. "We're pretty confident it was two," she said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114024100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="maitlandmercury-87a8cc1e7a31e566a62fcdbfedf9d702" duplicate="theherald-au-87a8cc1e7a31e566a62fcdbfedf9d702"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Hundreds of aftershocks pepper North and South islands</title><link>http://www.maitlandmercury.com.au/story/4290968/new-zealand-earthquake-hundreds-of-aftershocks-pepper-north-and-south-islands/?cs=12</link><description>UPDATE: Mag 7.9 South Island of New Zealand. 14 Nov 2016 00:03 (NZDT).

"From our measurements it seems this one started onshore about 15 kilometres underground and ruptured the crust from west to east in a slightly north-easterly direction." GeoNet released an initial report of expected likely scenarios. Scenario 1 (Very likely): a normal aftershock sequence over the next few months. This means gradually diminishing size and frequency of seismic events. Scenario 2 (Likely): Possible rupture earthquake of magnitude 6 in North Canterbury and/or offshore. Scenario 3 (Unlikely): Another large earthquake above magnitude 7 within a month in the Marlborough and Cook Strait regions. GeoNet measured the quake at a magnitude of 7.5, although the United States Geological Survey said it was of a 7.8 magnitude and Geoscience Australia said the event was of a 7.9 magnitude. "There are a number of ways we can look at an earthquake," Mr Jaksa said. He said GeoNet relied on measuring close readings, which can "saturate" the measurement devices causing what he called "clipping".

The first measurements from an earthquake are the "p-waves", which are compression waves travelling through the earth, much like sound waves. Mr Jaksa said these dispersion waves allow detection of a quake's location and an initial estimate of its size. Following the "p-waves" seismologists measure "s-waves", which are slower moving shear waves travelling perpendicular to the direction of the p-waves. Seismologists then measure even slower surface waves that shake the crust in rolling waves allowing a better understanding of the event.

Mr Jaksa said GeoNet relied on more localised measurements, whereas Geoscience Australia incorporated more longer-period waves. USGS uses a similar method, explaining why the US and Australian agencies have issued similar magnitudes for the event. He said the NZ measurement was more like the older Richter scale, which measured amplitudes of seismic waves. The current scales incorporate measurements of earth movement. Ms Little said that GeoNet's use of local stations gave it a better ability to locate the epicentre and determine whether it was one or two seismic events. "We're pretty confident it was two," she said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114025300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="themirror-a37bdec6fd5835aa117d14b4057da1c3"><title>Families warned to flee New Zealand coast 'immediately' over tsunami sparked by 7.8-magnitude earthquake</title><link>http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/powerful-earthquake-hits-christchurch-new-9251440</link><description>Kaitlin in Wellington posted a picture of her home, showing her possessions strewn around the room following the earthquake.

The New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency management tweeted: "Situation has changed - tsunami is possible. "People near the coast in the south island should move to high ground or inland." Today's earthquake measured more powerfully on the Richter scale than 2011's 6.3 quake. Power lines and phone lines are said to be down, including emergency lines to police, fire and ambulance services. Others reported that the emergency number 111 was back up and running. Anthropology student Heather McMillan said her home shook “like jelly” when the earthquake struck as she was getting ready for bed, and she feared it was going to collapse. The quake hit 57 miles north east of the city, which is on the east coast of the country's South Island. The 20-year-old told Mirror Online: “When it started it was really big so I thought it was going to be short but it kept going for a good few minutes and felt like the second floor was going to fall down. “Very quickly you realise it's an earthquake because I’ve felt one before. “But this was a different level. I honestly thought it was going to last for 20 minutes or longer. “I live in the second storey of a flat and it was like a rolling feeling from the house. The aftershocks have felt like we're a ship at sea. ”She said the tremor lasted around five minutes but it felt like forever". She added: “I think it's one of those moments when you start thinking whether this is it? Like the big earthquake that's going to put Christchurch back into the place it was five years ago?” Heather said her flat did not suffer any damage, but her parents in Wellington were without power and had some belongings damaged as the earthquake shook their home. Patsy Knight told Mirror Online that aftershocks were still continuing 20 minutes after the quake. She said: "We're in Wellington and absolutely terrifying. Smashed glass everywhere, but thankfully all good. Not much sleep happening though, kids with us. Aftershocks continuously happening!"</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113141300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="express-3bbe82b56dec6749cef7c8ef94c9672a"><title>Argentina earthquake: Strong 6.2 magnitude tremor strikes north-west of country</title><link>http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/731833/Argentina-earthquake-richter-scale-magnitude-New-Zealand-Chile?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+daily-express-world-news+%28Daily+Express+%3A%3A+World+Feed%29</link><description>USGS Vickiie Oliphant Argentina has been hit by a 6.2 magnitude earthquake The earthquake struck at just after 8am local time or 2pm GMT, and centred around 16 miles norther of Chilecito in La Rioja - near the Chilean border.

And experts say it had a depth of around 62 miles. Authorities in Argentina and nearby Chile say there have been no immediate reports of damage or injuries so far. GETTY The Richter scale recorded the earthquake was of a 6.2 magnitude Another 5.7 earthquake has also been recorded just a few miles north, with a depth of 121 km. Villagers reported that the movement was felt in the neighboring provinces of Catamarca, Tucuman and Cordoba. The country's seismic authority also reported three smaller earthquakes on Sunday. GOOGLE The quake struck near the Chilean border.

The incident follows a 6.4-magnitude earthquake of "great intensity" earlier this month in central Chile, which shook buildings in the capital Santiago. Panicked residents' frantic phone calls clogged cellular networks and land lines in the wake of the hit. And earlier today, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck north of Christchurch, New Zealand.

New Zealand's Civil Defence authority described the threat of the wave as “an event of life-threatening or national significance” and warned people to stay away from beaches along the entire coastline. Officials have ordered people living in coastal areas to head for higher ground or get as far inland as possible. More to follow..

Thousands of people along New Zealand’s east coast fled their homes to head for higher ground as emergency services warned of destructive waves of up to five meters in some areas. “The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been,” said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. “Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before.” St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicenter of the quake, 91 km north-northeast of Christchurch, where a 6.3 quake in 2011 killed 185 people, on New Zealand’s South Island. “We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura,” Dion Rosario, St John Incident Controller, said in a statement. “However, at this stage we do not have specifics.” Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. The first tremor and a series of aftershocks were felt throughout most of New Zealand. There were no immediate reports of deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout overlooking the low-lying coastal city. “I’m just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as Iam,” Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. “We’ve got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves,” he told Radio New Zealand. Other residents reported glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. A spokeswoman for the city council of Christchurch, where tsunami sirens rent the air, said its “emergency operations center” was active. Several roads around the South Island were closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. New Zealand’s Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier.

Thousands of people along New Zealand’s east coast fled their homes to head for higher ground as emergency services warned of destructive waves of up to five metres (yards) in some areas. “The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been,” said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. “Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before.” St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicentre of the quake, 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, where a 6.3 quake in 2011 killed 185 people, on New Zealand’s South Island. “We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura,” Dion Rosario, St John Incident Controller, said in a statement. “However, at this stage we do not have specifics.” Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. The first tremor and a series of aftershocks were felt throughout most of New Zealand. There were no immediate reports of deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout overlooking the low-lying coastal city. “I’m just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am,” Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. “We’ve got reports of broken water pipes and lots and lots of things off desks and shelves,” he told Radio New Zealand. Other residents reported glass had fallen from buildings into the streets and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. A spokeswoman for the city council of Christchurch, where tsunami sirens rent the air, said its “emergency operations centre” was active. Several roads around the South Island were closed and damage to power and phone networks was reported. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. New Zealand’s Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113170500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-34ec2a8f20dfcd7cb7d7025cbf8be711"><title>7.5 quake rattles Taranaki, leaves homes without power</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86419116/7-5-quake-rattles-Taranaki-leaves-homes-without-power</link><description>Hundreds of Taranaki residents are without power are a massive 7.5 earthquake which was felt across New Zealand.

More than 550 properties have been affected, although some areas of New Plymouth, including Westown, had power restored by 3am. Information on the Powerco website said it hoped to restore electricity by about 9.40am. READ MORE:

While the earthquake was widely felt by people in the region, there have been no official reports of damage. New Plymouth senior station officer Steve Dombroski said no calls had been lodged around the city and he was not aware of any major damage in other parts of the region. "We've got away pretty lightly," he said. Taranaki Civil Defence senior emergency management officer Shane Briggs said people should expect aftershocks, some of which would be strong, and should ensure items in their homes are safe and secure. He said while he was not aware of any major damage being reported, a few buildings in the district had suffered superficial damage but had been subsequently checked over by engineers. 

Taranaki residents took to Facebook to share their experiences of the quake overnight. Petreena Taylor described the earthquake as very scary. "Wow that was big for sure felt it up Carrington Rd. Felt like the house was going to fly away," she posted. Codie Roberts shared Taylor's fear. "I hate how big and scary this was. Completely shaken and wide awake now." A tsunami warning for the country was issued in the wake of the quake, but has since been been downgraded. A marine and beach threat is in place for parts of New Zealand, from Napier to the north of Dunedin, Cook Strait coastal areas and the Chatham Islands. Briggs said people should exercise caution around Taranaki's coastline, with unusual tidal activity expected. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113201800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="euronews-en-8f4e0406d3f3834e278e0816cdee6dd3"><title>'The emergency number was out of action' New Zealand hit by major earth tremor</title><link>http://www.euronews.com/2016/11/13/the-emergency-number-was-out-of-action-new-zealand-hit-by-major-earth-tremor?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+euronews%2Fen%2Fnews+%28euronews+-+news+-+en%29</link><description>New Zealand’s South Island has been hit by a powerful tremor.

Severe 6.6 earthquake hits Hanmer Springs, felt widely across New Zealand Stuff.co.nz News (@NZStuff) November 13, 2016 Euronews correspondent Seamus Kerney is in Auckland, this is what he had to say:“The important figure to note here is the depth of the quake, because that will indicate how severe the damage or the casualties might be.

Damage to a Nelson City supermarket following Donie O'Sullivan (@donie) November 13, 2016 The experts here are saying the shallowness of the quake was about 15 kms. So we are still assessing, at the moment,the scale of the damage, as I say its the middle of the night.

The area that was actually the epicentre of the quake is about 20 kilometers east of the town called Hanmer Springs that is not a well built up area, it is actually remote, rural country.

UPDATE : Tsunami warning issued after magnitude-7.4 quake hits New Zealand CBS News (@CBSNews) November 13, 2016 The initial report said that power lines were knocked down, the phone system failed, people even talked about the emergency 111 number was actually out of action.

So it is very difficult for the authorities to get an assesment, a quick assesment of the casualties and the damage. Already tonight we have photographs on the web showing damage in some of the areas close to the epicentre, not right at Cheviot, which is one of the towns affected, but we are getting reports there is severe damage, but I think we are going to have to wait until daylight in New Zealand to really get a really clear, full picture of what actually has happened.’‘</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113170000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-50e53549ff9a089589f8928e72e0567a"><title>Severe 7.5 earthquake hits Hanmer Springs, felt widely across New Zealand as tsunami warning issued</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86416268/Severe-7-5-earthquake-hits-Hanmer-Springs-felt-widely-across-New-Zealand-as-tsunami-warning-issued</link><description>"There are six people in Waiau nobody can get hold of."

Despite calling and messaging, nobody could get hold of them, she said. Power and phone lines were believed to be out for the small town, only a few kilometres east of earthquake's epicentre. A slip has closed the main road to Hanmer Springs village, near where the magnitude 7.5 earthquake was centred. The NZ Transport Agency said the slip was blocking both lanes on State Highway 7A, on the eastern side of the Waiau Ferry Bridge. State Highway 7 is closed between Waipara and Springs Junction (the Lewis Pass) due to earthquake damage, NZTA says. Road users are advised to take extra care. Southern fire communications shift manager Tim Reynolds said there were reports of"minor" damage coming from the Cheviot area. "They are just staring to come through now. We are getting multiple reports of damage, but nothing specific as yet," he said. "Mainly things to do with roading and bridges." Hurunui District Councillor for the Cheviot Ward, Vince Daly, did not believe there was serious damage in the area. "It's sort of just little ones [aftershocks] now. "I've heard the fire brigade is driving around, but I'm pretty sure there's no real [damage], it hasn't been too bad," he said. The state highway near Hundalee was damaged, he said. "The State Highway up the Hundalees . . . talking to my cousin, his wife's trapped on the road up there. "There's cracks all through the road on the Hundalees, just up from Goose Bay," he said. Jane Thompson, who lives near Cheviot in North Canterbury, said it was a "long, rolling earthquake". She had spoken to some residents in the Cheviot township and heard reports of minor damage. "We are 8 kilometres from coast so are staying put," she said. WELLINGTON. Residents of Lyall Bay are evacuating after a tsunami warning was issued for all coastal areas of New Zealand. In the CBD, hundreds of people were on the streets as building alarms sound and fire trucks and police cars head around the CBD. Windows in some high-rise office buildings have smashed, while plaster and masonry appears to have fallen down from some buildings. Near Civic Square, hotel guests huddled together in bathrobes while they waited for their buildings to be cleared. However, Courtenay St bar patrons are still drinking pints and smoking as the chaos unfolds. In Wakefield St, directly opposite the Wellington City Council offices, large chunks of masonry have fallen from a building, smashing glass below. Emergency services have shut the street down. Along Willis Street in Wellington's CBD, people are lining the streets and sitting in hotel lobbies. Aftershocks were continuing to be felt in the city. Wellington mayor Justin Lester said there were reports of damage in the central city but it was not yet known how bad it was. "There's no need for any concern at the moment but we're just watching as things progress because it sounds like there's been some buildings damaged in the CBD." Wellington resident Daina Lundberg was in bed in a Featherston St apartment next door to where masonry fell. Her husband ran to get their daughter out of bed. "We could hardly stand up - it was that bad", she said. Conan Hayes, 18, was inside Willis St student accommodation when the first quake struck. Dozens of residents in the multi-storey building were forced to evacuate, many huddling together under duvets in a carpark. "Really we were just all in bed asleep and then we started to hear noises outside, like cracks and stuff, then this huge earthquake happened and it shook and shook and shook," Hayes said. "Books fell off our shelves, food out of the cupboard," he said. "The length of it all was really the most scariest part." His flatmate Jade Bartlett, 19, then rushed into his room and burst into tears. "I was freaking out. I was so scared," Bartlett explained. "A lot of things are cracked, so now the water is dripping down," explained fellow flatmate, 22-year-old Rachelle Gabriels. CHRISTCHURCH. Tsunami sirens started sounding along Christchurch's coastline at 2.14am. The sirens, located from Brooklands to Taylors Mistake, are meant to sound for about 10 minutes to alert residents they could need to evacuate. A significant amount of traffic can be seen heading away from New Brighton and other coastal suburbs towards central Christchurch and the Port Hills. Police are driving around the New Brighton area with flashing lights on. Christchurch Coastal Ward Councillor David East said the council had issued a precautionary message for people to stay away from the beach, but there was "no real threat" of a tsunami. East lives two blocks away from the water at North Beach, and said he would be staying at home. "Stay off the beaches and out of the water," he said. In the CBD, hotels and occupied buildings had been evacuated. Many people are standing around in the middle of the street, away from buildings, calling people to let them know they're fine. Some people are venturing back inside, because nobody seems to be enforcing the evacuations. People around city centre have been let back in to hotels. Couples were seen hugging and calling relatives, grabbing towels for blankets. Part of the Heritage Christchurch building on Worcester St was heard crumbling by a nearby road-worker. WAIKATO. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113144100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-b1e9b5d71eebceff80cfe472521828d0"><title>Tourists astounded by post-earthquake generosity</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=11747728&amp;ref=rss</link><description>An Australian family in New Zealand for a holiday are astounded at the "generosity" of Wellingtonians following the earthquake.

Sandra Wardrop and her family from New South Wales were in Wellington celebrating her son William's 12th birthday. The Wardrop family were evacuated from the Park Hotel on The Terrace and were waiting to be able to go back and get their luggage and car before continuing on their trip to Taranaki. They were still in the Beehive foyer at 11.30am, part of the dwindling crowd of displaced people. Sandra said a woman had come to the foyer to offer her house for people to stay in, and they were considering taking her up on the offer. She called the offer "exceptionally generous".

The woman and her daughter had been thinking about how frightened they were by the earthquake, then began considering others who were stuck in evacuation centres with nowhere else to go. "That's why they jumped in their car and came down here." It was "an amazing act of kindness and generosity". "It's just extraordinary," Sandra said. The Wardrop family also met Prime Minister John Key when he came in to speak to people in the foyer. "Meeting the prime minister was unexpected, like the earthquake." William Wardrop was a little disappointed the earthquake had gotten in the way of his birthday breakfast at McDonald's , Sandra said. "He's sort of excited that he's got a story to tell about his birthday.

I can remember in Wellington,”</emm:quote><emm:tonality>-17</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="626">A powerful earthquake and series of aftershocks shook New Zealand early on Monday, killing at least two people and prompting a tsunami warning that sent thousands fleeing to higher ground. Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region at the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. Prime Minister John Key told a dawn news conference in the capital of Wellington, where the quake was also felt strongly, that two people had been killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. “It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington,” Key told reporters, although he stopped short of calling a national emergency. “There will be quite major costs around roads and infrastructure.” Emergency officials were meeting later on Monday morning, added Key. Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, while roads were blocked by landslips. But a tsunami warning that led to mass evacuations was downgraded after large swells hit Wellington, in the North Island, and Christchurch, the South Island’s largest city. The first tremor, just 23 km (14 miles) deep, struck the Pacific island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand’s Geonet measured Monday’s quake at magnitude 7.5, while the U.S. Geological Survey put it at 7.8. New Zealand lies in the seismically active “Ring of Fire”, a 40,000 km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world’s earthquakes occur within this region. RESCUE PERSONNEL. St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to Kaikoura, where at least one of the casualties was located. The South Island town, a popular destination for whale watching, was completely cut off and officials said there were reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, where frequent aftershocks continued to be felt hours after the first quake, residents heading for higher ground caused gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city. “I’m just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am,” Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington International airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centres were accepting residents. Police set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centred inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113213000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="express-c76e5f96331879c488221911360828b9"><title>WATCH: Terrifying moment family's house SHAKES 'like jelly' during New Zealand earthquake</title><link>http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/731808/New-Zealand-earthquake-shake-disaster-video-Christchurch?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+daily-express-world-news+%28Daily+Express+%3A%3A+World+Feed%29</link><description>| UPDATED: 15:41, Sun, Nov 13, 2016 Oli Smith Haunting footage captured the moment the massive earthquake ripped through a family house in Wellington, New Zealand.

A series of earthquakes and aftershocks have hit the country. One of them generated a tsunami wave around six feet high on South Island. The largest quake was 7 point 8 magnitude and hit just after midnight local time. The Department of Foreign Affairs here has said it has not received any requests for assistance, but is continuing to monitor the situation. The local Fire Department is dealing with emergency calls in the town of Christchurch, New Zealand, following the quake but, as yet, officials say there are no reports of serious damage, injuries or fatalities.

He told Mirror Online: “The earthquake was intense, the whole house was moving a considerable amount - doors, lights were swaying. “We have experienced many quakes in the South Island, none have ever lasted as long as this one did. “Initially I was not too concerned, then because of the duration we had concern that the quake would become stronger and it did. “After I guess a minute the quake reached its peak.” Hugh said his home has a small amount of cosmetic damage, including cracks, but he hasn’t had a chance to inspect the exterior because the quake struck at night. He and his wife recorded this video:

Earthquake shook home 'like jelly', says terrified resident. Anthropology student Heather McMillan said her home in Christchurch shook “like jelly” when the earthquake struck as she was getting ready for bed, and she feared it was going to collapse. The 20-year-old told Mirror Online: “When it started it was really big so I thought it was going to be short but it kept going for a good few minutes and felt like the second floor was going to fall down. “I live in the second storey of a flat and it was like a rolling feeling from the house. The aftershocks have felt like we’re a ship at sea.” Heather said her parents in Wellington were without power and had some belongings damaged as the earthquake shook their home. She live-tweeted the experience:

Tsunami expected to hit New Zealand's east coast shortly. New Zealand’s emergency management agency says a tsunami is expected to hit the country’s east coast shortly. It warned: “The tsunami may arrive in the Eastern Coast of the North Island shortly. Move inland or to higher ground immediately. “The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours.”

'It felt like swaying and a wave' British chef Tim Owen, 29, was at home in Halswell, a satellite town of Christchurch, when the earthquake hit. He told Mirror Online: “It went on for like a minute or so, which is quite long. It felt like swaying and like a wave. “We just got up from the couch and stood in the doorway. It does make you feel very anxious not knowing if it will get worse or when it may stop.” This photo was tweeted by Richard Bicknell:</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113141300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="dailytelegraph-582ebd15709c106bc0170b4c06f1bb6d"><title>NEW ZEALAND: Magnitude 7.4 Earthquake Triggers Tsunami Warning in New Zealand November 13</title><link>http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/video/id-pldmFrNzE63_w9MAwWK7i4xYdVDdvNM-/NEW-ZEALAND-Magnitude-74-Earthquake-Triggers-Tsunami-Warning-in-New-Zealand-November-13</link><description>A magnitude-7.4 earthquake struck an area near Christchurch, New Zealand, on November 13, the US Geological Survey reported.

Pacific Tsunami Warning Center advised that there was no immediate danger of a tsunami arising from the quake. The New Zealand government’s GeoNet website said the quake was “felt widely” throughout the country and warned citizens to watch out for aftershocks. Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, said the shaking lasted a “long” time. “We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up,” she told AFP. She said there was no sign of damage on her street and the power was still on, adding that she was worried about towns and villages closer to the epicentre.

We’re getting aftershocks at the moment. We’re going to stock up on water supplies just in case.

In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported. Christchurch was the location of a powerful 6.3 magnitude earthquake in February 2011. The quake caused widespread damage across the city and killed 185 people. New Zealand is situated on the Pacific Ring of Fire, an area with a high number of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. There were no immediate reports of damage or injury as a result of today’s tremor.

The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 16 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday. The New Zealand government's GeoNet website reported it as severe and it was felt throughout the country. There were no immediate reports of damages from the latest quake. A Christchurch Police spokeswoman said the only call they had initially regarding the earthquake was a hole in the road in Hundalee, North Canterbury. She said there hadn't yet been any calls about damage in Christchurch.

"Just be careful on the roads in case there's damage," she said. St John Ambulance said they had no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre (EOC)", they said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said there was no tsunami threat from Monday's quake. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113130800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="dailysabah-0b86931095f7de3f5e7b53e4e4f3312e" duplicate="jpost-c78cb5f536597d952ca58d835fbd69f0"><title>Magnitude 7.4 earthquake shakes New Zealand</title><link>http://www.dailysabah.com/asia/2016/11/13/magnitude-74-earthquake-shakes-new-zealand</link><description>A powerful earthquake has struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch, with strong jolts felt over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington.

A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 120 miles away in the capital, Wellington. New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of injuries. The magnitude-7.4 quake struck just after midnight Sunday and was centered 57 miles northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 6 miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. An earthquake in 2011 in Christchurch killed 185 people.

A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 120 miles away in the capital, Wellington. New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 132 miles north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 57 miles northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 6 miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

Representational picture. Wellington: New Zealand issued a tsunami warning for southern coastal areas today, following a powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake near the South Island city of Christchurch around midnight. "A tsunami is possible," the national civil defence organisation, which is in charge of New Zealand's emergency management, said in a bulletin. "The first wave activity may not be the most significant," it said, adding tsumanmi activity would continue for several hours. The epicentre, with a depth of 10 km, was at 42.53 degrees south latitude and 173.05 degrees east longitude, Xinhua news agency cited the centre as saying in a statement.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113145300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="portstephensexaminer-e719bbf5bdc13831dc0241e0de1becfa" duplicate="theherald-au-e719bbf5bdc13831dc0241e0de1becfa"><title>NZ earthquake: Two dead in 7.5-magnitude quake</title><link>http://www.portstephensexaminer.com.au/story/4289810/nz-earthquake-two-dead-in-75-magnitude-quake/?cs=2452</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck the South Island of New Zealand, killing two and cutting power to some parts of the country.

The quake triggering a tsunami warning along the entire east coast, which was later downgraded. In discussing fatalities New Zealand Prime Minister John Key told reporters in Wellington that: "We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out." Key added that details of the casualties were still being confirmed. He said a military helicopter was being dispatched to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island. Tsunami gauges at Kaikoura, 180 kilometres north of Christchurch, had recorded "a sizeable tsunami wave of around 2.5 metres", weatherwatch.co.nz reported about three-and-a-half hours after the quake struck. "The tsunami gauges suggest perhaps an underwater landslide just off the Kaikoura coastline," weatherwatch said on its website. The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 23 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday and was felt as far away as Auckland.

@andycliff: Looking at the quakes from a different angle, we are lucky this hit at midnight. If it was during the peak hours, the result would have been dramatically different.

The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management issued a tsunami warning for the South Island and later extended it for the entire east coast. The warning was later scaled back, reducing the area where such an event was likely to hit the coast. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113215800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="skynews-922526963535ce8ad842803cc48aa807"><title>Deaths after strong NZ earthquake sparks tsunami</title><link>http://news.sky.com/story/tsunami-hits-after-powerful-earthquake-strikes-new-zealand-10655977</link><description>The Civil Defence Ministry tweeted: "A tsunami has been generated, the first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island."

It added: "The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours. "If you are in a low lying area on the East Coast of the North, South or Chatham Islands move immediately to higher ground."

There are some reports of injuries in the area, but Acting Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said "the picture will become clearer as day breaks". The quake hit just after midnight local time, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), and the initial tremor was followed by aftershocks, including several above magnitude 6.

Strong jolts were also reported in the capital, Wellington, some 120 miles (200km) north and there was gridlock on roads leading to Mount Victoria - a hill overlooking the capital.

"I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," said Wellington resident Howard Warner Officials said there was structural damage to some buildings in Wellington and people were being warned to say away from the central business district. The train network was closed for checks but the airport was still operating normally.

New Zealand's Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information, listed dozens of quakes between 3.8 and 6.6. Hugh Sintes, from Christchurch, told Sky News: "My wife had gone off to the bathroom, I had just lay down on my bed and all of all of a sudden the bed started wobbling and it got more and more intense. "And I thought 'okay this is getting a bit serious'. It continued on and on - it got quite concerning." The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of nine miles (15km). Shallow tremors are felt more strongly on the surface.

Rick Kiesseg said on Twitter: "Primary New Zealand #earthquake lasted about a minute. Long, long, long shake and roll. About 17 aftershocks so far, biggest mag 6.1" The February 2011 earthquake hit just a few miles outside Christchurch, New Zealand's third biggest city, causing widespread damage and leaving 185 people dead. New Zealand lies on the boundary of two tectonic plates and is on the so-called 'Ring of Fire' - an area prone to earthquakes. The country experience as many as 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113185400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="theherald-au-e719bbf5bdc13831dc0241e0de1becfa"><title>NZ earthquake: Two dead in 7.5-magnitude quake</title><link>http://www.theherald.com.au/story/4289810/nz-earthquake-two-dead-in-75-magnitude-quake/?cs=2452</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck the South Island of New Zealand, killing two and cutting power to some parts of the country.

The quake triggering a tsunami warning along the entire east coast, which was later downgraded. In discussing fatalities New Zealand Prime Minister John Key told reporters in Wellington that: "We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out." Key added that details of the casualties were still being confirmed. He said a military helicopter was being dispatched to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island. Tsunami gauges at Kaikoura, 180 kilometres north of Christchurch, had recorded "a sizeable tsunami wave of around 2.5 metres", weatherwatch.co.nz reported about three-and-a-half hours after the quake struck. "The tsunami gauges suggest perhaps an underwater landslide just off the Kaikoura coastline," weatherwatch said on its website. The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 23 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday and was felt as far away as Auckland.

@andycliff: Looking at the quakes from a different angle, we are lucky this hit at midnight. If it was during the peak hours, the result would have been dramatically different.

The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management issued a tsunami warning for the South Island and later extended it for the entire east coast. The warning was later scaled back, reducing the area where such an event was likely to hit the coast. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113213700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="dailyadvertiser-e719bbf5bdc13831dc0241e0de1becfa" duplicate="theherald-au-e719bbf5bdc13831dc0241e0de1becfa"><title>NZ earthquake: Two dead in 7.5-magnitude quake</title><link>http://www.dailyadvertiser.com.au/story/4289810/nz-earthquake-two-dead-in-75-magnitude-quake/?cs=2452</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 struck the South Island of New Zealand, killing two and cutting power to some parts of the country.

The quake triggering a tsunami warning along the entire east coast, which was later downgraded. In discussing fatalities New Zealand Prime Minister John Key told reporters in Wellington that: "We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out." Key added that details of the casualties were still being confirmed. He said a military helicopter was being dispatched to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island. Tsunami gauges at Kaikoura, 180 kilometres north of Christchurch, had recorded "a sizeable tsunami wave of around 2.5 metres", weatherwatch.co.nz reported about three-and-a-half hours after the quake struck. "The tsunami gauges suggest perhaps an underwater landslide just off the Kaikoura coastline," weatherwatch said on its website. The quake, located 20 kilometres south-east of Hanmer Springs at a depth of 23 kilometres, struck just after midnight on Sunday and was felt as far away as Auckland.

@andycliff: Looking at the quakes from a different angle, we are lucky this hit at midnight. If it was during the peak hours, the result would have been dramatically different.

The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management issued a tsunami warning for the South Island and later extended it for the entire east coast. The warning was later scaled back, reducing the area where such an event was likely to hit the coast.

The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck in a mostly rural area close to the city of Christchurch, but appeared to be more strongly felt in the capital, Wellington, more than 200 kilometers (120 miles) away. The quake was followed by a number of strong aftershocks, AP reported. The quake caused items to fall from shelves, and windows to break in Wellington, and forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. New Zealand's Ministry of Civil Defense and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground. The ministry had earlier sent out a message on Twitter saying there was no tsunami threat to the country. But then it sent out another message "situation has changed - tsunami is possible" before reporting that a tsunami had, in fact, hit. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. But the quake brought back memories of a magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck the city in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people in one of New Zealand's worst disasters. But Monday's quake was centered farther away from the one in 2011, which caused damage worth an estimated $25 billion. In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows were smashed and some chimneys collapsed. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113171000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="timescolonist-4162b9458e3e19e9beca43fe5468b3f6" duplicate="newson6-58585d8766c8a054921e3b639a2b1220"><title>At least two dead in powerful New Zealand earthquake</title><link>http://www.timescolonist.com/at-least-two-dead-in-powerful-new-zealand-earthquake-1.2681722</link><description>Guests evacuated from the Quest On the Terrace Hotel gather outside the hotel in Wellington, New Zealand, after a 7.8 earthquake based around Cheviot in the South island shook the capital on Monday.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand - New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country. Key did not provide any further details at a news conference Monday morning in Wellington, the capital. Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck early Monday, just after midnight, 214 kilometres (132 miles) south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113203500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="sunstar-0308835efa2434067c7962562939d618" duplicate="wkbw-3b98c733351a40704aa103eebd38e63f"><title>Magnitude 7.8 quake strikes New Zealand</title><link>http://www.sunstar.com.ph/network/news/2016/11/13/magnitude-78-quake-strikes-new-zealand-509203</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- A magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday (Sunday in the Philippines), with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T14:09+0100</pubDate><source url="http://www.sunstar.com.ph/" country="PH">sunstar</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>sunstar-0308835efa2434067c7962562939d618</guid><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="130" emm:trigger="Tsunami[1]; tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiFR</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="156" emm:trigger="Tsunami[1]; tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiES</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="115" emm:trigger="destroying[1]; injuries[1]; surface[1]; earthquake[2]; Tsunami[1]; tsunami[2]; collapsed[1]; ">NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="190" emm:trigger="earthquake[2]; Tsunami[1]; tsunami[2]; ">CPSI-NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="130" emm:trigger="Tsunami[1]; tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiRO</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="Earthquakes[1]; Magnitude[1]; earthquake[2]; damage[2]; magnitude[1]; quake[5]; seismic[1]; earthquakes[1]; struck[2]; coast[1]; killing[1]; ">Earthquakes</category><category emm:rank="2" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="seismic[1]; ">ET_EarthquakeRO</category><category emm:rank="1" emm:score="104" emm:trigger="Tsunami[1]; tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiPT</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="10" emm:trigger="Philippines[1]; geo[Philippines];">Philippines</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="47" emm:trigger="WELLINGTON[1]; Wellington[2]; New Zealand[5]; geo[Christchurch];geo[Wellington];">NewZealand</category><emm:favicon>http://www.sunstar.com.ph/sites/default/files/favicon.ico</emm:favicon><emm:entity id="299013" type="o" count="1" pos="410" name="US Geological Survey">US Geological Survey</emm:entity><emm:entity id="413740" type="o" count="1" pos="723" name="Pacific Tsunami Warning Center">Pacific Tsunami Warning Center</emm:entity><emm:entity id="413740" type="o" count="1" pos="719" name="Pacific Tsunami Warning Center">The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center</emm:entity><emm:georss name="Philippines" id="186" lat="14.6096" lon="121.006" count="1" pos="172" class="-1" iso="PH" charpos="172" wordlen="11" score="1">Philippines</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Christchurch:-:Canterbury:New Zealand" id="16844969" lat="-43.5235" lon="172.638" count="4" pos="131,379,1068,1215" class="2" iso="NZ" charpos="131,379,1068,1215" wordlen="12,12,12,12" score="54">Christchurch</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Wellington:Carterton District:Wellington:New Zealand" id="16848553" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="3" pos="41,290,838" class="1" iso="NZ" charpos="41,290,838" wordlen="10,10,10" score="353">Wellington</emm:georss><emm:fullgeo name="New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand" id="169" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="5" pos="28,53,102,576,1281" class="-1" iso="NZ" charpos="28,53,102,576,1281" wordlen="11,11,11,11,11" score="5">New Zealand</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Wellington:Division No.  8:Manitoba:Canada" id="303700008" lat="54.926272934445" lon="-97.433197709217" count="3" pos="41,290,838" class="10" iso="CA" charpos="41,290,838" wordlen="10,10,10" score="3">Wellington</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Ocean:Ocean:New Jersey:United States" id="222455" lat="39.9109082646065" lon="-74.2974307906946" count="1" pos="1365" class="-3" iso="US" charpos="1365" wordlen="5" score="1">Ocean</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Ring:Linkoeping:Oestergoetlands Laen:Sweden" id="33818848" lat="58.413872" lon="15.93552" count="1" pos="1306" class="5" iso="SE" charpos="1306" wordlen="4" score="1">Ring</emm:fullgeo><emm:tonality>-20</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="231">WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- A magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday (Sunday in the Philippines), with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington.

"The first wave activity may not be the most significant," it said, adding tsumanmi activity would continue for several hours. Christchurch is the biggest city on New Zealand's South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The Christchurch Civil Defence Emergency Management said in a Facebook post, "We are currently gathering situational awareness and will share information as it comes in. At this stage, there have been no significant reports of damage across the city. Expect aftershocks and look after those around you." The New Zealand government's GeoNet website said the quake was "felt widely" throughout the country and warned citizens to watch out for aftershocks. Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, said the shaking lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP. She said there was no sign of damage on her street and the power was still on, adding that she was worried about towns and villages closer to the epicentre. "We're getting aftershocks at the moment. We're going to stock up on water supplies just in case."

The quake caused power outages, damaged buildings — and generated a tsunami. Emergency officials are urging people to get to high ground. "The tsunami threat is for the east coast of all New Zealand (including Christchurch, Wellington and the Chatham islands)," the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management said Sunday, urging residents to be wary of after-shocks and unpredictable high waves. "There is a threat of land inundation for the East Coast of New Zealand from Southland to the East Cape," the agency said, referring to a roughly 1,000 mile-wide area. People in nearly 90 cities reported feeling the quake, according to the USGS. Chimneys toppled, and damage was reported more than 100 miles from the epicenter.

The quake struck nearly 60 miles north of New Zealand's city of Christchurch, at a depth of around 25 miles.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113154900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="cbs46-ace8e4ab8baa630406a236e69bf33928" duplicate="wkbw-3b98c733351a40704aa103eebd38e63f"><title>Powerful quake strikes near Christchurch, New Zealand</title><link>http://www.cbs46.com/story/33696547/powerful-quake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand</link><description>By NICK PERRY Associated Press.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) - A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand near the city of Christchurch early Monday, with strong jolts causing some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington. New Zealand emergency services warned that a tsunami was possible and told people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no immediate danger of a broader tsunami from the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake's epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centers. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

Emergency response teams were dispatched by helicopter to the region at the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, some 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch in the South Island, amid reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. Prime Minister John Key told a dawn news conference in the capital of Wellington, where the quake was also felt strongly, that two people had been killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. "It was the most significant shock I can remember in Wellington," Key told reporters, although he stopped short of calling a national emergency. "There will be quite major costs around roads and infrastructure." Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, while roads were blocked by landslips. But a tsunami warning that led to mass evacuations was downgraded after large swells hit Wellington, in the North Island, and Christchurch, the South Island's largest city. The first tremor, just 23 km (14 miles) deep, struck the Pacific island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5, while the U.S. Geological Survey put it at 7.8. New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region. RESCUE PERSONNEL. St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to Kaikoura, where at least one of the casualties was located. The South Island town, a popular destination for whale watching, was completely cut off and officials said there were reports of a collapsed building. In Wellington, where frequent aftershocks continued to be felt hours after the first quake, residents heading for higher ground caused gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house. Richard Maclean, a spokesman for Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington International airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurch, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centres were accepting residents. Police set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas. Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centred inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.

The quake caused power outages, damaged buildings — and generated a tsunami. Emergency officials are urging people to get to high ground. "The tsunami threat is for the east coast of all New Zealand (including Christchurch, Wellington and the Chatham islands)," the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management said Sunday, urging residents to be wary of aftershocks and unpredictable high waves. "There is a threat of land inundation for the East Coast of New Zealand from Southland to the East Cape," the agency said, referring to a roughly 1,000 mile-wide area. People in nearly 90 cities reported feeling the quake, according to the USGS. Chimneys toppled, and damage was reported more than 100 miles from the epicenter.

The quake struck nearly 60 miles north of New Zealand's city of Christchurch, at a depth of around 25 miles.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114005200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="metro-uk-f9f38f3559992bb45a892e6af0977c3a" duplicate="metro-uk-b5447035959fd8c504cf12e6b1b8a96b"><title>Two-metre tsunami hits New Zealand after magnitude 7.8 earthquake</title><link>http://metro.co.uk/2016/11/13/new-zealand-earthquake-triggers-tsunami-as-first-waves-hit-the-south-island-6255278/</link><description>Large parts of Wellington, New Zealand’s capital, are being evacuated as a tsunami hits.

A powerful earthquake has generated a 6ft tsunami in New Zealand, with the first waves hitting the South Island, government officials have said. The department of civil defence warned people all along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck in the early hours of Monday near the city of Christchurch. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist with the GNS Science, said the government’s earthquake monitoring service, the quakes were close to the coast. ‘They’ve been quite large. We’ve also seen a signal on the tide gauge at Kaikoura which is up to one metre (three feet) so it’s reasonably significant, so people should take this seriously.’

A tsunami has been generated. Waves are expected to arrive at the Chatham islands immediately – anyone in the Chathams should move to high ground urgently. The first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island and it may arrive in Eastern Coast of the North and South Islands of New Zealand shorly (including Wellington, Christchurch and the Chatham Islands. The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours. Move inland or to higher ground immediately. People in coastal areas should: Stay out of the water (sea, rivers and estuaries, including boating activities) Stay off beaches and shore areas; Do not go sightseeing; Share this information with family, neighbours and friends; Listen to the radio and/or TV for updates; Follow instructions of local civil defence authorities.

However, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said that based on available data ‘a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami is not expected.’ Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, more than 120 miles away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch. Tsunami sirens can be heard sounding out across Wellington.

On March 5, 1934, Pahiatua was the epicentre of a 7.6 magnitude quake felt across the lower North Island and was also reported to have been felt as in Auckland and Dunedin. This is where Monday's earthquake enters the history books - the 7.5 magnitude shake 15km northeast of Culverden in the South Island is already on record for killing two people, causing extensive damage to roads and infrastructure and was followed by numerous aftershocks, minutes - sometimes seconds apart. Marlborough was the home of the next quake on the list, with a quake between 7.4 and 7.7 on October 16, 1848 which thankfully was the largest felt in the region that year. A 7.2 in Wairarapa on June 24, 1942 caused extensive damage to buildings and was felt widely in the lower North Island. The 7.2 to 7.6 Cape Farewell quake of October 19, 1868 caused damage to houses and roads in the Farewell Spit area. In more recent memory, the May 24, 1968 quake in Inangahua caused widespread damage and was felt across the New Zealand. Damage from the Inangahua earthquake (Archives New Zealand) On September 4, 2010, in Darfield, a 7.1 quake caused severe damage in mid-Canterbury and Christchurch, and also revealed a previously unknown east-west fault under the Canterbury Plains.

There is a tsunami warning for all southern coastal areas of New Zealand and the east coast of the North Island. RNZ presenter Simon Morton, who lives on the south coast in Wellington, said he had evacuated his house after noticing the tide dropping away. Other people had joined him in going to higher ground.

Hotel guests in central Christchurch were evacuated and are standing outside in the CBD. More than 100 people are standing on the footpath opposite the Christchurch Casino, while at least 100 hotel guests are outside the Novotel, opposite the Christ Church Cathedral. St John says it has had no reports of injuries from the earthquake. A spokesperson says it is monitoring the situation but at this stage has not activated the emergency operations centre (EOC). The spokesperson says people are encourgaged to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail. It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready.

The earthquake is the biggest to hit the region since the 5.7 Valentine's Day earthquake, which caused cliffs in the Christchurch suburb of Sumner to fall and liquefaction in some east Christchurch areas. Residents in Westport, on the West Coast, are without power.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113135900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="MaltaToday-85aa20f98534fdf5065459403bc61b70"><title>Tsunami warning issued following New Zealand earthquake</title><link>http://www.maltatoday.com.mt/news/world/71569/66magnitude_earthquake_reported_just_north_of_christchurch</link><description>A 7.4-magnitude earthquake has been reported to have hit an area 91 Km North-East of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

He had stayed there overnight after meeting with Secretary of State John F. Kerry, who was on a state visit there and to Antarctica. The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand’s emergency call number, 111, the Associated Press reported. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows, and caused items to fall from shelves.

The New Zealand Herald reported that one of the deaths had resulted from a heart attack and that another had taken place on a historic homestead near the beach town of Kaikoura, a popular destination for tourists on whale-watching expeditions. Military helicopters flew to the seaside town early Monday to assess the damage after roads were destroyed. “There are some reports of casualties in the Kaikoura area, but just exactly what the extent of that is, is not yet reported,” Gerry Brownlee, the country’s acting minister of civil defense, told reporters. The earthquake struck about 50 miles southwest of Kaikoura and 50 miles north of Christchurch. Elliot Fim, a regional official in that city, said in a telephone interview that there were no reports of damage, injuries, or fatalities. The Fire Department was dealing with a large number of emergency calls seeking assistance. Fim said people living along about 200 miles of coastline had been evacuated. Some roads and a building were reported damaged, but people were able to move to high ground. A spokesman for the Wellington Region Emergency Management office said there were reports of minor damage in the capital city. One of Wellington’s newest hotels, the Sofitel, had minor damage. Members of Kerry’s staff, some of them still in the city after his departure, had to evacuate the hotel in the middle of the night. On Monday morning, emergency crews were assessing damage to city buildings. “We are still having aftershocks,” a spokeswoman for Key said. Schools and shops remained closed. Dan Jaksa, a duty officer from Geoscience Australia, said that if the small townships north of Christchurch did not have earthquake-resistant buildings, “it is going to be tough.” In 2011, an earthquake measuring 6.3 devastated Christchurch and killed 185 people. An additional 164 people were seriously injured. The latest earthquake was about 40 to 50 times as large as the one in 2011, Jaksa said. In Cheviot, a small town thought to be close to the epicenter, there were no reports of casualties. “There is minimal damage to buildings that we can see,” Grant Burnett, the chief of the Cheviot volunteer fire brigade, said in a telephone interview. “It is surprising, because it was a big quake.” Burnett said that some properties along the coast had been evacuated, but that none had been seriously damaged by the surge in seawater. The fire brigade went door to door to check on residents, especially the elderly, he said. Jaksa said the earthquake had ruptured from west to east, with shocks moving toward Wellington, on the southern coast of New Zealand’s North Island. “Let’s hope this is it, and there’s no more,” he said. After the initial shock, which the US Geological Survey measured at 7.8, there was an aftershock measuring 6.1, and then several more shocks, with three of those measuring in the high fives, Jaksa said. The earthquake occurred in the Hikurangi Trench, a subduction zone where one tectonic plate slides under another. New Zealand’s North Island and the northern part of its South Island are on the Pacific plate, which is moving west, while the Australian plate is largely moving north.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114034700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-7bb6f28868590fda78b7a02254700155"><title>Video: Scenes of chaos and destruction after earthquake felt across New Zealand</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86416950/Video-Scenes-of-chaos-and-destruction-after-earthquake-felt-across-New-Zealand</link><description>Stock was left strewn across the aisles and pieces of the ceiling have fallen away at Countdown Wainuiomata in Wellington.

The Herald newspaper said the tremor was felt all the way to Wellington, where sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. 

Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries and there was no immediate danger of a tsunami, according to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre. The 7.4-magnitude quake struck just after midnight on Sunday and was centred 57 miles north-east of Christchurch, according to the US Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow.

been confirmed dead after a powerful 7.5 earthquake in hit North Canterbury at 12.03am on Monday. There are also reports a person has been trapped in a landslide in Ohau, north of Kaikoura. The earthquake has triggered over 100 aftershocks, which have been felt as far north as Auckland and continue to shake affected areas.

One of the deaths was reported at the Elms Homestead in Kaikoura and one in Mt Lyford, east of Hanmer Springs. (Newshub.) GeoNet says the initial 7.5 magnitude quake may have actually been two quakes, based on aftershocks being felt in separate locations. Tsunami waves were recorded in Kaikoura, Wellington, Christchurch and Castlepoint in the Wairarapa. Tsunami warnings have been lifted for the entire East Coast of New Zealand, but Civil Defence says a marine and breach threat warning remains in effect until a cancellation message is issued.

Kaikoura is reporting serious damage to town infrastructure, with no sewerage and water and power gradually being restored. Residents are strongly advised to conserve water as it may be days before household water supply is returned. Four Nelson police officers have been flown in to assist, with more to arrive tomorrow if needed. Shops are closed, and the public cannot currently buy food, water or fuel. Travellers are known to be stranded to the immediate north and south of Kaikoura. Police are working to airlift occupants of caravans to the north to the Ward Welfare Centre, while those in south will be airlifted further south. Hurunui District mayor Winton Dalley had declared a state of emergency in the area. "The reason for the state of emergency is to allow us to coordinate the resources we need to get on with the recovery from this earthquake,” Hurunui District Council CEO Hamish Dobbie told Newshub from Amberley. "There's been helicopters flying up and down the state highway to and from Kaikoura,” he said. "They've stopped and picked up a number of motorists trapped between various landslides and road interruptions. They're being flown to Amberley, we'll take care of them once they get here, sort them out and try and get them onwards to where they need to get to.” "We have physically got to a lot of our small towns now, we've got good connections there. We've just got a helicopter just gone up to Lyford taking another satellite phone in to them so we'll have a better connection with them. But it is difficult."

Slips, cracks and damaged bridges have been reported along State Highway One, which is closed north of Waipara, heading to Picton. Kaikoura remains essentially cut off by slips and blocked rail tunnels. Slip on Rotherham Road near Waiau (Newshub.) A railway line pushed into the sea on State Highway One (Newshub.) Earthquake damage has also closed State Highway Seven, Waipara to Springs Junction, and SH7A to Hamner Springs. Trains and ferries are on hold in the Wellington region, with the Interislander reporting two of its ferries, the Kaitaki and Aratere, anchored in the Wellington harbour. Kiwirail says the Kaiarahi ferry has berthed in Picton and unloaded passengers after port authorities cleared one berth for use, though the terminal sustained damage and remains closed. Damage on State Highway One (Newshub.) Reports of damaged buildings have come from a number of regions including Canterbury, Wellington and Blenheim. Assessments of the Christchurch CBD are still being carried out, but damage appears to be minimal.

Wellington City Council has advised those who work in the central city to stay home today as the capital braces for 140km/h winds, which the council says could dislodge broken glass and other materials from buildings that sustained structural damage. Wellington Regional Civil Defence Controller Bruce Pepperell says a number of major buildings are showing "signs of structural stress" and that the quake will likely have caused mess and disruption inside some buildings, particularly on higher floors. Damage at the Wellington port (Newshub.) Wellington Mayor Justin Lester says the city is quiet today. "I am very happy with the work of the Council officials in getting the city on its feet it was a fair shake and we want to make sure everyone is safe when they come back to work," he says. The New Zealand Parliament building provided refuge overnight to about 300 people who were evacuated from unsafe accommodation nearby.

Among those who stayed at the Beehive are Simon Clegg and his family, who have just moved back from Australia for seven years to live in Wanaka. They were spending the night in Wellington before planning to catch the ferry today, but will instead be looking for a motel to stay in out of the CBD. "We all ended up in the one room... You were definitely thinking in your head, this is getting out of control." He says they'd been offered to stay on in the 9th floor room but weren't comfortable because of extensive cracks in the walls that opened up before their eyes. The family ran down the nine floors, past "massive cracks" in the walls. Water supplies have been affected as far north as Raglan. The New Zealand Red Cross says water has been identified as an urgent need, and that they will offer water bladders and tap stands for distribution as needed. Christchurch City Council is reporting no issues with drinking water. NZQA has postponed all scholarship exams for the day. NCEA exams will go ahead at unaffected schools. Students whose schools are closed will be given a derived mark based on previous results in the subject.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114020800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nbcnews-348ae7f50a22bfe01420907f1449876c" duplicate="nbcnews-89106c9a4e79e4e9e630eaa4b1e914fc"><title>Deadly 7.8 Quake Rattles New Zealand, Causes Tsunami</title><link>http://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/powerful-earthquake-shakes-new-zealand-killing-two-causing-tsunami-n683131?cid=public-rss_20161113</link><description>New Zealand's Prime Minister said two people have been killed after a powerful earthquake struck Sunday just north of Christchurch — the city devastated by a deadly 2011 temblor.

Prime Minister John Key warned that the death toll could rise as rescue workers search isolated parts of the country. "We've had very limited communications there because they've been cut off so we've been working through police comms, during the night," he said. "We also want to thank everyone for the response that's been going on." In a statement, police confirmed that one person had been killed when a building collapsed near the epicenter of the quake. It was unclear how the second person died. A tsunami was generated and the first waves hit the South Island's east coast, according to the country's Civil Defence agency. The agency later downgraded tsunami threat, but marine and beach threats remain in place.

The powerful earthquake struck just after midnight Sunday, jolting residents awake and forcing them to evacuate the coast for higher ground. The earthquake was strong enough to split roads and crack bridges. California native Brandon Perez was traveling in New Zealand when the earthquake hit. He said the quake shook the entire room of his hostel and everyone quickly evacuated. "It just kept going and going and wouldn't stop," he said. "I've experienced earthquakes before, but once it got to the point where the entire room was shaking and things were falling down I started to get a little worried."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113222300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="krmg-78ced7aca5984149f66850304fbba65d" duplicate="news-yahoo-61ff31e9c85b4d354f55c9709554e053"><title>The Latest: New Zealand quake causes damage to roads</title><link>http://www.krmg.com/ap/ap/top-news/the-latest-new-zealand-quake-causes-damage-to-road/pDd6QT/</link><description>A large fissure runs along Kaikoura Road about two hours north of Christchurch Monday, Nov. 14, 2016, after a major earthquake struck New Zealand's south Island early Monday.

Two people are confirmed to have been killed following the 7.8 magnitude quake which sparked fears of a tsunamis hitting the country's east coast. William Stuart, 33, was woken up by his bed shaking from side to side in his apartment in Wellington. The flooring installer, originally from Weir, Scotland, told the Scottish Daily Record : “I was asleep and woken up by the bed slowly shaking from side to side just after midnight. “Initially I was fine as this happens regularly throughout my time here and normally passes in a few seconds but this one started to get stronger and stronger and it’s at that point total panic sets in. “I jumped out of bed and and stood under the door,this is what they tell you to do but it kept coming and was getting stronger.

Thousands were forced to evacuate building The 7.8 quake caused widespread. "I could see the walls and beams in my flat bending so I decided to run outside in the buff I honestly thought the place was going to start coming down. “I went back in a couple of minutes later to get dressed and then came back out and sat in a safe place whilst every after shock hit,there must have been about 15 of them in the next hour. “I was getting calls and messages from friends and family back home in Scotland which was nice and they were asking what it’s like, I honestly think it’s something that you can’t truly explain,something you cant prepare yourself for, such a surreal experience.”

Search and rescue teams are wading through the first scenes of destruction as daybreak reveals the extent of the damage after a 7.8 magnitude earthquake in New Zealand. Two people are confirmed to have died after tremors struck at around midnight local time (11am UK time). The epicentre was around 60 miles from Christchurch and caused extensive damage to the Kaikoura area. Aerial footage shows collapsed homes and roadblocks as search and rescue teams start to inspect the area.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114002600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="bdnews24-cbfb50b24fd3e9f95ec4d20d95de2ab9"><title>Strong earthquake strikes New Zealand, tsunami warning issued</title><link>http://bdnews24.com/world/2016/11/13/strong-earthquake-strikes-new-zealand-tsunami-warning-issued</link><description>New Zealand's Civil Defence has issued a tsunami warning, advising residents on the South Island's east coast to seek higher ground.

A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand's Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths.

Dawesy (@MikeDawesNZ) November 13, 2016 While there were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of a magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck the city in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people in one of New Zealand’s worst disasters.

In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake’s epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows were smashed and some chimneys collapsed. The quake was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The USGS initially estimated that the earthquake had a magnitude of 7.4 before revising it to 7.8.

The country lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. Early reports suggested some houses in Cheviot town, near the epicentre, have been damaged. But Chris Hill, a fire officer in Cheviot, said officials had gone door to door evacuating residents and found "everyone seems okay".

He told RadioNZ: "There's a lot of debris in houses, but at this stage it doesn't look like anything too bad has happened." A resident of Christchurch said the tremor lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP news agency. On Twitter, Hayley Colgan described it as "the most terrifying earthquake I think I've felt in my 23 years in New Zealand". A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 169km (105 miles) north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries.

WELLINGTON: A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck central New Zealand just after midnight, the US Geological Survey said, causing widespread damage and generating a tsunami.

Thousands of people along New Zealand’s east coast fled their homes to head for higher ground as emergency services warned of destructive waves of up to five meters in some areas.

“The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been,” said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defense. “Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming may be bigger than what has come before.”

St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to near the epicenter of the quake, 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, where a 6.3 quake in 2011 killed 185 people, on New Zealand’s South Island.

“We are starting to get reports of injuries from the earthquake area, including Culverden area and Kaikoura,” Dion Rosario, St. John Incident Controller, said in a statement. “However, at this stage we do not have specifics.”

Police said they were investigating reports of a collapsed building in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113202800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="heraldsun-506373daa7a2817ec94a5c844fabee66"><title>Terror as fatal earthquake hits NZ</title><link>http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/world/earthquake-hits-new-zealands-south-island/news-story/ea6386451a30e4fb04956281d078ee39</link><description>The US Geological Survey said the quake hit just after midnight Monday (10pm Sunday AEDT) near Hanmer Springs, about 90 kilometres from Christchurch, which was devastated five years ago by a 6.3 tremor.

Hanmer Springs, about 90 kilometres from Christchurch, which was devastated five years ago by a 6.3 tremor. The tsunami arrived in the north-eastern coast less than two hours later, with authorities saying bigger waves are expected in the coming hours. Prime Minister John Key confirmed two fatalities in his address to the nation. “New Zealanders responded as they should have. They took the (Civil Defence) advice seriously,” he said. It is not clear if any Australians have been injured. News Corp Australia has contacted the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade for comment.

Police said they were trying to reach a remote property 150 kilometres north of Christchurch where a casualty, “believed to be a fatality”, has been reported, according to AFP. Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said there were also reports of casualties at the nearby South Island coastal town of Kaikoura, but details were unclear. Local media reported emergency services were searching for a missing person in a collapsed homestead near Kaikoura. A second person who had been thought missing in the building was found alive.

Information from the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre indicated that the tsunami waves could be highest around the South Island town of Kaikoura, at about 1.5 metres. The Hawaii-based centre said it did not expect the quake to generate a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami. Within New Zealand, there was confusion about the tsunami threat. The ministry initially sent out a message on Twitter saying there was no tsunami threat.

But then it sent out another message — “situation has changed — tsunami is possible” — before reporting that a tsunami had hit. The ministry then said people on the coast near the epicentre could expect waves of between three and five metres. Clutha District and Dunedin, the South Island’s second largest city, were both evacuating low-lying coastal areas following the tsunami threat. Emergency services in Dunedin declared a state of emergency, but it has now been lifted, according to an official notice on Twitter.

Near the epicentre, it opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. Authorities in Wellington were urging people who work in the centre of the city to stay home on today. City officials said that some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress, and that the quake would likely have caused a mess in some buildings. The city’s suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels.

the quake was the worst she’s ever felt. “It was like my house was on a bungee cord - boom, boom, boom, backwards and forwards. I just couldn’t stand up no matter what,” she said. Anna Harcourt told the Herald Sun : “I was asleep and all off a sudden I was woken to my bedroom shaking. It just went on and on and there was a moment when I genuinely thought that this was it, that my life was going to end.” Ms Harcourt said she ran out of her bedroom and hid for cover under a table. “As soon as the trembling stopped my boyfriend and I ran outside and saw heaps of people and families gathered together,” she said. “Everyone is in complete shock … it’s terrifying.”</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113190900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="financialexpress-236dfc5a282eedb49c726be67accd89c" duplicate="nst-7fbd1f417c724dd6e5a755bd3252d621"><title>Earthquake in New Zealand again! 6.2 magnitude quake strikes near Christchurch: USGS</title><link>http://www.financialexpress.com/world-news/earthquake-in-new-zealand-again-6-2-magnitude-quake-strikes-near-christchurch-usgs/445144/</link><description>A strong new earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 struck New Zealand's South Island hours after a more powerful quake killed two people and damaged buildings.

A strong new earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 struck New Zealand’s South Island on Monday, the US Geological Survey said, hours after a more powerful quake killed two people and damaged buildings along the east coast of the South Island.

The latest quake was initially measured with a magnitude of 6.8. It struck at about 1.45 p.m. local time (0045 GMT) at a depth of 10 km, about 120 km northeast of Christchurch, the USGS said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114035100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="brisbanetimes-0e09b097968424d54f42c6ed6fdcd32c"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Hundreds of aftershocks pepper North and South islands</title><link>http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/technology/sci-tech/new-zealand-earthquake-hundreds-of-aftershocks-pepper-north-and-south-islands-20161113-gsoip2.html</link><description>GeoNet released an initial report of expected likely scenarios.

Scenario 1 (Very likely): a normal aftershock sequence over the next few months. This means gradually diminishing size and frequency of seismic events. Scenario 2 (Likely): Possible rupture earthquake of magnitude 6 in North Canterbury and/or offshore. Scenario 3 (Unlikely): Another large earthquake above magnitude 7 within a month in the Marlborough and Cook Strait regions. GeoNet measured the quake at a magnitude of 7.5, although the United States Geological Survey said it was of a 7.8 magnitude and Geoscience Australia said the event was of a 7.9 magnitude. "There are a number of ways we can look at an earthquake," Mr Jaksa said. He said GeoNet relied on measuring close readings, which can "saturate" the measurement devices causing what he called "clipping".

The first measurements from an earthquake are the "p-waves", which are compression waves travelling through the earth, much like sound waves. Mr Jaksa said these dispersion waves allow detection of a quake's location and an initial estimate of its size. Following the "p-waves" seismologists measure "s-waves", which are slower moving shear waves travelling perpendicular to the direction of the p-waves. Seismologists then measure even slower surface waves that shake the crust in rolling waves allowing a better understanding of the event.

Mr Jaksa said GeoNet relied on more localised measurements, whereas Geoscience Australia incorporated more longer-period waves. USGS uses a similar method, explaining why the US and Australian agencies have issued similar magnitudes for the event. He said the NZ measurement was more like the older Richter scale, which measured amplitudes of seismic waves. The current scales incorporate measurements of earth movement. Ms Little said that GeoNet's use of local stations gave it a better ability to locate the epicentre and determine whether it was one or two seismic events. "We're pretty confident it was two," she said. Mr Jaksa said: "These scales are logarithmic, which means each unit increase represents a 10 times increase in size. "However, this doesn't account for the amount of energy released. The event overnight released 50 times the amount of energy than the 6.1 magnitude Christchurch quake did in 2011." That quake was just five kilometres underground and 10 kilometres from the city centre. It killed 185 people. Mr Jaksa said: "This is the most active seismic site on earth. It stretches from the Solomon Islands through Vanuatu and down to New Zealand. "The Pacific Plate is going under the Australian Plate along this area. The Pacific Plate is moving 11 centimetres a year in a west-north-west direction. The Australian Plate is moving north-east at about seven centimetres a year," he said.​</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114010900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="theage-6a3215bd825f9ed1a0d435a8e18a3a35" duplicate="brisbanetimes-0e09b097968424d54f42c6ed6fdcd32c"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Hundreds of aftershocks pepper North and South islands</title><link>http://www.theage.com.au/technology/sci-tech/new-zealand-earthquake-hundreds-of-aftershocks-pepper-north-and-south-islands-20161113-gsoip2.html</link><description>GeoNet released an initial report of expected likely scenarios.

Ms Little said that GeoNet's use of local stations gave it a better ability to locate the epicentre and determine whether it was one or two seismic events. "We're pretty confident it was two," she said.

"However, this doesn't account for the amount of energy released. The event overnight released 50 times the amount of energy than the 6.1 magnitude Christchurch quake did in 2011." That quake was just five kilometres underground and 10 kilometres from the city centre. It killed 185 people. Mr Jaksa said: "This is the most active seismic site on earth. It stretches from the Solomon Islands through Vanuatu and down to New Zealand. "The Pacific Plate is going under the Australian Plate along this area. The Pacific Plate is moving 11 centimetres a year in a west-north-west direction. The Australian Plate is moving north-east at about seven centimetres a year," he said.​ However, along the South Island things get complicated. Here the Australian Plate is largely going under the Pacific Plate.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114011300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="smh-6a3215bd825f9ed1a0d435a8e18a3a35" duplicate="brisbanetimes-0e09b097968424d54f42c6ed6fdcd32c"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Hundreds of aftershocks pepper North and South islands</title><link>http://www.smh.com.au/technology/sci-tech/new-zealand-earthquake-hundreds-of-aftershocks-pepper-north-and-south-islands-20161113-gsoip2.html</link><description>GeoNet released an initial report of expected likely scenarios.

Scenario 1 (Very likely): a normal aftershock sequence over the next few months. This means gradually diminishing size and frequency of seismic events. Scenario 2 (Likely): Possible rupture earthquake of magnitude 6 in North Canterbury and/or offshore. Scenario 3 (Unlikely): Another large earthquake above magnitude 7 within a month in the Marlborough and Cook Strait regions. GeoNet measured the quake at a magnitude of 7.5, although the United States Geological Survey said it was of a 7.8 magnitude and Geoscience Australia said the event was of a 7.9 magnitude. "There are a number of ways we can look at an earthquake," Mr Jaksa said. He said GeoNet relied on measuring close readings, which can "saturate" the measurement devices causing what he called "clipping".

The first measurements from an earthquake are the "p-waves", which are compression waves travelling through the earth, much like sound waves. Mr Jaksa said these dispersion waves allow detection of a quake's location and an initial estimate of its size. Following the "p-waves" seismologists measure "s-waves", which are slower moving shear waves travelling perpendicular to the direction of the p-waves. Seismologists then measure even slower surface waves that shake the crust in rolling waves allowing a better understanding of the event.

Mr Jaksa said GeoNet relied on more localised measurements, whereas Geoscience Australia incorporated more longer-period waves. USGS uses a similar method, explaining why the US and Australian agencies have issued similar magnitudes for the event. He said the NZ measurement was more like the older Richter scale, which measured amplitudes of seismic waves. The current scales incorporate measurements of earth movement.

The first wave of the tsunami arrived at Kaikoura just before 2am on Monday local time, according to the NZ Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management. Prime Minister John Key confirmed at least two people have died in the earthquake. He said he ordered a military helicopter to the Kairkoura region which has been cut off. He said: 'We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out.' The Civil Defence has warned 'destructive waves' will continue and people on the country's east coast have been ordered to move to high ground. Although, those alerts have now been downgraded to 'coastal warnings'. Prime Minister John Key confirmed at least two people have died in the earthquake.

The first wave of the tsunami arrived at Kaikoura just before 2am on Monday local time, according to the NZ Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management. Prime Minister John Key confirmed at least two people have died in the earthquake. He said he ordered a military helicopter to the Kairkoura region which has been cut off. He said: 'We don't have any indications at the moment to believe it will rise, but we can't rule that out.' The Civil Defence has warned 'destructive waves' will continue and people on the country's east coast have been ordered to move to high ground. Although, those alerts have now been downgraded to 'coastal warnings'. Prime Minister John Key confirmed at least two people have died in the earthquake.

New Zealand’s Civil Defence warned residents along the country’s entire east coast to seek higher ground. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one metre (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. The quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor, which was measured by New Zealand’s Geonet at magnitude 6.6, was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Civil Defence said it was too early to assess the damage or whether there had been any injuries or deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman who gave her name as Elizabeth told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island. Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets.

There were no immediate reports of casualties. The New Zealand government's GeoNet website said the quake was "felt widely" throughout the country and warned citizens to watch out for aftershocks. Christchurch has a population of over 340,000 people, according to the most recent government census. In February 2011, a 6.3 earthquake left 185 people dead in the South Island city of Christhurch. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called "Ring of Fire", and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113133800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nst-4406030ac78f5d32fde881a5f051e281" duplicate="jpost-c78cb5f536597d952ca58d835fbd69f0"><title>Magnitude 7.4 earthquake strikes near Christchurch, New Zealand</title><link>http://www.nst.com.my/news/2016/11/188338/magnitude-74-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch-new-zealand</link><description>An earthquake with a magnitude of 7.4 struck 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of the city of Christchurch, New Zealand just after midnight (1102 GMT Sunday), the U.S. Geological Survey said.

The Ministry of Civil Defence &amp; Emergency Management has updated its statement on the earthquake and tsunami after reports of casualties in the town of Kaikoura. The US Geological Survey says the magnitude was 7.8, while officials in New Zealand have estimated it at 7.5. Here is the statement in full: “Around midnight on Monday 14 November a magnitude 7.5 earthquake occurred 15 km northeast of Culverden in the South Island, at a depth of 15 km. Since then, there have been several severe earthquakes in the Seddon and Kaikoura region. Strong earthquakes have been felt in Wellington. Early indications are that the quakes originated from the Hope Fault. “The Ministry of Civil Defence &amp; Emergency Management (MCDEM) has issued a tsunami warning and land threat from East Cape to Southland, including Wellington (which also includes the Cook Straight area), Marlborough Sounds/Tasman Bay and the Chatham Islands, and a marine and beach threat for all other New Zealand coastal areas. “The first tsunami waves have arrived but it is too early to know what damage or casualties there may have been. Further waves should be expected and may be larger or more dangerous. New Zealanders should stay off the beaches, stay out of the water, and not go sightseeing. “People are encouraged to keep themselves informed and follow the advice of their local civil defence groups as the situation develops around the country. Spread the word to any family or friends who are living or staying near the coast.

There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries. There was no immediate danger of a tsunami, according to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center. The magnitude-7.4 quake struck just after midnight Sunday and was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles).

Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow.

New Zealand sits on the “Ring of Fire,” an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. An earthquake in 2011 in Christchurch killed 185 people.

It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. An earthquake in 2011 in Christchurch killed 185 people.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113131400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="siouxcityjournal-fb9a6d5f77a21c01df147304bd8076ac"><title>The Latest: Powerful New Zealand quake causes local tsunami</title><link>http://siouxcityjournal.com/news/world/the-latest-powerful-new-zealand-quake-causes-local-tsunami/article_a87dbc06-9fb0-5e5b-8654-a0feee53129e.html</link><description>Want to become a subscriber?

Pic: Richard Bicknell. A tsunami has hit New Zealand's South Island after a series of powerful earthquakes struck across the centre of the country. New Zealand's Geonet says the majority of the quakes were on land. The largest quake was 7.4 magnitude, according to the United States Geological Survey. It hit 57 miles (91km) from the the city of Christchurch, which was badly damaged by one that measured 6.3 in 2011. The initial tremor was followed by several aftershocks, further north and also inland - including a several above magnitude 6. The February 2011 tremor was just a few miles outside of New Zealand's third biggest town and caused widespread damage and left 185 people dead. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no risk of a tsunami from the first quake which struck just after midnight on Monday, local time. But NZ civil defence later revised the warning, saying anyone near the east coast of the South Island should move to higher ground. There are reports that waves of up to two metres may have hit the Kaikoura area. The civil defence tweeted: "A tsunami has been generated, the first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island." It added: "The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours. Waves are expected to arrive at the Chatham islands immediately - anyone in the Chathams should move to high ground urgently." Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information for the country, listed dozens of quakes between 6.6 and 3.8 after 12.02am local time. The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of six miles (10km). Shallow tremors are said to be felt more strongly on the surface. Strong jolts were reported over 120 miles (200km) away in the capital, Wellington, where at least several tweeters posted pictures of damage to their homes and other buildings. Witnesses in Christchurch have told Sky News that the tremors lasted for a longer time that previous quakes but were less intense. But others further north described strong shaking, with some calling the feeling "weird". One Tweeter, Rick Kiesseg, posted: "Primary New Zealand #earthquake lasted about a minute. Long, long, long shake and roll. About 17 aftershocks so far, biggest mag 6.1" More follows...</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113142400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="AP-4316dee9f14475597f69ff299e5b7e66" duplicate="fox13memphis-209626db251a105587c3fb33c49d9eed"><title>The Latest: Powerful New Zealand quake causes local tsunami</title><link>http://hosted2.ap.org/APDEFAULT/cae69a7523db45408eeb2b3a98c0c9c5/Article_2016-11-13-AS--New%20Zealand-Earthquake-The%20Latest/id-8895da2cb4da4883b2c1dab1d662cb06</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) â€” The Latest on a strong earthquake that has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand (all times local): 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T14:29+0100</pubDate><source url="http://hosted2.ap.org/atom/APDEFAULT/cae69a7523db45408eeb2b3a98c0c9c5" country="US">AP</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>AP-4316dee9f14475597f69ff299e5b7e66</guid><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiRO</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="defense[1]; civil[1]; ">CivilProtection_general</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="earthquake[2]; damage[2]; magnitude-7[1]; quake[2]; struck[2]; coast[1]; ">Earthquakes</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiFR</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="120" emm:trigger="tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiES</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="injuries[1]; earthquake[2]; tsunami[2]; ">NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="160" emm:trigger="earthquake[2]; tsunami[2]; ">CPSI-NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="40" emm:trigger="WELLINGTON[1]; Wellington[1]; New Zealand[4]; geo[Christchurch];geo[Wellington];">NewZealand</category><emm:favicon>http://h2branding.ap.org/ftphosted/Customdesign/mnTmpl/favicon.ico</emm:favicon><emm:georss name="Christchurch:-:Canterbury:New Zealand" id="16844969" lat="-43.5235" lon="172.638" count="3" pos="149,508,747" class="2" iso="NZ" charpos="149,508,747" wordlen="12,12,12" score="43">Christchurch</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Wellington:Carterton District:Wellington:New Zealand" id="16848553" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="2" pos="61,634" class="1" iso="NZ" charpos="61,634" wordlen="10,10" score="242">Wellington</emm:georss><emm:fullgeo name="New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand" id="169" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="4" pos="21,73,163,204" class="-1" iso="NZ" charpos="21,73,163,204" wordlen="11,11,11,11" score="4">New Zealand</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Wellington:Division No.  8:Manitoba:Canada" id="303700008" lat="54.926272934445" lon="-97.433197709217" count="2" pos="61,634" class="10" iso="CA" charpos="61,634" wordlen="10,10" score="2">Wellington</emm:fullgeo><emm:tonality>-4</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="125">WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) â€” The Latest on a strong earthquake that has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand (all times local): 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island.

The strong jolts caused some damage to buildings over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away in the capital, Wellington. New Zealand emergency services warned people near the coast of the South Island to move to higher ground following the magnitude-7.4 quake. In Wellington, 214 kilometers (132 miles) north of the quake’s epicenter, power was knocked out in some places, and some windows smashed and some chimneys collapsed.

There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The quake, which struck just after midnight Sunday, was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they’re shallow. The quake brought back memories of a 2011 earthquake that struck Christchurch, destroying much of the city and killing 185 people. But Monday’s quake was much farther away from any major population centers.

However, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center did not issue a warning following the quake and there were no immediate reports of casualties. "Based on all available data a destructive Pacific-wide tsunami is not expected," reported the center. The New Zealand government's GeoNet website said the quake was "felt widely" throughout the country and warned citizens to watch out for aftershocks. Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, said the shaking lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP. She said there was no sign of damage on her street and the power was still on, adding that she was worried about towns and villages closer to the epicentre. "We're getting aftershocks at the moment. We're going to stock up on water supplies just in case." In September, a strong 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck the east coast of New Zealand, generating a small tsunami, but no significant damage or injuries were reported. In February 2011, a 6.3 earthquake left 185 people dead in the South Island city of Christhurch. New Zealand is on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, which form part of the so-called "Ring of Fire", and experiences up to 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113142700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="wncn-ee5071502a6fb80d6fa27f208c2fec38" duplicate="fox13memphis-209626db251a105587c3fb33c49d9eed"><title>The Latest: Powerful New Zealand quake causes local tsunami</title><link>http://wncn.com/ap/the-latest-powerful-new-zealand-quake-causes-local-tsunami/</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand (all times local): 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island.</description><emm:contentType>text/html</emm:contentType><pubDate>2016-11-13T14:32+0100</pubDate><source url="http://wncn.com/category/news-raleigh-durham-fayetteville-north-carolina/feed/" country="US">wncn</source><iso:language>en</iso:language><guid>wncn-ee5071502a6fb80d6fa27f208c2fec38</guid><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiRO</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="defense[1]; civil[1]; ">CivilProtection_general</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="0" emm:trigger="earthquake[2]; damage[2]; magnitude-7[1]; quake[2]; struck[2]; coast[1]; ">Earthquakes</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiFR</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="120" emm:trigger="tsunami[2]; ">ET_TsunamiES</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="100" emm:trigger="injuries[1]; earthquake[2]; tsunami[2]; ">NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="160" emm:trigger="earthquake[2]; tsunami[2]; ">CPSI-NaturalDisasters</category><category emm:rank="0" emm:score="40" emm:trigger="WELLINGTON[1]; Wellington[1]; New Zealand[4]; geo[Christchurch];geo[Wellington];">NewZealand</category><emm:favicon>http://0.gravatar.com/blavatar/caee67290db345cd25db23a5a27c462f?s=32</emm:favicon><emm:georss name="Christchurch:-:Canterbury:New Zealand" id="16844969" lat="-43.5235" lon="172.638" count="3" pos="147,506,745" class="2" iso="NZ" charpos="147,506,745" wordlen="12,12,12" score="43">Christchurch</emm:georss><emm:georss name="Wellington:Carterton District:Wellington:New Zealand" id="16848553" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="2" pos="61,632" class="1" iso="NZ" charpos="61,632" wordlen="10,10" score="242">Wellington</emm:georss><emm:fullgeo name="New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand:New Zealand" id="169" lat="-41.3348" lon="174.807" count="4" pos="21,73,161,202" class="-1" iso="NZ" charpos="21,73,161,202" wordlen="11,11,11,11" score="4">New Zealand</emm:fullgeo><emm:fullgeo name="Wellington:Division No.  8:Manitoba:Canada" id="303700008" lat="54.926272934445" lon="-97.433197709217" count="2" pos="61,632" class="10" iso="CA" charpos="61,632" wordlen="10,10" score="2">Wellington</emm:fullgeo><emm:tonality>-4</emm:tonality><emm:text wordCount="124">WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — The Latest on a strong earthquake that has struck near Christchurch, New Zealand (all times local): 2:10 a.m. New Zealand authorities say a powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island.

A tsunami hit two hours after the earthquake. The US Geological Survey said the quake hit just after midnight, around 95 km from Christchurch, BBC reported. Officials who have warned the residents to head inland or for higher ground along the coast, said the first waves may not be the largest, with tsunami activity possible for several hours. A gauge at Kaikoura, 181 km north of Christchurch, measured a wave of two metres, according to Weatherwatch.co.nz. Smaller waves are said to be arriving in Wellington and other areas, the website said. Thousands of people have already evacuated their homes, Radio reported. New Zealand Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. According to the Herald newspaper, the tremor was felt all the way to Wellington, where sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. On his second trip to the country, Sidharth loved Christchurch. "It has nice, easy vibes and it's comparatively younger I feel. It is less populated, which again makes this place very attractive for people like us who come from India. Its secluded, scenic, relaxed nature makes it a complete destination for anybody," he said.

St John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters to the epicentre of the quake - 57 miles (91km) north of the South Island city of Christchurch.

There are some reports of injuries in the area, but acting defence minister Gerry Brownlee said "the picture will become clearer as day breaks". Prime Minister John Key also told reporters that a military helicopter was heading to Kaikoura. The quake hit just after midnight local time. The initial tremor was followed by aftershocks, including several above magnitude 6.

Strong jolts were also felt in Wellington, some 120 miles (200km) north and there was gridlock on roads leading to Mount Victoria - a hill overlooking the capital. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," said Wellington resident Howard Warner 

Officials said there was structural damage to some buildings in Wellington and people were being warned to say away from the central business district. The train network was closed for checks but the airport was still operating normally. New Zealand's Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information, listed dozens of quakes between 3.8 and 6.6. Hugh Sintes, from Christchurch, told Sky News: "My wife had gone off to the bathroom, I had just lay down on my bed and all of all of a sudden the bed started wobbling and it got more and more intense. "And I thought 'okay this is getting a bit serious'. It continued on and on - it got quite concerning."

The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of nine miles (15km). Shallow tremors are felt more strongly on the surface. Rick Kiesseg said on Twitter: "Primary New Zealand #earthquake lasted about a minute. Long, long, long shake and roll. About 17 aftershocks so far, biggest mag 6.1" The February 2011 earthquake hit just a few miles outside Christchurch, New Zealand's third biggest city, causing widespread damage and leaving 185 people dead. New Zealand lies on the boundary of two tectonic plates and is on the so-called 'Ring of Fire' - an area prone to earthquakes. The country experience as many as 15,000 tremors a year.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113193300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="independent-UK-cff3c04db53e4374f606ceb2aebae79c"><title>New Zealand earthquake today: 7.4 earthquake hits country&amp;apos;s South Island</title><link>http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/australasia/new-zealand-earthquake-today-tsunami-warning-aftershocks-christchurch-pacific-live-latest-updates-a7414776.html</link><description>New Zealand's Civil Defence authority described the threat of the wave as “an event of life-threatening or national significance” and warned people to stay away from beaches along the entire coastline.

"end of the world". With her parents Dr Anthea and Snip Prentice she sought shelter, sobbing as the violence of the quake rolled on and on. It hit 16km deep and hit about 20km south-east of Hanmer Springs. The 7.5 magnitude quake was felt across the country - a greater magnitude than either of those which did so much damage to Christchurch in 2010 and 2011. But the duration of the quake is what stayed with most. It went on and on. "It was like someone picked up the house and started shaking us," said Prentice. The three escaped the house for the lawn and as they fled, the cliff top home succumbed to the constant shaking to become a ruin.

"And then when it shifted into second gear... Can't believe we've got to get used to these all again." Nick Sorensen was in Wellington's Aamora Hotel with his family. "We grabbed our girls and ran for the stairs - walls cracking and plaster falling around us. "We ended up trapped behind a 2.5m barbed wire topped fence outside the kitchen and those around us we're screaming for someone to open it. We ended up throwing jerseys and cardboard over the gate and climbing it - a couple of those with us helped lift our daughters over." Nearby, Lizzie Phillips told how she saw cracks appearing in the stairwell walls as she fled the building. "I just didn't realise that the building would sway so much being on the fifth floor. I don't really like the idea of going back up there." "I thought I was going to die," said TsunJeck Lim, 26. He was shaken awake on the 10th floor of a central Wellington apartment building. Water poured from the roof as pipes burst. His furniture and possessions were strewn across the apartment. "Things started shaking and then things started falling one by one. I thought the building was going to collapse, but it stopped and I just ran down the stairs." A house north of Christchurch demolished by the 7.5 magnitude earthquake that struck today Photo / Broadcast Media. It is now known at least two people lost their lives. One person is believed to have died in Kaikoura, which this morning is cut off from the country. Throughout the early hours, the coastal town continued to shake as aftershocks rolled through the country. Kaikoura caught the immediate brunt, and civil defence staff walked uncertain and shaky streets with megaphones, urging people to get to higher ground as fears grew over a possible tsunami. To the south of the town is a peninsula which offers a clear lookout along the coastline. It also offered refuge to those wanting to escape the coast. Before dawn, it was crowded with people - many who had abandoned cars and walked to safety. Worry over the aftermath was focused on the sea as tsunami warnings blared along the east coast. In Timaru, ships berth at the town's port were put to sea as a precaution against unpredictable seas. Christchurch, well versed in earthquake response, evacuated from the coast inwards to the city centre. At New Brighton, tsunami sirens sounded through the night. Kineta Booker spent much of the night in her car with her husband and toddler after leaving their home near the coast. Booker said out of nowhere supermarket staff started checking on people in the car park, handing out fruit to those who were forced to leave their homes. "Everyone was queued up and these angels came out of nowhere and they were making sure everyone was doing okay, even while they're probably freaking out themselves." After the quake the couple headed north towards Oxford but stopped at Cust. "Hundreds upon hundreds of people are parked up, sleeping on the side of the road. It's surreal." One family later returned to find thieves had ransacked the property. "Our house has been broken into and the work truck been stolen, TV, house is a mess," she said. Tsunami sirens also sounded around the capital. While most sought higher ground, some headed for the coast to watch water surging in and out. That potentially deadly curiousity drew others - police on roads to the beach waved down and turned joyriders away. There was keen concern at Lyall Bay in Wellington with reports water had withdrawn about 200m, the chilling precursor to a tidal wave. Earthquake damage at Petone. Photo / Twitter. Eventually, the city streets became filled with cars as those close to the sea sought higher ground. Czech Filip Sebek - in New Zealand for five weeks - spent some of the night in his car in the hills around Lyall Bay after seeing a tsunami warning on the Internet. "At first I didn't know what was happening and after that, it was an earthquake so... Run away." Truck driver Mark Fletcher went to Wellington port at 2am and watched a tidal surge. "We noticed the water got really high and the lines on the [Bluebridge] ferry snapped. You could see all the water rushing out of the harbour will all the debris and stuff. "The water would have come up about a metre and a half. It had a really eerie feeling about it all." All sailings of the Interislander ferry were cancelled until damage could be assessed, leaving passengers stranded aboard until the all clear is given. The Tory Channel, leading into Queen Charlotte Sound, was closed for fear of tidal surges. Shipping workers at Kings Wharf freight shipping terminal in Wellington, fled when water began spurting from beneath them. "It was just panic stations," said one man. "Water was coming up from the wharf, we had about five seconds to evacuate. The freight office started shaking and we thought the wharf was going to sink so we ran up the terminal and water was coming up from the ground. "We were waiting for it to stop, but once we realised it was just powering up we just ran." Damage caused by the earthquake at CentrePort in Wellington. Photo / Mark Mitchell. The extent of the quake's damage is yet to be understood. Military helicopters were heading for parts of the country isolated by damage. Daylight gave us a flavour of what is to come. The road which runs closest to the centre is State Highway 70, running through North Canterbury from Culverden to Kaikoura. This morning, it was closed with reports of damage to bridges, buildings and roads. It passes through Waiau, a settlement of about 500 people just kilometres from the epicentre of the quake. The town is badly damaged, with collapsed bridges and power and phone lines down. Rubble covers the roads leading to the town, with the highway itself fractured and split in parts. One of the quake's victims came from this town - a woman who suffered medical problems after leaving her home. Reporter Chelsea Daniels walked into the town, making her way carefully across the Waiau River bridge. She said the school swimming pool was ruined, homes visibly damaged including dozens with broken chimneys. Roads were cracked, and the town's war memorial was in pieces. The Waiau Lodge Hotel was "pretty well buggered", said local Brent Proffitt. "The chimneys have exploded inside, there are cracks in the foundation and plaster has fallen off. It's taken an absolute hiding. Food from the freezer from the badly damaged hotel was being used to feed the community. "Everyone is banding together and we're getting into the community spirit." Proffitt called the quake "a doozy". "It was just into it. There was no warning, just into it and it was long." State Highway 7 from Waipara to Springs Junction is also closed today. Again, damage to bridges and roads made progress dangerous. In Culverden, which suffered sporadic damage, farmers were dealing with cracked milking pads. Local Sam Smith said friends had spoken of huge damage to dairy sheds. "They're absolutely totalled. There's liquefaction everywhere as well which is kind of crazy."

The prospect of a tsunami saw evacuation centres open and people moving away from the coast. Concern over damage to bridges, particularly on the road south from Blenheim, saw more roads closed. Buildings in the town's centre were damaged and shop front windows broken - firefighters with cordons marked hazards in the town. The force of the quake struck businesses and homes in Kaikoura. Water and sewerage services were lost, power and phone lines were cut. The coastal routes which hug the rugged coastline north and south of the town were closed, clay and rubble covered the roads. Tunnels along the route - a signal delight for travellers - were turned hazards. Elaine Powell was at her daughter's home in Glencree Rd, Oaro, south of Kaikoura. "No one is hurt thank goodness," she said. The floor of the home had been torn apart from the force of the earthquake and a fireplace thrown about exposing a giant hole in the wall where it used to stand. Drawers were yanked from cabinets and the contents of cupboards and the fridge smashed on the floor. Powell, her daughter and two young grandchildren were unharmed, in shock and trapped on their property. The only bridge out had lost road on either side, leaving it about half-a-metre clear. "Even if they could get over that the roads to Kaikoura and to Christchurch are down," she said. In Wellington, where Prime Minister John Key was being briefed at the Beehive's emergency bunker, daylight revealed the TSB Arena and BNZ Centre as having suffered the most damage. The damage was obvious to those walking the streets. Some were cast out of hotels, others came out to escape the city centre. While structures appeared to withstand the worst of it, cement and plaster and other materials covering the bones of the buildings was loosed to the streets below. In some cases, they crashed through glass awnings to shower footpaths with chips amid the rubble. From the civil defence bunker, Acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee urged Kiwis to seek each other out. "The sort of holding hand you can put out to anyone who is distressed would be very welcome."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114014600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-5a2922f03b6a9d903af956ecd1695dd8"><title>Earthquake: Severe 7.5 quake hits Hanmer Springs, felt widely across New Zealand as tsunami warning issued</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86416268/Earthquake-Severe-7-5-quake-hits-Hanmer-Springs-felt-widely-across-New-Zealand-as-tsunami-warning-issued</link><description>Brooke Bath said just before 3am that aftershocks were continuing to hit Christchurch about every 10 minutes.

about every 10 minutes. "It's still a decent shake. They're rattling the doors, but nothing is [like] what it was. I think when [the quake] first hit it must have gone on for about a minute." HANMER SPRINGS AND AROUND Hurunui locals are trying to get into Waiau to check on family and friends left isolated after the initial earthquake. Christchurch student April Clarke spent the early hours of the morning trying to get in touch with friends in the town. She hasn't been able to contact anyone. "There are six people in Waiau nobody can get a hold of," Clarke said. Corey Odonnell tried driving to Waiau, but parts of the road appeared to be impassable. Fallen farm buildings are scattered along the road from Culverden to Waiau. Waiau, a town on State Highway 70, is only a few kilometres east of the original quake's epicentre. Power and telephone services appeared to be down for the town. Landslips were blocking parts of State Highway Seven between Waipara and Springs Junction, a Hurunui District Council spokeswoman said. There were also reports of damaged bridges on roads near Hanmer and Waiau, she said. Buildings had also been damaged in the area. Jane Thompson, who lives near Cheviot in North Canterbury, said it was a "long, rolling earthquake". She had spoken to some residents in the Cheviot township and heard reports of minor damage. "We are eight kilometres from coast so are staying put," she said. Hanmer Springs Civil Defence coordinator David Smith said people in the North Canterbury town were "looking after each other". "Daylight will give another view on things but the village has been checked, the fire brigade have done a thorough drive around all the village and basically the only damage we are aware of is a broken water main pipe at Queen Mary Hospital." Civil Defence have advised all evacuated coastal towns in the Hurunui district are to remain closed until further notice. All residents on the Cheviot water scheme and rural water schemes have been asked to conserve water, and should continue to boil water as a precautionary measure. Spark's cellphone network is down in the Waiau area, and power is out in the Hanmer Springs, Culverden and Cheviot areas. MARLBOROUGH AND NELSON. Around 2000 people are still without power in Marlborough following the earthquake. Marlborough Lines operations manager Brian Tapp said at 4am that there was no power in Seddon, Ward, the Awatere Valley or anywhere south to Clarence Bridge. Because of the reports of damaged houses in Seddon, Tapp said the lines company was hesitant to switch power back on remotely. Their 33,000 volt line north of Ward had been damaged, and there reports of wires breaking, he said. Affected residents would have to wait until morning, when engineers were better able to assess the damage, before there was a clearer idea of when power would be restored. Marlborough Kaikoura Rural Fire Authority principal rural fire officer Richard McNamara advised people to head for higher ground as there was a tsunami warning in place. "If it's long and strong, be gone," he said. "At this stage there's a tsunami threat so our advice is to move to higher ground." "There has been damage, the scale and size we're unsure of at this stage. There is damage to infrastructure, council staff are currently assessing that." Residents of the small settlements north of Blenheim are being moved to higher ground, a Marlborough District Council spokeswoman said. An evacuation centre had been opened at the Tuamarina Hall following the tsunami warning. Marlborough Civil Defence controller Richard McNamara said fire crews, DOC staff and police were working together. Residents of the lower Wairau plain east of State Highway 1 were being advised to move to higher ground. SH1 is closed at Ward with damage reported at the Ure Bridge. A road block is in place just north of Blenheim, at Riverlands, and people are being urged to keep off the road if possible. Bridges at Spring Creek and near Tuamarina are also closed, while damage is assessed. Emergency staff are door-knocking at Seddon, south of Blenheim, however there is no report of damage to the area yet. The Marlborough harbourmaster has closed Tory Channel to shipping until more advice is received on the impact of the tsunami. McNamara said it will be daylight before there is a full assessment of damage and in the meantime people are urged to stay off the roads and conserve water. Nelson resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". The former Christchurch resident said it was a much longer, more rolling motion than the 2010 Canterbury quake. Davis, who lives in the central city suburb of The Wood, said she was surprised there appeared to be no damage to the house. "It really shook for a long time." BLENHEIM. There is some damage in central Blenheim, with shop windows broken. Blenheim Volunteer Fire Station is cordoned off, and firefighters are on high alert. Some families have packed their emergency kits in their cars in preparation to leave. Blenheim Countdown store manager Liz Nelson said the earthquake had knocked a lot of stock off the shelves. The night fill and pricing teams that were in the store at the time were all okay, and had gathered outside the building following the earthquake. "There's a bit of damage on the back wall, cracks in the plaster, but mostly it's stock on the floor," she said. There were unconfirmed reports of looting. A police officer that stopped at the Countdown told staff about potential looting at a nearby chemist. Blenheim resident Gemma Adams said she was lying in bed when she started to feel the bed swaying. The length of the earthquake made it terrifying, Adams said. "We were lying there going, 'what do we do, what do we do'." Adams and her partner ran to the kitchen and got under the table. Electricity is out between Ward and Seddon and also in other pockets around Blenheim and surrounding townships. WAIKATO AND BAY OF PLENTY. The tsunami warning for Waikato and Bay of Plenty has been lowered to a marine and beach threat, but Civil Defence are warning that could change. For now, though, residents can return home but are being asked to stay off the beaches and away from waterways. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it. Hataitai resident and reporter Rachel Thomas said her flatmates woke up to their weatherboard house groaning. "Our cockatiel fell off his perch. The aftershocks just keep coming. Three of us are huddling under the kitchen table in our dressing gowns with a trembling bird in between." Power and phones were out in Waikanae on the Kapiti Coast. TARANAKI. Thousands of people are without electricity in New Plymouth, Stratford, Eltham and Hawera. Some powerlines are down and power may not be restored until the morning in some areas. Many residents have taken to Facebook to say they were woken and scared by the quake and that aftershocks are still being felt. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113175300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="theepochtimes-2ea6069a8280abb330161225ff2f2613" duplicate="whittierdailynews-921dd67d0b156375bc1d038a683a8731"><title>Powerful Quake Strikes New Zealand, Triggering Small Tsunami</title><link>http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/2185167-powerful-quake-strikes-new-zealand-triggering-small-tsunami-2/</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand—A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand’s South Island early Monday, shaking residents awake, causing damage to buildings and prompting emergency services to warn people along the coast to move to higher ground to avoid tsunami waves.

The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck just after midnight in a mostly rural area close to the city of Christchurch, but appeared to be more strongly felt in Wellington, the capital, more than 200 kilometers (120 miles) to the north. Residents said the shaking went on for about three minutes, and was followed by a number of strong aftershocks. The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand’s emergency call number, 111, police reported. Near the epicenter, it opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated.

The full extent of the damage is unlikely to be known before daybreak. Authorities in Wellington were urging people who work in the center of the city to stay home on Monday. City officials said that some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress, and that the quake would likely have caused a mess in some buildings. The city’s suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. While there were no immediate reports of serious injuries in Wellington or Christchurch, the quake brought back memories of the magnitude-6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011, destroying much of the downtown area and killing 185 people. That quake was one of New Zealand’s worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. Although Monday’s quake was stronger, its epicenter was much farther from any major urban areas. Location, depth and other factors beyond magnitude all contribute to how destructive an earthquake can be.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113181500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="newson6-2fb395487c81cb2bfb7e457d22dfb1fa"><title>Police: Deadly Officer-Involved Shooting In SW OKC</title><link>http://www.newson6.com/story/33696695/police-deadly-officer-involved-shooting-in-sw-okc</link><description>OKLAHOMA CITY - Police say one man is dead after a shootout with two Oklahoma City police officers.

The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management initially said there was no threat of a tsunami but then warned those near the coast on the South Island that a tsunami was possible and advised people to stay out of the water and avoid beaches and shorelines. It warned people to expect aftershocks and a host above magnitude 5 were recorded with the biggest a 6.2 shake situated 15km north of Kaikoura. A St John Ambulance spokesman said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. It was monitoring the situation but had yet to activate its emergency operations centre. Some areas lost power after the quake and there were reports on social media of people on the streets in downtown Wellington after leaving their apartment buildings and there were reports of minor damage.

Those on east coast of South Island told to move to higher ground NZ emergency lines (111) have been knocked out by the quake in some places A MASSIVE earthquake has struck 20km south-east of New Zealand's Hamner Springs, according to NZ monitoring service GeoNet, prompting a tsunami warning for the South Island. It described the quake, felt through much of the country, as "very large". The quake struck at 12.02am Monday local time and is officially rated as "severe". NZ Herald is reporting the quake was a magnitude 6.6, although ABC News reports it has since been upgraded to a 7.9. Civil Defence has issued a tsumani warning for the eastern coast of the South Island and says anyone near the coast should move to high ground.

In Wellington, sirens can be heard and people are on the street crying. New Zealand Civil Defence just tweeted that it is "assessing [the] situation with assistance of scientific advisors and civil defence groups". There are reports that houses in Cheviot, near where the quake was centred in Canterbury, are badly affected by the shake.

Police advise that all Emergency 111 lines are currently non-operational as a result of the quake. They advise all calls for police service should be made to the local police station which will then forwarded to a police communication centre for actioning. At this time police are unable to advise when normal services will resume. ADVICE TO PEOPLE IN AFFECTED AREAS: Report serious injury or fires to the emergency services (dial 111). It could take some time for emergency services to determine priorities and respond accordingly. You may be on your own for some time. If you are in an affected area: Expect aftershocks - DROP, COVER, HOLD If you live near the coast and you feel a shake over a minute, or you have trouble standing up, move away from the coast. LONG OR STRONG BE GONE. Look after yourself, get first aid if necessary; help others if you can Check your home or workplace for damage; if the building appears unsafe, get everyone out (use the stairs, not an elevator) Be prepared for power failures Listen to the radio for updated emergency information and instructions.

Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. There are no immediate reports of damage from the latest quake.

The Herald newspaper said the tremor was felt all the way to Wellington, where sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat. A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 169km (105 miles) north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113125500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="msn-uk-6ab2240d88f47949251a0eb84d14e29a" duplicate="standard-172ecbe75369d1245544ee76b555a650"><title>New Zealand earthquake: Powerful tremor shakes South Island Evening Standard</title><link>http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/other/new-zealand-earthquake-powerful-tremor-shakes-south-island/ar-AAkeBsS</link><description>© Provided by Evening Standard Limited.

Mr Key did not provide any further details at a news conference on Monday morning in the capital Wellington.

Authorities said they were not yet declaring a national emergency, saying the regions are coping well. The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight 132 miles south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves.

Authorities later downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following the quake. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50am and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country's east coast to move to higher ground.

It described the quake, felt through much of the country, as "very large". The quake struck at 12.02am Monday local time and is officially rated as "severe".

Civil Defence has issued a tsumani warning for the eastern coast of the South Island and says anyone near the coast should move to high ground.

In Wellington, sirens can be heard and people are on the street crying. New Zealand Civil Defence just tweeted that it is "assessing [the] situation with assistance of scientific advisors and civil defence groups". There are reports that houses in Cheviot, near where the quake was centred in Canterbury, are badly affected by the shake. Police advise that all Emergency 111 lines are currently non-operational as a result of the quake. They advise all calls for police service should be made to the local police station which will then forwarded to a police communication centre for actioning. At this time police are unable to advise when normal services will resume.

Report serious injury or fires to the emergency services (dial 111). It could take some time for emergency services to determine priorities and respond accordingly. You may be on your own for some time. If you are in an affected area: Expect aftershocks - DROP, COVER, HOLD If you live near the coast and you feel a shake over a minute, or you have trouble standing up, move away from the coast. LONG OR STRONG BE GONE. Look after yourself, get first aid if necessary; help others if you can Check your home or workplace for damage; if the building appears unsafe, get everyone out (use the stairs, not an elevator) Be prepared for power failures Listen to the radio for updated emergency information and instructions.

Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. The Herald newspaper said the tremor was felt all the way to Wellington, where sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. Early reports suggest some houses in Cheviot town, near the epicentre, have been damaged. A resident of Christchurch said the tremor lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP news agency. A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 169km (105 miles) north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning.

Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. There are no immediate reports of damage from the latest quake. The Herald newspaper said the tremor was felt all the way to Wellington, where sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no tsunami threat. A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 169km (105 miles) north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113150300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="belfasttelegraph-c9426e214e7e54b4d83c3ee0d2b41a3a" duplicate="metro-uk-b5447035959fd8c504cf12e6b1b8a96b"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after earthquake near Christchurch A powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami in New Zealand, with the first waves hitting the South Island, government officials have said.</title><link>http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/world-news/tsunami-hits-new-zealand-after-earthquake-near-christchurch-35211279.html</link><description>A powerful earthquake has generated a tsunami in New Zealand, with the first waves hitting the South Island, government officials have said.

Air Commodore (AIRCDRE) Darryn Webb, the Acting Commander Joint Forces New Zealand, said an NH90 medium utility helicopter from the Royal New Zealand Air Force’s (RNZAF) 3 Squadron took off from Ohakea at 5.30am to support the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management. AIRCDRE Webb said an RNZAF P-3K2 Orion surveillance aircraft from 5 Squadron left Whenuapai at 7.20am to survey main transport routes and towns from Picton to Christchurch. Another NH90 helicopter and other aircraft have been placed on standby for other tasks, including conducting an aerial survey of areas in the Kaikoura region which reportedly suffered the brunt of the earthquake. NZDF personnel from Burnham Military Camp and RNZAF Base Woodbourne have also been mobilised to support the Christchurch civil defence authorities. "The Chief of Defence Force, Lieutenant General Tim Keating, has directed that we remain ready to respond should the situation require further support," AIRCDRE Webb said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113235500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="trust-54815c4ada51a30c7ff939ce6310b9af"><title>Local residents Chris and Viv Young look at damage caused by an earthquake, along State Highway One near the town of Ward, New Zealand</title><link>http://news.trust.org/item/20161113235523-bt0j5/?source=spotnewsfeed</link><description>Local residents Chris and Viv Young look at damage caused by an earthquake, along State Highway One near the town of Ward, south of Blenheim on New Zealand's South Island, November 14, 2016.

Christchurch, on the South Island's eastern coast, has a population of more than 340,000 people, the most recent census shows. remember to drop, cover and hold in any quakes - aftershocks will continue. stay safe.

Powerful aftershocks. 13 November 2016 Images on social media showed shattered windows, toppled grocery items on the floor of a supermarket and water sloshing back and forth in swimming pools from different parts of the country.

"This is the strongest [earthquake] I've ever felt," Tamara Hunt told CNN. She was with her husband at their home in Whanganui when the earthquake struck.

"It started off so small, like the cat moving in the bed, but then it started building and I had to run to the door. Stuff in the house was falling over and the doors were swaying really bad," she said. "Then we decided to get out, and that's when we saw our pool had lost a lot of water. The earthquake went on for two minutes."

The South Island has been hit by a flurry of aftershocks, according to the USGS and New Zealand's Geonet service, some with a magnitude above 6.0. Officials from the island's second-largest town, Dunedin, called a state of emergency there.

The USGS initially reported the quake's magnitude at 7.4 at a depth of just 10 kilometers -- shallow enough to cause serious destruction to the immediate surrounding area. It later revised the quake strength to 7.8, but changed its depth to 23 kilometers (14.2 miles) , giving more of a buffer between the epicenter and the Earth's surface.

&amp;lt;blockquoteclass="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en-gb"&gt; The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours.

Prime Minister John Key has said two people were killed. Police said one of the victims was found in a house in the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura, near the quake’s epicentre. The region that bore the brunt of the 7.8 magnitude tremor was north of Christchurch on the South Island, where there were reports of injuries and collapsed buildings. It generated a tsunami: the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the entire east coast, warning people to move to higher ground. At a specially-convened news conference the prime minister said: “We now know that those around the country that tsunami risk has been downgraded to coastal warnings. But we also urge people to continue to be cautious”. John Key added that a military helicopter was being dispatched to Kaikoura. Social media saw many appeals for news of people in the town. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Officials in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, evacuated residents. In Wellington glass fell from buildings into the streets, and hotels and apartment buildings were evacuated. The city council reported structural damage to several buildings.

Brown said there had been few reports of building damage in Palmerston North overnight. However,Bunnythorpe lost power between 12am-6am. There were also power outages reported in Tokomaru, Newbury, Aokautere, Linton, Rangiotu, Pahiatua, Ballance, Feilding and Cheltenham. KiwiRail has also cancelled all trains south of Palmerston North, including the morning Capital Connection commuter service. KiwiRail has not yet responded to requests for information about the cancellation. The quake struck just after midnight and was widely felt in both the South and North Islands, as far north as Auckland, causing damage and knocking out power as well as triggering tsunami alerts. It was centred near Culverden, North Canterbury.

A tsunami warning and evacuation for Herbertville and Akitio has been reduced to a marine and beach threat. School NCEA exams are going a head as normal, however New Zealand scholarship exams have been cancelled, NZQA's website states. The scholarship examinations have been postponed at all schools and exam centres. Flights and operations are running as normal at Palmerston North airport, Airways New Zealand's head of public affairs, Emily Davies said. "All services are running as normal." An Air New Zealand spokesperson said there were no delays and flights were running "hunky dory" from Palmerston North. A Jetstar spokesperson said there were no earthquake related issues with its service. Palmerston North City Council emergency management officer Jock Robinson said the Fitzherbert Bridge had been checked and was safe. There were some minor power outages but no major issues in the city. The sewage treatment plant is working, while staff are still checking the Turitea dam and the water treatment plant. Property staff are working their way around council buildings, but there are no indications of damage. Palmerston North mayor Grant Smith has offered assistance to the Wellington City Council and three Palmerston North structural engineers might go down later today or tomorrow.​</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113224300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="xinhuanet_en-df513fe990382961773e281a8a3f05cc"><title>Possible tsunami in New Zealand not to cause disastrous effects along China's coast: SOA</title><link>http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2016-11/13/c_135826253.htm</link><description>BEIJING, Nov. 13 (Xinhua) -- Possible tsunami following a 7.8-magnitude earthquake in South Island of New Zealand will not cause disastrous effects along China's coast, said the State Oceanic Administration (SOA) on Sunday night.

Geonet described the quake, felt through much of the country, as “very large”. The quake struck at 12.02am Monday and is officially rated as “severe”. Many people from as far afield as Wellington to Dunedin felt the quake. In Wellington, sirens can be heard and people are on the street crying. New Zealand Civil Defence just tweeted that it is “assessing [the] situation with assistance of scientific advisors and civil defence groups”. There are reports that houses in Cheviot, near where the quake was centred in Canterbury, are badly affected by the shake. Police advise that all Emergency 111 lines are currently non-operational as a result of the quake. They advise all calls for police service should be made to the local police station which will then forwarded to a police communication centre for actioning. At this time police are unable to advise when normal services will resume.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113165800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="thejournal-022f760969a6e61876b8e68dfabcedf5"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after powerful earthquake</title><link>http://www.thejournal.ie/earthquake-2-3079676-Nov2016/</link><description>Updated at 1.19pm.

Earthquakes Tsunamis A TSUNAMI HAS hit the South Island of New Zealand following a powerful 7.8 magnitude earthquake close to the the city of Christchurch. The department of civil defence warned people all along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. The shallow tremor hit some 90 kilometres (57 miles) north of the South Island city of Christchurch which was devastated five years ago by a 6.3 tremor which killed 185 people in one of New Zealand’s deadliest disasters. The quake, initially put at 7.4 but later upgraded, struck just after midnight on Sunday night (12.02 pm Sunday Irish time). It was only 10 kilometres deep and felt throughout most of the country. The main tremor was followed by a series of strong aftershocks and there were reports of damaged buildings in the small rural township of Cheviot near the epicentre. “It was massive and really long,” Tamsin Edensor, a mother of two in Christchurch, told AFP, describing the powerful quake as the biggest since the deadly 2011 tremor.

In a brief message the Prime Minister John Key tweeted: “I hope everyone is safe after the earthquake tonight.” The ambulance service said it did not receive any reports of quake-related injuries. However, the national civil defence organisation, which is in charge of New Zealand’s emergency management said a tsunami was possible. “The first wave activity may not be the most significant,” it said in a bulletin, adding tsunami activity would continue for several hours. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist with the GNS Science, said the government’s earthquake monitoring service, the quakes were close to the coast.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113150800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="irishmirror-a71b6d50bf42e746aa1c1cb58316711a"><title>Families warned to flee New Zealand coast 'immediately' over tsunami sparked by 7.8-magnitude earthquake</title><link>http://www.irishmirror.ie/news/powerful-earthquake-hits-christchurch-new-9251440</link><description>Nick Kingstone posted this picture of the aftermath of the Earthquake in Wellington where shop fronts shattered and debris fell from buildings.

Today's earthquake measured more powerfully on the Richter scale than 2011's 6.3 quake. Power lines and phone lines are said to be down, including emergency lines to police, fire and ambulance services. Others reported that the emergency number 111 was back up and running. Anthropology student Heather McMillan said her home shook “like jelly” when the earthquake struck as she was getting ready for bed, and she feared it was going to collapse. The quake hit 57 miles north east of the city, which is on the east coast of the country's South Island. The 20-year-old told Mirror Online: “When it started it was really big so I thought it was going to be short but it kept going for a good few minutes and felt like the second floor was going to fall down. “Very quickly you realise it's an earthquake because I’ve felt one before. “But this was a different level. I honestly thought it was going to last for 20 minutes or longer. “I live in the second storey of a flat and it was like a rolling feeling from the house. The aftershocks have felt like we're a ship at sea. ”She said the tremor lasted around five minutes but it felt like forever". Wine from supermarket shelves tossed to the floor smashed, leaving red wine and broken glass in large puddles. She added: “I think it's one of those moments when you start thinking whether this is it? Like the big earthquake that's going to put Christchurch back into the place it was five years ago?” Heather said her flat did not suffer any damage, but her parents in Wellington were without power and had some belongings damaged as the earthquake shook their home. Patsy Knight told Mirror Online that aftershocks were still continuing 20 minutes after the quake. She said: "We're in Wellington and absolutely terrifying. Smashed glass everywhere, but thankfully all good. Not much sleep happening though, kids with us.

Canterbury earthquake after falling air-conditioning equipment cut services at the national call centre. Spark's Wellington office, which answers and redirects emergency calls, was damaged and evacuated immediately after the earthquake. Before leaving the building, staff thought they had correctly re-routed 111 calls to each of the emergency services, which was normal procedure during a natural disaster. However, they were impeded by falling ceiling tiles and airconditioning equipment which landed on the very desk being used to make the switch, Spark spokesman Richard Llewellyn said. "While staff believed they had completed the procedure, it became apparent after they had urgently left the building that the procedure had not worked properly." READ MORE: Earthquake: Deaths, major damage after severe 7.5 quake hits Hanmer Springs, tsunami warning issued It was not until staff tested the system once outside the building that they realised it had not worked. At that point, a remote switchover was made in Hamilton, restoring the service, but not before 111 calls from across New Zealand went unanswered for 30 minutes. Llewellyn said Spark was concerned about any distress experienced while the system was unavailable. The 111 service was now functioning normally, but communication in and out of some communities in Kaikoura and North Canterbury was still severely affected by the earthquake. Spark was sending engineers into those areas to restore the 111 service. Meanwhile, to help people stay in touch, Spark is offering its wifi network to use on Monday for free without restrictions on data.

People can find their nearest wifi zone through the Spark website and choose to join the network. Vodafone, Spark and 2degrees are still working to restore services affected by Monday morning's earthquake. Two people have been confirmed dead after a severe 7.5 earthquake hit North Canterbury. Spark was urging people to text, rather than call, friends and family to ease network congestion. Spark customers in or near Kaikoura and Blenheim may have limited or no access to mobile, landline or broadband services due to issues with power and damage to infrastructure. Engineers are investigating network problems in Clarence, Kaikoura, Weld Cone, Waiau and Eltham. Spark stores in Wellington CBD Queensgate, Moorhouse Avenue Christchurch and Blenheim are closed. Stores in Wanganui, Kapiti, Nelson and West Coast are being inspected, but may open later. Call centres are running on reduced staff. Vodafone reported earlier in the morning that cell sites in Wellington and Christchurch have been affected by power cuts and back-up generators have arrived or were on their way. By midday, a small number of sites affected by power outages were running using back-up battery or generator power. Technicians and a back-up generator have been airlifted to a priority cell site in Kaikoura and two other cell sites have also been connected to back-up generators. There were no estimates on when power would be restored. There has also been a break in the fibre that served the area, located at a major slip. Repair work will begin on that as soon as it was safe to do so. Stores in Lambton Quay, Cuba St, Queensgate, Porirua, Paraparaumu, Nelson and Blenheim currently remain closed. The Riccarton stores in Christchurch have been cleared to open.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114024400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="heart-dc5f63e70980a77bcab83a9dacfc5628"><title>Tsunami hits after multiple strong New Zealand quakes</title><link>http://www.heart.co.uk/news/uk-world/powerful-earthquake-strikes-near-christchurch/</link><description>A tsunami has hit New Zealand's South Island after a series of powerful earthquakes struck across the centre of the country.

New Zealand's civil defence warned people to move to higher ground as the tsunami threat may last for several hours. The country's Geonet service says the majority of the quakes were on land. The largest quake was 7.8 magnitude and hit just midnight local time, according to the United States Geological Survey.

It hit 57 miles (91km) from Christchurch, which was badly damaged by one that measured 6.3 in 2011. The initial tremor was followed by several aftershocks, further north and also inland - including several above magnitude 6. Sirens sounded in Christchurch and other towns and cities on the coast as authorities told people to leave their homes and seek safety. Strong jolts were reported in the capital, Wellington, where at least several tweeters posted pictures of damage to their homes and other buildings. There are reports that waves of up to 1.5 metres may have hit the Kaikoura area and smallers waves hit Castlepoint and Wellington. The civil defence tweeted: "A tsunami has been generated, the first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island." It added: "The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours. "If you are in a low lying area on the East Coast of the North, South or Chatham Islands move immediately to higher ground." Earlier, the US Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre had said there was no risk of a tsunami from the first quake. There were reports of traffic jams as people attempted to flee low lying coastal areas. Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information for the country, listed dozens of quakes between 6.6 and 3.8 after 12.02am local time. Hugh Sintes, who lives in Christchurch, told Sky News: "My wife had gone off to the batthroom, I had just lain down on my bed and all of all of a sudden the bed started wobbling and it got more and more intense. "And I thought 'OK this is getting a bit serious'. It continued on and on - it got quite concerning." The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of six miles (10km). Shallow tremors are said to be felt more strongly on the surface. Witnesses in Christchurch have told Sky News that the tremors lasted for a longer time that previous quakes but were less intense. But others further north described strong shaking, with some calling the feeling "weird". One Tweeter, Rick Kiesseg, posted: "Primary New Zealand #earthquake lasted about a minute. Long, long, long shake and roll. About 17 aftershocks so far, biggest mag 6.1" The February 2011 tremor was just a few miles outside of New Zealand's third biggest town and caused widespread damage and left 185 people dead.

Unsure of what to do next, and with the tremor still going, I slipped back into bed. I imagined myself being pulled out of the rubble in the morning by figures in dusty body suits and hard hats. After the first quake ended, I tiptoed across the floor in the new knowledge that nothing was as solid as it seemed, and poked my head out into the corridor.

Other heads were poking out, too. One of them, at the far end, was accompanied by a hand, waving gently at me as if to say: "Hey, we're alive, isn't that funny?" I smiled and returned the wave. Another door creaked open and a hulking man with a shaved head emerged, walking down the corridor, my way. I waited, eager for more of an exchange than silent hand gestures.

I swept my laptop and charger off the desk, then dragged it away from the outer wall of the hotel, positioning it so it wasn't too close to the TV on the other side. I pushed the chair away for unobstructed access and practised crouching under the desk, holding on to its edges. I tried another position: one hand on an edge and one clutching a table leg. An hour and a half after the first tremor, I was feeling pretty self-assured. Then the tsunami warning was sent around. I didn't sleep for another two hours.

Councils are allowing sheep and beef to enter rivers for water, the spokeswoman said. Fonterra confirmed all of its staff in New Zealand were safe and there was no major damage to any of its manufacturing sites. Fonterra's Farm Source chief operating officer, Miles Hurrell, said some farms without power, or those that could be reached by tanker due to road closures, might need to dispose of their milk. Mr Hurrell confirmed that Fonterra will contact farmers directly if disposal is required. Dozens of dairy farms across the North Canterbury region will have to dump their milk into effluent systems or find other ways to deal with it because it cannot be picked up. Federated Farmers adverse events spokeswoman Katie Milne said it depended on what infrastructure farmers had. If it went into effluent ponds it would end up being used as fertiliser. Earlier a Fonterra spokeswoman said 12 farms could not milk their herds so far due to the earthquake forcing rotary systems to jump off their rollers in the Kaikoura and Culverden region. However unlike some years, there were no tankers waiting to cross Cook Strait with milk to be processed in the South Island.

Milne said farmers were helping each other out by sharing facilities. She said in a lot of cases dairy farmers carried insurance for such an event. Some farmers were thrown off their feet near the epicentre of the 7.5 earthquake in the early hours of the morning. They were counting the toll at first light and reports near Waiau township have come in of milking sheds worth thousands of dollars being out of operation, toppled fuel tanks and ground ripping from the quake. The main Waiau bridge is understood to have damage at both ends of it, with limited to no access into the township. Farmers needing bridge access to get off their properties are stranded where there is damage to bridge structures. During the worst of the shaking farmers told of freezers toppling and stoves and radiators being ripped out. They were unable to stand up during the quake's peak. Farmers were calling each other to provide reassurance and offer assistance. Power outages have farmers relying on gas barbecues for cooking and could cause water problems if pumps were out. After the 2010 Christchurch quake 160 grain silos needed to be repaired or replaced. Milne said dry stock farmers would not be so immediately affected. If they had stock due to go to meat processing works, they would have to put them back onto paddocks. There had been concerns about some side creeks being blocked, leading to flash floods, which had occurred in past quakes. Milne advised people to treat every wire as a live one and to touch base with their neighbours. The best thing the Government could do was to restore infrastructure. The Waiau Bridge was down; if people had power and communications they were in a much better position. Federated Farmers is updating its Facebook page with "verifiable data", Milne said. Milne, who runs a dairy farm in Buller, just three kilometres from the Alpine Fault, said she had not only felt the main quake strongly, but also the aftershocks. "It was a reminder to me what it would be like if we had a quake along the fault." Federated Farmers North Canterbury dairy chairman Michael Woodward said he was getting reports from other farmers of damage to their farms. The area south of Culverden had some minor damage and apart from the power being out on many properties, most farmers were fine, he said. "Otherwise from Culverden north, up to Kaikoura, there's reports of [rotary] sheds been knocked off their pedestals and one or two staff houses knocked over." Woodward said the biggest issue for North Canterbury farms was the lack of power in affected areas and inaccessibility due to road damage. This made it impossible to provide support for affected farmers and further understand the situation. Restoring access and restoring power was the immediate priority. "The hard part is getting power so those cows can be milked and also getting stock water to those cows. It's those little things that start adding up after a day or two." Woodward, who farms at Leeston, described the earthquake as " a rolling sensation", that went on for about a minute and a half compared to the violent shake in 2010. "We milked as normal this morning. It still woke us up and it puts the willies up you. We dodged a bullet and were pretty lucky." "There are some farmers there [in North Canterbury] that are going to have to have milk that is put down the drain because there is nobody that can collect it." If the lack of shed power continued over the next day or two, it would affect the farmer's milk production for the season, he said. "If you can't milk your cows they will dry themselves off so you probably have one or two days of not milking before you have jeopardised the rest of your season." However, Woodward knew of farmers that were sharing their sheds or generators with farmers without power so they could get their cows milked. That provided a logistical challenge with most herds in the region carrying over 600 cows. Those cows had to be walked, fed and milked in those sheds. Fortunately there was enough feed around for those farms to temporarily carry that extra capacity, he said. "We have already had people ring up and say they can carry extra cows off some of those farmers and we're already getting great community support as it's going to be a long road to get those guys back to normailty." New Zealand dairy farms had just come off their production peak and many were about to be mated and the road damage meant AI technicians would not be able to get onto farms. That could potentially have a flow-on effect into next season if cows could not get pregnant at the right time, Woodward said. A Synlait spokesman said the factory at Dunsandel was undamaged and no staff were injured. It was too early to know if the earthquake had affected milk collections among its suppliers. Ravensdown communications advisor Penny Clark-Hall, whose partner has a sheep and beef property inland from Culverden, said it was "pretty intense" when the quake hit although the house survived without any noticeable damage. Her parents, who farm further north, suffered more. "All their farms sheds have collapsed, the water pipes into the house burst and there is water everywhere. The power is down but fortunately they have got a generator." She said although the Waiau bridge was closed for vehicles, it was possible to walk across it.

Mr Bridges, who is also Minister of Transport and Minister of Energy Resources, flew down to Wellington as planned first thing this morning and spoke to the Bay of Plenty Times from his office at Parliament. Mr Bridges said the streets were eerily quiet and there were hardly any cars on the way to work. ''Now I'm in the Beehive and we're all walking the stairs because the lifts aren't working. There's some significant cracking," he said. Mr Bridges said his office, which had a lot of model planes in it, was a mess.

"A lot of the model planes are broken. There is a lot of stuff on the floor and the shelving with all the books are all askew. There's some reasonably big cracks toward the edges of the building but if we are going to be anywhere in Wellington, this is a very safe building to be in." Mr Bridges said he was preparing to meet with the NZ Transport Agency and KiwiRail to discuss the next steps in managing the transport infrastructure following the earthquake. ''We need to assess the damage so we can create plans to deal with that but the difficulty is the aftershocks. We have to be very safe and ensure people out there trying to help are safe also." Mr Bridges said the phone network appeared to be congested because he had difficulty getting through to people but he urged people to stay safe and look after each other.

Scenario 1 (Very likely): a normal aftershock sequence over the next few months. This means gradually diminishing size and frequency of seismic events. Scenario 2 (Likely): Possible rupture earthquake of magnitude 6 in North Canterbury and/or offshore. Scenario 3 (Unlikely): Another large earthquake above magnitude 7 within a month in the Marlborough and Cook Strait regions. GeoNet measured the quake at a magnitude of 7.5, although the United States Geological Survey said it was of a 7.8 magnitude and Geoscience Australia said the event was of a 7.9 magnitude. "There are a number of ways we can look at an earthquake," Mr Jaksa said. He said GeoNet relied on measuring close readings, which can "saturate" the measurement devices causing what he called "clipping".

The first measurements from an earthquake are the "p-waves", which are compression waves travelling through the earth, much like sound waves. Mr Jaksa said these dispersion waves allow detection of a quake's location and an initial estimate of its size. Following the "p-waves" seismologists measure "s-waves", which are slower moving shear waves travelling perpendicular to the direction of the p-waves. Seismologists then measure even slower surface waves that shake the crust in rolling waves allowing a better understanding of the event.

Mr Jaksa said GeoNet relied on more localised measurements, whereas Geoscience Australia incorporated more longer-period waves. USGS uses a similar method, explaining why the US and Australian agencies have issued similar magnitudes for the event. He said the NZ measurement was more like the older Richter scale, which measured amplitudes of seismic waves. The current scales incorporate measurements of earth movement. Ms Little said that GeoNet's use of local stations gave it a better ability to locate the epicentre and determine whether it was one or two seismic events. "We're pretty confident it was two," she said.

"However, this doesn't account for the amount of energy released. The event overnight released 50 times the amount of energy than the 6.1 magnitude Christchurch quake did in 2011." That quake was just five kilometres underground and 10 kilometres from the city centre. It killed 185 people. Mr Jaksa said: "This is the most active seismic site on earth. It stretches from the Solomon Islands through Vanuatu and down to New Zealand. "The Pacific Plate is going under the Australian Plate along this area. The Pacific Plate is moving 11 centimetres a year in a west-north-west direction. The Australian Plate is moving north-east at about seven centimetres a year," he said.​ However, along the South Island things get complicated.

The earthquake has also cast doubt over the Blackcaps' opening Test against Pakistan at Hagley Oval in Christchurch, with the city reportedly sustaining damage from the quake. However, no announcement has yet been made by New Zealand Cricket. Hagley Oval became Christchurch's home of cricket after AMI Stadium at Lancaster Park closed indefinitely due to severe damage it sustained after the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. Newshub.

People who have suffered damage to their home, land or contents from today’s earthquakes have three months to lodge their claim with the Earthquake Commission (EQC). "People’s first priority will be to make sure their loved ones are safe and out of harm’s way. If people need to take urgent action to make their home safe, secure, weather-tight and sanitary, they should also record any remedial work done and take photographs. Commercial property owners should contact their brokers. Insurance Council Chief Executive Tim Grafton says "taking photographic evidence of the flooding and damage to your property will help with your claims assessment and if you need to move damaged or contaminated goods from your house for health and safety reasons". Tips for recovery: - Contact your insurer, or insurance adviser. - Act safely to prevent more damage to your property. - Try to make the buildings safe and weatherproof. - Take pictures of the damage (buildings and contents) for insurance claims. - Keep all damaged items for inspection. - Get essential services repaired e.g. water, electricity, gas, sewerage - keep copies of your bills. - Make a list and take pictures of any perishables you have to dispose of. - Don’t start non-essential repairs without your insurance company’s approval. The extent of the insured damage will not be known for some weeks.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113225500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="straitstimesSG-6407323321604978a13f3c3486458f16" duplicate="reuters-8f199b1c573d1ef44ca22064f4b9a202"><title>New quake measuring 6.2 strikes off New Zealand's south island</title><link>http://www.straitstimes.com/asia/australianz/new-quake-measuring-68-strikes-off-new-zealands-south-island</link><description>A strong new earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 struck New Zealand’s South Island on Monday (Nov 14), the US Geological Survey (USGS) said, hours after a more powerful quake killed two people and damaged buildings along the east coast of the South Island.

WELLINGTON (REUTERS) - A strong new earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 struck New Zealand’s South Island on Monday (Nov 14), the US Geological Survey (USGS) said, hours after a more powerful quake killed two people and damaged buildings along the east coast of the South Island. The latest quake was initially measured with a magnitude of 6.8. It struck at about 1.45pm local time (8.45am Singapore time) at a depth of 10km, about 120km north-east of Christchurch, the USGS said.

could hardly stand up - it was that bad", she said. Kelvin Lim from Hataitai pharmacy had his alarm go off at home to say something wasn't right at his pharmacy. The CCTV footage revealed a lot of things had fallen off the shelves so he's in work assessing the damage. HANMER SPRINGS AND AROUND. A slip has closed the main road to Hanmer Springs village, near where the magnitude 6.6 earthqUake was centred. The NZ Transport Agency said the slip was blocking both lanes on State Highway 7A, on the eastern side of the Waiau Ferry Bridge. Road users are advised to take extra care. Southern fire communications shift manager Tim Reynolds said there were reports of"minor" damage coming from the Cheviot area. "They are just staring to come through now. We are getting multiple reports of damage, but nothing specific as yet," he said. "Mainly things to do with roading and bridges." CHRISTCHURCH. Residents in Christchurch coastal suburbs are evacuating and moving to higher ground. Hotels and occupied buildings in the CBD have been evacuated. Many people are standing around in the middle of the street, away from buildings, calling people to let them know they're fine. Some people are venturing back inside, because nobody seems to be enforcing the evacuations. People around city centre have been let back in to hotels. Couples were seen hugging and calling relatives, grabbing towels for blankets. Part of the Heritage Christchurch building on Worcester St was heard crumbling by a nearby road-worker. Christchurch student April Clarke said she was unable to get hold of friends in Waiau, close to the quake's epicentre. "There are six people in Waiau nobody can get hold of." Despite calling and messaging, nobody could get hold of them, she said. Power and phone lines were believed to be out for the small town, only a few kilometres east of earthquake's epicentre. WAIKATO. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it.

"Our cockatiel fell off his perch. The aftershocks just keep coming. Three of us are huddling under the kitchen table in our dressing gowns with a trembling bird in between." Power and phones were out in Waikanae on the Kapiti Coast. NELSON AND MARLBOROUGH. Network Tasman chief executive Oliver Kearney said that Murchison, Pohara, parts of Stoke and Hira had lost power. "Obviously we are working toward restoration of those areas. It was quite a shake." It was too early to say when power might be restored. Nelson resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". The former Christchurch resident said it was a much longer, more rolling motion than the 2010 Canterbury quake. Davis, who lives in the central city suburb of The Wood, said she was surprised there appeared to be no damage to the house. "It really shook for a long time." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake. There is some damage in central Blenheim, with shop windows broken. Blenheim Volunteer Fire Station is cordoned off, and firefighters are on high alert. Some families have packed their emergency kits in their cars in preparation to leave. Blenheim Countdown store manager Liz Nelson said the earthquake had knocked a lot of stock off the shelves. The night fill and pricing teams that were in the store at the time were all okay, and had gathered outside the building following the earthquake. "There's a bit of damage on the back wall, cracks in the plaster, but mostly it's stock on the floor," she said. There were unconfirmed reports of looting. A police officer that stopped at the Countdown told staff about potential looting at a nearby chemist. Blenheim resident Gemma Adams said she was lying in bed when she started to feel the bed swaying. The length of the earthquake made it terrifying, Adams said. "We were lying there going, 'what do we do, what do we do'." Adams and her partner ran to the kitchen and got under the table. After the initial shake, people on her street were outside checking on neighbours, she said. Marlborough Civil Defence operations manager Richard McNamara said police were checking Marlborough neighbourhoods to take stock of damage and offer assistance. There had been two call outs to St.John but no reports of injury in Marlborough due to the quake as yet. WAIKATO. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it. Hataitai resident and reporter Rachel Thomas said her flatmates woke up to their weatherboard house groaning. "Our cockatiel fell off his perch. The aftershocks just keep coming. Three of us are huddling under the kitchen table in our dressing gowns with a trembling bird in between." Power and phones were out in Waikanae on the Kapiti Coast. TARANAKI. Thousands of people are without electricity in New Plymouth, Stratford, Eltham and Hawera. Some powerlines are down and power may not be restored until the morning in some areas. Many residents have taken to Facebook to say they were woken and scared by the quake and that aftershocks are still being felt. St John Ambulance says they have no reports of injuries from the quake. "We are monitoring the situation but at this stage we have not activated our emergency operations centre (EOC)", they said. "We encourage everyone to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail." "It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready." A resident in the seaside Nelson suburb of Tahunanui said the power had been cut after the quake.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113135300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="news-yahoo-66def1e1ede6631b6b739700a717addc"><title>Gamer is unexpectedly stoked about being in the middle of an earthquake</title><link>https://www.yahoo.com/news/gamer-unexpectedly-stoked-being-middle-011809480.html?ref=gs</link><description>Parts of New Zealand's South Island has been hit hard by earthquakes on Monday, forcing residents in coastal areas to flee from tsunami waves.

Just had a 6.6 Magnitude Earthquake here! All caught on VIDEO! Cannot believe it happened in the middle of my video! — Omega ⚖ (@TheeOmega_) November 13, 2016 Monday's earthquake was centred in a rural area 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch. It hit residents in that city, as well as Wellington, the Chatham Islands, as well in other coastal areas along the east of the country.

New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned of the risk of destructive waves along the country’s entire east coast and urged residents in low-lying areas to evacuate and seek higher ground. Waves of up to two meters (6 feet) could be possible for up to two hours, it said. Anna Kaiser, a seismologist at GNS Science said a tidal signal or surge of up to one meter (3 feet) had been recorded in North Canterbury region of the South Island. “That’s reasonably significant so people should take this seriously,” she told Radio New Zealand. New Zealand’s Geonet revised up its estimated magnitude of the quake to 7.5, from 6.6 earlier. USGS said the quake was centered 91 km (57 miles) north-northeast of Christchurch, the biggest city on New Zealand’s South Island. A 6.3 quake there in February 2011 killed 185 people and caused widespread damage. The tremor was felt throughout most of New Zealand. Some injuries had been reported but there no immediate reports of deaths. “The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out,” a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island.

damage in the quake, the Marlborough Emergency Management Group said in a statement. Sewage and water supplies were knocked out, though power was gradually being restored Monday afternoon. Police were in radio communication with the town and mobile phone service was expected to be restored shortly. The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand’s emergency call number, 111, police reported. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. Australians Paul and Sandra Wardrop and their children Alexander, 15, and William, 12, were on the 10th floor of the Park Hotel when the shaking began. ȁ#x201c;We felt that the building was going to collapse,ȁ#x201d; Sandra Wardrop said. ȁ#x201c;You could hear the sounds of the building shaking and see cracks appearing in the walls, in the plasterwork in the bedroom.ȁ#x201d;

The family was among dozens of people who took shelter in the capital’s parliamentary complex, which threw open its doors. It was William’s 12th birthday, and while he didn’t get to tour Wellington as planned, he did get to meet Key, who visited the displaced tourists. New Zealand, with a population of 4.7 million, sits on the ȁ#x201c;Ring of Fire,ȁ#x201d; an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. Monday’s quake brought back memories of the magnitude 6.3 earthquake that struck Christchurch in 2011 and destroyed much of the downtown area. That quake was one of New Zealand’s worst disasters, causing an estimated $25 billion in damage. Monday’s quake was stronger but its epicentre was deeper and much farther from major urban areas. Location, depth and other factors beyond magnitude all contribute to the destructive power of an earthquake. Authorities in Wellington were urging people who work in the city’s central business district to stay home on Monday. Officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress, and the quake would likely have caused a mess in some buildings. The city’s suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. New Zealand’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50 a.m. and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. There was confusion about the tsunami threat throughout the morning. The ministry initially said there was no threat but later wrote on Twitter ȁ#x201c;situation has changed — tsunami is possibleȁ#x201d; before reporting that a tsunami had hit. The quake was centred 93 kilometres northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The USGS initially estimated it had a magnitude of 7.4 before revising it to 7.8. It said the quake struck at a depth of 23 kilometres, after initially putting the depth at 10 kilometres. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114041600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="geo-tv-34d46d981e46d99b888d887a90065138"><title>Pakistan cricket teams evacuated from hotel following powerful NZ earthquake November 13, 2016 Updated @ : 17:17 pst Pakistan's men cricket team was preparing to sleep when powerful tremors forced...</title><link>https://www.geo.tv/latest/120492-Pakistan-cricket-teams-evacuated-from-hotel-following-powerful-NZ-earthquake</link><description>Pakistan cricket teams evacuated from hotel following powerful NZ earthquake.

KARACHI: Players of Pakistan's men and women cricket teams were evacuated from their hotel rooms in Nelson and Christchurch respectively after an earthquake measuring 7.4 jolted various cities of New Zealand on Sunday. Pakistan's men cricket team was preparing to sleep when powerful tremors forced them to move out of hotel rooms in Nelson. "We were at the 7th floor of hotel, as soon tremors were felt we took emergency staircase to evacuate from hotel," said one team member who wished not to be named. "We all are safe and currently having a walk, and we are still feeling the aftershocks," said the player while speaking to Geo News 20 minutes after the earthquake. Players of Pakistan women team were equally panicked due to the earthquake and were evacuated from the rooms in Christchurch. "It was horrible, the building was shaking badly," said a player of women team on condition of anonymity. "We were on 13th floor, and were evacuated after the tremors, we are still observing some aftershocks," she said. Pakistan's men Cricket team was scheduled to fly for Christchurch from Nelson on Monday, but following the earthquake team's travel plan looks uncertain at the moment. Meanwhile, Basit Ali of head coach of Pakistan women Cricket team told Geo News that some players were scared after the tremors. "It was so horrible and players were scared, we immediately moved out of hotel, players were without slippers even," Basit Ali told Geo. "Thanks to Allah that we all are out safely," he added.⁠⁠⁠⁠</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113134400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="globalnews-b56eda1394f8d9a6cba2f9f720c37bfe" duplicate="chron-6dd33d079e7c791ba73ceb65b41dc627"><title>6.2 magnitude earthquake strikes Argentina</title><link>http://globalnews.ca/news/3064159/6-2-magnitude-earthquake-strikes-argentina/</link><description>A strong earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 struck northwestern Argentina early Sunday, but there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

The USGS says that the centre of the quake was on land, 91km from the city which was badly damaged by one that measured 6.3 in 2011. It was initially measured 7.4 magnitude, but later revised upwards. The initial tremor was followed by three aftershocks, further north and also both inland - including a 6.2 magnitude about 28km northwest of Kaikoura and a 5.7 south-southeast of Bleinheim. Image: USGS. The February 2011 tremor was just a few miles outside of New Zealand's third biggest town and caused widespread damage and left 185 people dead. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no risk of a tsunami from the first quake which struck just after midnight on Monday, local time. But NZ civil defence later revised the warning, saying anyone near the east coast of the South Island should move to higher ground. On their website, they warn: "A tsunami is possible following the 5.6M earthquake 20km south-east of Seddon. People near the eastern coast of the south island should immediately move to high ground or inland as far as possible." The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of 10km. Shallow tremors are said to be felt more strongly on the surface. Strong jolts were reported over 200km away in the capital, Wellington, where at least one tweeter posted pictures of damage to their home. Witnesses in Christchurch have said that the tremors lasted for a longer time that previous quakes but were less intense. It is thought the epicentre is not densely populated but is popular with tourists.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113133800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="focus-news-en-94e8308d70c11ea1ddbbcf9146b7683f" duplicate="naharnet-en-670b52b0b1cd4ad451439c6294d3eed5"><title>AFP: New Zealand issues tsunami warning after powerful quake earthquake</title><link>http://www.focus-fen.net/./news/2016/11/13/413076/afp-new-zealand-issues-tsunami-warning-after-powerful-quake-earthquake.html</link><description>Wellington.

Sunday's quake struck the Pacific nation at a depth of 23 kilometers (14.2 miles), the USGS said. And at least three aftershocks hit near South Island, USGS said.

Christchurch was devastated by a 6.3-magnitude earthquake in 2011, which killed 185 people and injured thousands. It reduced swathes of the city's historic area to rubble.

"The land has been very peaceful for many, many months. So this is bringing back all the rare memories," Chet Wah, owner of Designer Cottage B&amp;B in Christchurch, told CNN.

"I just checked with all the guests. They are alright. It is scary. It's going to be a long night."

Christchurch has a population of over 340,000 people, according to the most recent government census. New Zealand is regularly hit by earthquakes as it sits in a "collision zone" between the Indo-Australian and Pacific tectonic plates.

It is part of the Pacific's "Ring of Fire," where many earthquakes and volcano eruptions occur.

Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. There are no immediate reports of damages from the latest quake.

The tremor was felt across a large area, including Christchurch, reports say. A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 169km (105 miles) north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113123900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="metro-uk-6d9b46797bec6f19339ef31a9a47ef24"><title>New Zealand earthquake triggers tsunami as first waves hit the South Island</title><link>http://metro.co.uk/2016/11/13/new-zealand-earthquake-triggers-tsunami-as-first-waves-hit-the-south-island-6255278/</link><description>The earthquake in New Zealand has generated a tsunami, with the first waves hitting the South Island, authorities have said.

It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometres (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common. An earthquake in 2011 in Christchurch killed 185 people.

A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand's South Island early Monday, shaking residents awake, causing damage to buildings and prompting emergency services to warn people along the coast to move to higher ground to avoid tsunami waves. The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck just after midnight in a mostly rural area close to the city of Christchurch, but appeared to be more. strongly felt in Wellington, the capital, more than 200 kilometers (120 miles) to the north. Residents said the shaking went on for about three minutes, and was followed by a number of strong aftershocks. The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand's emergency call number, 111, police reported. Near the epicenter, it opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113190500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="dailymirror-b608c2adfe5221141c87848ca1bb2fa1"><title>Two-metre Tsunami hits New Zealand after multiple quakes</title><link>http://www.dailymirror.lk/119089/Two-metre-Tsunami-hits-New-Zealand-after-multiple-quakes</link><description>A two-metre high tsunami has struck New Zealand’s east coast after a powerful earthquake hit the South Island.

A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand’s South Island on Nov. 13. The U.S. Geological Survey said the magnitude-7.8 quake hit just after midnight, some 95 kilometers (59 miles) from Christchurch. The Civil Defense Ministry has warned people on the east coast of the South Island including the capital Wellington to move to higher ground after they issued a tsunami warning. Early reports suggest some houses in Cheviot town, near the epicenter, have been damaged. Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city center. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. In September, a magnitude-7.1 earthquake struck 169 kilometers (105 miles) northeast of Gisborne on the North Island, that sparked a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries were reported.

New Zealand's Geonet says that the majority of the quakes were on land, with the largest being 7.4 magnitude, according to the United States Geological Survey. It hit 57 miles (91km) from the the city of Christchurch, which was badly damaged by one that measured 6.3 in 2011. The initial tremor was followed by several aftershocks, further north and also inland - including a several above magnitude 6.

The February 2011 tremor was just a few miles outside of New Zealand's third biggest town and caused widespread damage and left 185 people dead. The US Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no risk of a tsunami from the first quake which struck just after midnight on Monday, local time.

But NZ civil defence later revised the warning, saying anyone near the east coast of the South Island should move to higher ground. There are reports that waves of up to two metres may have hit the Kaikoura area. The civil defence tweeted: "A tsunami has been generated, the first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island."

It added: "The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours."

The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours. MCDEM (@NZcivildefence) November 13, 2016 Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information for the country, listed dozens of quakes between 6.6 and 3.8 after 12.02am local time.

The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of six miles (10km). Shallow tremors are said to be felt more strongly on the surface.

Primary New Zealand #earthquake lasted about a minute. Long, long, long shake and roll. About 17 aftershocks so far, biggest mag 6.1. Rick Kiessig (@RickKiessig) November 13, 2016 Strong jolts were reported over 120 miles (200km) away in the capital, Wellington, where at least several tweeters posted pictures of damage to their homes and other buildings.

Witnesses in Christchurch have told Sky News that the tremors lasted for a longer time that previous quakes but were less intense.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113140100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="ABCnews-113f71d795df76ac0122a5ffe17b7102" duplicate="AP-5fd464d8a2dc505d688b8f18106ade9e"><title>Powerful Quake Strikes Near Christchurch, New Zealand</title><link>http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/powerful-quake-strikes-christchurch-zealand-43503794</link><description>Yahoo!-ABC News Network © 2016 ABC News Internet Ventures.

The magnitude-7.4 quake struck just after midnight Sunday and was centered 93 kilometers (57 miles) northeast of Christchurch, according to the U.S. Geological Survey . It was at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they're shallow. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.

There were no immediate reports of deaths.

Power was out and phone lines down in many areas of the country, roads were blocked by landslips and the Civil Defence Ministry warned that waves of up to five metres (yards) remained a risk for several hours. "The first waves have arrived but we know that it is too early to say what the impact has been," said Sarah Stuart-Black, national controller at the Ministry of Civil Defence. "Our concern is what is coming. Future waves are coming that may be bigger than what has come before."

The first tremor, just 15 kms deep, struck the island nation just after midnight, jolting many from their sleep and raising memories of the 6.3 magnitude Christchurch quake in 2011, which killed 185 people. New Zealand's Geonet measured Monday's quake at magnitude 7.5. New Zealand lies in the seismically active "Ring of Fire", a 40,000 kilometre arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90 percent of the world's earthquakes occur within this region.

St. John Ambulance said it was sending helicopters carrying medical and rescue personnel to the coastal tourist town of Kaikoura. It is completely cut off and officials said there are reports of a collapsed building. "There are some reports of casualties but the picture will be clearer as day breaks," Acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said.

In Wellington, there was gridlock on the roads to Mount Victoria, a hill with a lookout over the low-lying coastal city, as residents headed for higher ground. "I'm just sort of parked by the side of the road and I think people are trying to go to sleep the same as I am," Wellington resident Howard Warner told Reuters after evacuating his seaside house.

Richard Maclean, a spokesman for the Wellington City Council, said there was structural damage to several buildings. Residents were advised to stay away from the central business district on Monday and the train network was closed for checks. Wellington international airport, however, was expected to open as usual on Monday. In Christchurh, where tsunami sirens continued intermittently, three evacuation centres were accepting residents. Police have set up roadblocks to prevent people from returning to lower-lying coastal areas.

Pictures shared on social media showed buckled roads, smashed glass and goods toppled from shelves in shops in Wellington and the upper South Island. "The whole house rolled like a serpent and some things smashed, the power went out," a woman, who gave her name as Elizabeth, told Radio New Zealand from her home in Takaka, near the top of the South Island.

There was initial confusion when emergency services first said there was no tsunami threat. Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said that while the earthquake was centred inland, the fault line extended offshore for a considerable distance. That meant that seismic activity could cause movement out at sea, leading to a tsunami.

The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management issued a national advisory saying it was assessing details of the earthquake. It warned people to expect aftershocks and many had been felt with the largest a magnitude 5.6 tremor soon after the initial quake. A St John Ambulance spokesman said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. It was monitoring the situation but had yet to activate its emergency operations centre.

Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 200 kilometers (120 miles) away.

There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch. The Herald newspaper said when sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. 

Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. New Zealand sits on the "Ring of Fire," an arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where earthquakes are common.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113145900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="9news-6d7e88298c841cd4bc772738e21c9449"><title>Tsunami warning after quake hits NZ</title><link>http://www.9news.com.au/world/2016/11/14/00/26/tsunami-warning-after-quake-hits-nz</link><description>A magnitude 6.6 earthquake centred north of Christchurch has jolted New Zealand, sparking a tsunami warning.

The quake, located 20km south east of Hanmer Springs in North Canterbury at a depth of 16km, struck just after midnight on Sunday. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management warned those near the eastern coast on the South Island that a destructive tsunami was possible and advised people to stay out of the water and avoid beaches and shorelines.

People on the coast should move inland and head for higher ground it said. It said the first wave had arrived in the north eastern coast of the South Island and it may arrive on the eastern coasts of both islands. It said the first wave may arrive later and may not be the largest and said waves may continue for several hours. It warned people to expect aftershocks and a host above magnitude 5 were recorded with the biggest a 6.2 shake situated 15km north of Kaikoura. A St John Ambulance spokesman said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. It was monitoring the situation but had yet to activate its emergency operations centre. The police's 111 emergency call service had briefly gone down but was now operational. Some areas lost power after the quake and there were reports on social media of people on the streets in downtown Wellington after leaving their apartment buildings and there were reports of minor damage. People in Cheviot, at the epicentre of the first quake are reporting serious damage. "Family friends in Cheviot say some houses are gone" a woman named Brodie tweeted.. In nearby Hanmer Springs Kylie Richardson reported power outages. "Felt awful and huge here in Hanmer. We're ok," she tweeted. A woman named Karen reported that Kaikoura, which is still experiencing aftershocks, was "taking a bashing right now". Kiwis across the country are reporting damage from the more than 22 aftershocks that struck in the hour after the initial tremor. Other damage reports are coming from Christchurch and Wellington, where power is out in some parts of both cities. In Wellington cement facades have fallen onto footpaths, water is pouring from a number of underground car parks and windows have been smashed. Residents have mostly reported minor damage. In one apartment building a large shelf appears to have collapsed onto a bed, while other reports extend to items falling off shelves. Newshub reported that a chimney had collapsed at the Fiji High Commission in Wellington. Wellington mayor Justin Lester tweeted that there was some damage in Wellington's CBD. "Reports are relatively minor to date and we have people assessing now," he said. In February 2011 a destructive 6.3 earthquake killed 185 people in Canterbury. © AAP 2016</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113145100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nbcnewyork-a7e602ab4e6b193a8dccf1d82e43705e" duplicate="sinacom-a58a25e8eee08edd5fe46a758f3f9c1d"><title>Powerful Earthquake Rattles New Zealand</title><link>http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/national-international/Powerful-Earthquake-Rattles-New-Zealand-401030475.html</link><description>A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand's South Island early Monday, killing at least two people, damaging buildings and infrastructure, and prompting emergency services to warn people along the coast to move to higher ground to avoid tsunami waves.

The magnitude-7.8 earthquake struck just after midnight in a mostly rural area that's dotted with small towns. Near the epicenter, it opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. It caused damage in Wellington, the capital, more than 120 miles to the north and was also strongly felt in the city of Christchurch to the south. Residents said the shaking went on for about three minutes and was followed by a number of strong aftershocks. Police said one person died in the small coastal town of Kaikoura and another in Mount Lyford, a nearby ski resort. The quake cut off road access to Kaikoura, said resident Terry Thompson, who added that electricity and most phones were also down in the town of 2,000, a popular destination for tourists taking part in whale-watching expeditions. Thompson was out of town but managed to reach his wife by cellphone during the night before her phone died. “She said the glass exploded right out of the double ranch-slider,” he said. “The neighbor's chimney was gone, there were breakages and things smashed everywhere.” His wife helped a 93-year-old neighbor and a tourist into her car and drove to higher ground, he said. “They stayed in the car all night but couldn't sleep,” Thompson said. “They're all very, very tired and concerned about the state of their property.” Prime Minister John Key said waves of more than 6 feet hit the coast but the tsunami threat had since been downgraded to coastal warnings. He said authorities had no reason to believe the death toll would rise above the two reported fatalities. “On the very best information we have at the moment, we think it's only likely to be two. But of course there are isolated parts of the country which we don't have perfect eyes on, so we can't be 100 percent sure,” he said. Key said officials had decided not to declare a national emergency because the nation's regions were able to adequately cope with the situation.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114032700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nbcdfw-a7e602ab4e6b193a8dccf1d82e43705e" duplicate="dailynews-541f92ce6727b3dfb22bcd835761ceb4"><title>Powerful Earthquake Rattles New Zealand</title><link>http://www.nbcdfw.com/news/national-international/Powerful-Earthquake-Rattles-New-Zealand-401030475.html</link><description>A powerful earthquake struck New Zealand's South Island early Monday, killing at least two people, damaging buildings and infrastructure, and prompting emergency services to warn people along the coast to move to higher ground to avoid tsunami waves.

Lynley Davidson's mom, brother and other family members live in the Christchurch, N.Z., area and were at home when the ground started trembling at about 12 a.m. local time. "My mom was getting a drink of water at the time," she said. "She just held on to the counter and it lasted for just over two minutes so she thought it was never going to end." The quake prompted emergency officials to warn coastal residents to head for higher ground amid fears of tsunami waves hitting shore. Two people have been confirmed dead as a result of the quake, emergency officials said. Davidson said most of her family members didn't sleep because around 45 aftershocks have hit the area since the initial quake. She has been paying close attention to local TV reports from the area since early Sunday morning. 

"I woke everyone up in my house," she said. "They're just getting over the main one that was six years ago and that was 6.4." Davidson's mom lives about 20 minutes from the quake's epicentre. Her family's houses are all still standing and they are now just starting to get a sense of the damage. She was able to reach her mom and others on the phone Sunday morning. "Most people are going to try and continue their daily routine as much as possible today," she said. "My brother was getting up and getting ready and going into work." Officials had urged residents to stay home Monday amid concerns of structural damage to large buildings. Rail networks in the area were also shut down. Davidson is still going ahead with a trip she planned to the country in 10 days and while she has never experienced an earthquake, she is prepared for aftershocks to still be hitting the area when she arrives. But with two powerful earthquakes in less than a decade, Davidson worries for her family. "Every time you hear a big one like that and it's that close to where they live you're just worried," she said. "There's nothing you can do," Davidson added. "You just pray for their safety and you pray for everyone's safety."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113205000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="bbc-67b1dfed0dc95e7bc929fa4db79bf6bd"><title>New Zealand earthquake: UK man slept as earthquake hit</title><link>http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-37968713</link><description>. 13 November 2016 Last updated at 16:25 GMT.

Hanmer Springs in North Canterbury in the South Island - country still being hit, with more than 100 aftershocks so far • At least two people have been killed amid reports of many other casualties - one victim suffered a heart attack, another was killed in a historic homestead in Canterbury • Residents flee homes in the wake of tsunami threat - police now investigating three cases in which vacant houses were ransacked by burglars • Kaikoura and other South Island towns have been essentially cut off, with the famous SH1 road and rail tunnels blocked by slips • A massive slip has also closed SH70 to Waiau in north Canterbury • Wellington is also badly hit, with damage to buildings and roads - people are being told to avoid the Capital CBD.

UPDATE: Residents in the Wellington CBD have not been able to re-enter their apartments due to structural damage. Peter Whittington who lives in an apartment on Manners St said he was told by another resident that their building moved 22cm according to the fire service. "And that it is unlivable and 'a total goner.' "The earthquake caused lights in my apartment to cut out, the hallway ceiling caved in and on the 5th floor I'm hearing reports that a lot of the ceilings have caved in." "It was the scariest moment of my life and I thought the whole building would cave in," said Whittington. Whittington is staying with family in Brooklyn, whilst engineers assess the damage. "I am not eager to return if it is unsafe. But I rent here and am now anxious about what this will mean for the future." Man trying to put his pants on 'thrown into the wall. A Wellington CBD man was hurriedly trying to put on his pants mid-earthquake when the force of the shake threw him against his bedroom wall early this morning. Mark Black is one of a number of residents evacuated from an apartment building at 126 The Terrace. He was standing out in the cold this morning as the building was inspected, but residents don't yet have a timeframe on when they'll be able to head back inside. "I'm usually someone that usually just lies through it, but it got a bit rough inside," Black said. "I'm trying to put pants on and get thrown into the wall." Black initially "tried to sleep through it" but soon realised it was too serious for that. He lived on the seventh floor of the apartment building, and said he felt for the people living right at the top. Resident Julian Tohiariki was relieved his heavily pregnant wife was far away from the action, in Invercargill. He was awake when the earthquake started, and said it "sort of just got bigger and bigger and bigger" before a "big snap". "I was thinking 'oh, is this an earthquake? It is an earthquake, oh my goodness'," he said. "The flat was a bit of a mess, things were falling down . . . I can see why all the Christchurch people can get sick of it." He and his flatmates were "pretty shaken up". "It's okay to see it in the paper and read about it in the paper but when you're in it yourself it's actually quite an unnerving event. You're totally at the mercy of the elements." Tohiariki is a commander with the Fire Service and said he was used to emergency management, which helped a bit. He and his flatmates decided to stay inside when the quake finished, but this morning all residents were evacuated. Another resident, Suzanne George, found herself standing out in the cold in her pyjamas for a couple of hours following the quake. "I literally had my keys, my phone, my blanket, and my pyjamas," she said. George said she has been living in Wellington for nine years and was "definitely no stranger to the earthquakes, but this one definitely take the cake". She said the quake didn't throw her around, but she "very quickly jumped out of bed" and "did the whole drop, hold, cover thing". "Obviously I quickly realised exactly how harsh this earthquake was." George said she and other residents were told there was no time frame on when they would be allowed back inside the apartment building, which has cracks in it visible from outside and broken windows. Lizzie Phillips said she could see cracks appearing in the stairwell walls as she fled the building. She said it was "terrifying". "I just didn't realise that the building would sway so much being on the fifth floor. "I don't really like the idea of going back up there." Phillips was stuck outside in the cold wind this morning, but said it was "nice" to know the building was being checked.

Towns cut off after landslide from deadly 7.5 NZ quake. Emergency services have confirmed one death at the Elms Homestead in Kaikoura. Three people live at the historic home. One person was able to escape, one was rescued and third has died. Relatives of the family are having trouble contacting emergency services due to congested phone lines and power cuts. A second person has died of a heart attack at a property in Mt Lyford and there are reports of several people suffering non-fatal heart attacks in the hours following the main quake. St John has activated its National Crisis Coordination Centre and has set up local Emergency Operation Centres in the South Island. A spokeswoman said St John staff, resources and emergency equipment have been relocated to higher ground, and resource is being moved to affected areas in order to maintain response capability. Casualty numbers and injury numbers are unknown at this stage. Speaking from the Beehive's civil defence bunker, Prime Minister John Key said all 16 regions had activated civil defence requirements. Tsunami warnings replace in place for much of the East Coast where ways of up to 2m have already stuck. Key said it was important for people to keep following safety advice. He said New Zealand was in "great shape" to meet any costs from the quakes, but expected there would be significant repairs needed. He also confirm the two deaths. Acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said the pressing need was to get communications gear in to cut off areas and that would be the first task for the helicopters. He said there weren't reports of many homes or other buildings brought down. While there had been reports of items falling from shelves, some cracks in buildings and smashed windows in Wellington the true extent of property damage is being revealed as emergency service workers begin assess infrastructure and homes in the light of day.

Kaikoura has also been cut off but reports of bad damage are hard to substantiate due to power cuts, blocked roads and a congested mobile network. Military helicopters would be going there to assess damage and make contact. The Fire Service is also sending a seven-strong Urban Search And Rescue squad from Christchurch by helicopter. Assessment teams are also being sent to Waiau and Blenheim. In Wellington the TSB Arena and BNZ Centre have sustained the most damage. There is damage to wharves and the Inter Islander terminal, and the Tory Channel remained closed.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114003200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-be423513d08a04e4cc04d87ccfaf2c6f"><title>Earthquake: Winston Peters calling for new looting laws after three houses burgled</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=11747736&amp;ref=rss</link><description>New Zealand First leader Winston Peters is calling for tough new laws around looting.

New Zealand First leader Winston Peters is calling for tough new laws around looting after three houses were burgled in the aftermath of this morning's earthquake. Hundreds of Christchurch residents fled their homes when a tsunami warning was issued following the 7.5-magnitude quake 20km south-east of Hanmer Springs. As of 9am, Christchurch police had received three reports of burglaries, which "appear to have occurred while people were evacuated following the earthquakes," said Canterbury District Commander Superintendent John Price. The couple have two daughters and the youngest has muscular dystrophy. A work truck and $5000 hearing device relied upon by their disabled 12-year-old daughter were stolen, as well as their television and an Xbox.

Peters called on the Government to introduce laws which took a hard line on looting during civil emergencies. "Parliament, when it resumes tomorrow, should condemn these acts, and agree to pass legislation that will deliver a sentence that will make anyone else, when tempted, think twice," he said. "These individuals are preying on others during periods of extreme stress and tragedy ... that anyone would rob others at a time of such crisis is evil." Peters said police should be free to concentrate on the emergency effort. Continued below. Related Content "Their valuable work is diverted by such selfish acts. Looting occurred at the time of the Christchurch earthquakes, too, and, to be fair, we Parliamentarians should have done something about it. "Let's make a commitment to do something." The Mill family left their Bower Ave home at 2am and returned five hours later to find it ransacked. Melissa Mill said police had been alerted but due to the situation they said it could be two days before anyone could get to the home. "We took our family away to be safe and came back to all of this ... it's just devastating." Price said: "If people witness crime or are concerned about suspicious behaviour we encourage them to follow the normal processes and contact police immediately." "It is extremely disappointing that in a time when people are facing a traumatic event, others decide to take advantage like this." He said the fear of being looted should not trump personal safety when it came to returning home. spoke to two people whose homes were looted as they evacuated the area. A Give A Little page set up for the Mill family had raised more than $8000 as of 2.30pm. •Police are looking for a silver Mazda BT50, registration EPP79 with black roof racks in relation to the burglary of the Mill family's home.

It struck near Hanmer Springs, 91km north of Christchurch, which is still recovering after being devastated by an earthquake in 2011. More than 100 aftershocks have been recorded, including three over magnitude six. There were power outages in both the North and South Islands and mobile phone networks struggled to keep up with demand as panicked people tried to get in touch with loved ones. A tsunami — with waves reportedly as high as two metres — struck the northeastern South Island coast around the city of Kaikoura, while smaller waves were recorded in the capital city Wellington and locations along the east coast. The nationwide tsunami threat has now been cancelled. New Zealand Prime Minister John Key told reporters early on Monday there had been two deaths. More couldn’t be ruled out as authorities reached isolated communities near the epicentre. Mr Key praised the response to the disaster and tsunami warnings. “New Zealanders responded as they should have. They took the (Civil Defence) advice seriously,” he said.

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull told Sunrise he had spoken with Mr Key. “I assured him of absolute solidarity and support from Australia. John appreciated that. He knows that we support them when it comes to emergencies and natural disasters.” He said he passed on Australian condolences for the two people killed. “But obviously, it is early days. He is a great leader. New Zealand is very experienced with dealing with earthquakes, and I am sure he will have the matter in hand.” The quake temporarily knocked out New Zealand’s emergency call number, 111, police reported. Near the epicentre, it opened up snaking fissures in roads and triggered landslides. In Wellington, it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists onto the streets as hotels were evacuated. Authorities in Wellington were urging people who work in the centre of the city to stay home today. City officials said some large buildings were showing signs of structural stress, and that the quake would likely have caused a mess in some buildings. The city’s suburban rail network was shut while crews checked tracks, bridges and tunnels. Those caught up in the quake said they feared for their lives. Pam Bennett from Amberley told TVNZ the quake was the worst she’d ever felt.

“It was like my house was on a bungee cord — boom, boom, boom, backwards and forwards. I just couldn’t stand up no matter what,” she said. Anna Harcourt told the : “I was asleep and all off a sudden I was woken to my bedroom shaking. It just went on and on and there was a moment when I genuinely thought that this was it, that my life was going to end.” Ms Harcourt said she ran out of her bedroom and hid for cover under a table. “As soon as the trembling stopped my boyfriend and I ran outside and saw heaps of people and families gathered together,” she said. “Everyone is in complete shock … it’s terrifying.” There were reports that houses in Cheviot, near where the quake was centred in Canterbury, were badly affected by the shake. Photos and videos posted to social media showed shelves overturned inside homes, wine bottles smashed on the ground of stores and people out on the street following the initial quake.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113221700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="krqe-e376d2db11d5888dd5b173d7517083cd"><title>7.8 magnitude quake hits New Zealand, prompts tsunami warning</title><link>http://krqe.com/2016/11/13/7-8-magnitude-quake-hits-new-zealand-prompts-tsunami-warning/</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand (KRQE) – Fernanda Lopez Authorities on New Zealand’s South Island are telling its residents along the eastern coast to move to higher ground as a powerful earthquake has already prompted big waves.

The magnitude 6.6 quake was 16km deep and struck at 12.02am. Here's what you need to know: Tsunami warning. A tsunami warning has been issued for southern coastal areas of New Zealand and the east coast of the North Island. Civil Defence says if you're in a coastal area stay out of the water, off beaches, and listen to the radio or TV for updates. If you're near the eastern coast of the south island, immediately move to high ground or inland as far as possible. Take a getaway kit if possible, but don't travel into areas at risk to get the kit or belongings. Take your pets with you if you can be done safely. If evacuation maps are present, follow the routes shown. Walk or bike if possible and drive only if essential. If driving, keep going once you're well outside the evacuation zone to allow room for others behind you. If a tsunami hits and you cannot escape the tsunami, go to an upper storey of a sturdy building or climb onto a roof or up a tree, or grab a floating object and hang on until help arrives. Boats are usually safer in water deeper than 20m than if they are on the shore. Move boats out to sea only if there is time and it is safe to do so. Listen to your local radio stations as emergency management officials will be broadcasting the most appropriate advice for your community and situation. Road closures. The road between Blenheim and Waipara has been closed due to earthquake damage. A slip has blocked both lanes on State Highway Seven, at the turnoff to Hanmer Springs. The slip is blocking both lanes on the eastern side of the Waiau Ferry Bridge. Power outages. There are reports of power outages in Hanmer and Amberley.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113135900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="voxy-b1964b59dab18c4bb9ee9b6dcc24a0f1"><title>Upper South Island earthquake response - NZMEA</title><link>http://www.voxy.co.nz/national/5/268204</link><description>Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the earthquake that hit the upper South Island and Wellington region today.

We have been reaching out to our manufacturing members and offer our support if there is anything we can do to help them in this time, say the New Zealand Manufacturers and Exporters Association (NZMEA). NZMEA Chief Executive Dieter Adam says, "So far at this early stage, it appears that manufacturers in Christchurch have come through today’s severe earthquake and the aftershocks largely unscathed. We are still waiting to hear from those further North who could be more affected - we hope they and their families are okay and the damage to operations is limited. "With the road closures, there may be some ongoing challenges within supply chains, even to less directly impacted areas. These are times to work together and try ensure everyone can get back to normal as soon as possible. "With the Christchurch earthquakes still in recent memory, many of our Canterbury members have a lot of experience dealing with the immediate and longer-term problems in the aftermath of a large earthquake. If there are any manufacturers effected by today’s event that would like someone to talk to and receive some advice, we can put them in touch with other members who have been through this before."

Federated Farmers adverse events spokeswoman Katie Milne said it depended on what infrastructure farmers had. If it went into effluent ponds it would end up being used as fertiliser. Fonterra tankers are not able to access a large number of farms. Farmers are also facing a crisis of trying to milk cows, but their milking sheds have been damaged. A Fonterra spokeswoman said 12 farms could not milk their herds so far due to the earthquake forcing rotary systems to jump off their rollers in the Kaikoura and Culverden region. There would also be collection issues involving some farms where roads are closed or there was limited access. There was no reports of major damage at any of their sites and no injuries to staff. However unlike some years, there were no tankers waiting to cross Cook Strait with milk to be processed in the South Island. Milne said farmers were helping each other out by sharing facilities. She said in a lot of cases dairy farmers carried insurance for such an event. Some farmers were thrown off their feet near the epicentre of the 7.5 earthquake in the early hours of the morning. They were counting the toll at first light and reports near Waiau township have come in of milking sheds worth thousands of dollars being out of operation, toppled fuel tanks and ground ripping from the quake. The main Waiau bridge is understood to have damage at both ends of it, with limited to no access into the township.

Farmers needing bridge access to get off their properties are stranded where there is damage to bridge structures. During the worst of the shaking farmers told of freezers toppling and stoves and radiators being ripped out. They were unable to stand up during the quake's peak. Farmers were calling each other to provide reassurance and offer assistance. Power outages have farmers relying on gas barbecues for cooking and could cause water problems if pumps were out. After the 2010 Christchurch quake 160 grain silos needed to be repaired or replaced. Milne said dry stock farmers would not be so immediately affected. If they had stock due to go to meat processing works, they would have to put them back onto paddocks. There had been concerns about some side creeks being blocked, which might lead to flash floods, which had occurred in past quakes. Milne advised people to treat every wire as a live one and to touch base with their neighbours. The best thing the Government could do was to restore infrastructure. The Waiau Bridge was down; if people had power and communications they were in a much better position. Federated Farmers is updating its Facebook page with "verifiable data", Milne said. Milne, who runs a dairy farm in Buller, just three kilometres from the Alpine Fault, said she had not only felt the main quake strongly, but also the aftershocks. "It was a reminder to me what it would be like if we had a quake along the fault." Federated Farmers North Canterbury dairy chairman Michael Woodward said he was getting reports from other farmers of damage to their farms. The area south of Culverden had some minor damage and apart from the power being out on many properties, most farmers were fine, he said. "Otherwise from Culverden north, up to Kaikoura, there's reports of [rotary] sheds been knocked off their pedestals and one or two staff houses knocked over." Woodward said the biggest issue for North Canterbury farms was the lack of power in affected areas and inaccessibility due to road damage. This made it impossible to provide support for affected farmers and further understand the situation. Restoring access and restoring power was the immediate priority. "The hard part is getting power so those cows can be milked and also getting stock water to those cows. It's those little things that start adding up after a day or two." Woodward, who farms at Leeston, described the earthquake as " a rolling sensation", that went on for about a minute and a half compared to the violent shake in 2010. "We milked as normal this morning. It still woke us up and it puts the willies up you. We dodged a bullet and were pretty lucky." While his milk was able to be collected without any issues in the early hours of the morning, for those further north, it would be a lot more challenging given the road damage at areas around Kaikoura and Cheviot, he said. "There are some farmers there that are going to have to have milk that is put down the drain because there is nobody that can collect it." If the lack of shed power continued over the next day or two, it would affect the farmer's milk production for the season, he said. "If you can't milk your cows they will dry themselves off so you probably have one or two days of not milking before you have jeopardised the rest of your season." However, Woodward knew of farmers that were sharing their sheds or generators with farmers without power so they could get their cows milked. That provided a logistical challenge with most herds in the region carrying over 600 cows. Those cows had to be walked, fed and milked in those sheds. Fortunately there was enough feed around for those farms to temporarily carry that extra capacity, he said. "We have already had people ring up and say they can carry extra cows off some of those farmers and we're already getting great community support as it's going to be a long road to get those guys back to normailty." New Zealand dairy farms had just come off their production peak and many were about to be mated and the road damage meant AI technicians would not be able to get onto farms. That could potentially have a flow-on effect into next season if cows could not get pregnant at the right time, Woodward said. A Synlait spokesman said the factory at Dunsandel was undamaged and no staff were injured. It was too early to know if the earthquake had affected milk collections among its suppliers. Ravensdown communications advisor Penny Clark-Hall, whose partner has a sheep and beef property inland from Culverden, said it was "pretty intense" when the quake hit although the house survived without any noticeable damage. Her parents, who farm further north, suffered more. "All their farms sheds have collapsed, the water pipes into the house burst and there is water everywhere. The power is down but fortunately they have got a generator." She said although the Waiau bridge was closed for vehicles, it was possible to walk across it.

It seems even the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), more than 18,000km away in Switzerland, reported "feeling" this morning's earthquake. The beam orbit of the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator, housed in a tunnel deep beneath the France-Switzerland border, was slightly affected by the quake. European Organisation for Nuclear Research (Cern) accelerator physicist John Jowett tweeted that the LHC beam orbit registered a 0.1mm "wobble", but it didn't trouble the machine at all. "Sadly not the case for people in NZ," he added. So what is the LHC? It's a 27km ring of superconducting magnets with a number of accelerating structures to boost the energy of the particles along the way.

Inside it, two high-energy particle beams travel at close to the speed of light before they are made to collide. The beams travel in opposite directions in separate beam pipes, which are two tubes kept at ultra-high vacuum. They're guided around the accelerator ring by a strong magnetic field maintained by superconducting electromagnets. The electromagnets are built from coils of special electric cable that operates in a superconducting state, efficiently conducting electricity without resistance or loss of energy. Continued below. Related Content "Thousands of magnets of different varieties and sizes are used to direct the beams around the accelerator," Cern says. These include 1232 dipole magnets 15m long, which bend the beams, and 392 quadruple magnets, each 5m to 7m long, which focus the beams. Just before collision, another type of magnet is used to "squeeze" the particles closer together to increase the chances of collisions. The particles are so tiny that the task of making them collide is akin to firing two needles 10km apart with such precision that they meet halfway. It's used to test the predictions of different theories of particle physics, high-energy physics and in particular, to further test the properties of the Higgs boson, as well as to answer many other unsolved questions of physics and to ultimately boost our human understanding of physical laws. It is so sensitive, Auckland University physicist Richard Easther explained, that it would pick up any large quake when running. "Despite being 27km in circumference, the Large Hadron Collider is enormously sensitive to small changes in its environment," Easther said. "Particles move in both directions round the underground circle at up to 99.999999 per cent of the speed of light and the scientists operating the accelerator are always adjusting the "beam" to make sure that the particles stay on course. "Even though Switzerland is on the other side of the world from New Zealand, the shaking from our big earthquake clear threw the particles inside the LHC off-track, even though the tremor would have been completely imperceptible to a human being."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114004600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="todayonline-e0697625a14c29999257417d15c5c32d"><title>'Tsunami possible' after 6.6 magnitude quake strikes near Christchurch</title><link>http://www.todayonline.com/world/66-magnitude-quake-strikes-91km-christchurch</link><description>CHRISTCHURCH - A tsunami warning has been given after an earthquake with a magnitude measuring 6.6 struck the Canterbury region of New Zealand's South Island on Sunday (Nov 13), just over 90km from Christchurch.

New Zealand is on the Pacific Ring of Fire, a belt of volcanic and quake activity that rings the Pacific Ocean. Christchurch is still recovering from a 2011 quake that killed 185 people and destroyed the central city. The quake, initially reported as magnitude 7.6, was followed by several aftershocks, including tremors of magnitudes 6.1 and 5.6, GeoNet said. The Ministry of Civil Defence said people near the eastern coast of the South Island should immediately move to high ground or as far inland as possible. Do not go to the shore to watch for a tsunami, and stay away from at-risk areas until an all-clear is given, it said on its website.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113141800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="sundayworld-2816b83f5e40a4de5db81b523b4553d4"><title>Tsunami warning issued after massive earthquake strikes New Zealand</title><link>http://www.sundayworld.com/news/tsunami-warning-issued-after-massive-earthquake-strikes-new-zealand</link><description>Initially New Zealand Civil Defence just tweeted that it is "assessing [the] situation with assistance of scientific advisors and civil defence groups".

It was at a relatively shallow depth of six miles. Earthquakes tend to be more strongly felt on the surface when they are shallow. Monday's quake was much farther away from any major population centres.

"We've had very limited communications there because they've been cut off so we've been working through police comms, during the night," he said. "We also want to thank everyone for the response that's been going on." In a statement, police confirmed that one person had been killed when a building collapsed near the epicenter of the quake. A tsunami was generated and the first waves hit the South Island's east coast, according to the country's Civil Defence agency. The agency later downgraded tsumani threat, but marine and beach threats remain in place.

The USGS said the latest quake , which struck about 57 miles northeast of Christchurch, was magnitude 7.8. However, Civil Defence put the strength at 5.6 and reported a series of aftershocks. Some minor damage was reported in the capital, Wellington, over 120 miles away. There were no immediate reports of major damage or injuries in Christchurch but some social media users posted pictures of upturned furniture.

The ministry of civil defence has warned people on the east coast of the South Island to move to higher ground in case of tsunamis. Christchurch is still recovering from the 2011 earthquake that killed 185 people and destroyed the city centre. New Zealand lies on the notorious Ring of Fire, the line of frequent quakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim. The Herald newspaper said the tremor was felt all the way to Wellington, where sirens sounded and people fled buildings into the streets, some of them crying. Early reports suggest some houses in Cheviot town, near the epicentre, have been damaged. A resident of Christchurch said the tremor lasted a "long" time. "We were asleep and woken to the house shaking, it kept going and going and felt like it was going to build up," she told AFP news agency. A magnitude-7.1 quake struck 169km (105 miles) north-east of Gisborne on the North Island in September, sparking a tsunami warning. It caused some damage to property, but no injuries.

The quake, located 20km south east of Hanmer Springs in North Canterbury at a depth of 16km, struck just after midnight on Sunday and a swarm of aftershocks have rattled the country since. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management issued a tsunami warning for all of the east coast of the South Island and North Island including Chatham Islands. It said wave gauges confirmed a tsunami was generated and wave activity had been detected in the areas around Kaikoura and Wellington. It warned those in low lying areas in eastern parts on both islands and on Chatam Islands to head immediately for higher ground. It said the first wave activity may not be the most significant and waves could continue for several hours.

— KiwiClara Cosplay (@kiwiclara) November 13, 2016 The initial quake was registered as a 6.6 shake before being upgraded by GeoNet seismologists.

A host aftershocks above magnitude 5 were recorded with the biggest a 6.2 shake situated 15km north of Kaikoura. A St John Ambulance spokesman said it had no reports of injuries from the quake. It was monitoring the situation but had not activated its emergency operations centre.

Some areas lost power after the quake and there were reports on social media of people on the streets in downtown Wellington after leaving their apartment buildings. People in Cheviot, near the epicentre of the first quake, are reporting serious damage. "Family friends in Cheviot say some houses are gone" a woman named Brodie tweeted. Kiwis across the country are reporting damage from the more than 20 aftershocks that struck after the initial tremor. Other damage reports are coming from Christchurch and Wellington, where power is out in some parts of both cities.

Sirens going off right now in Redcliffs/ Sumner — Michael Trengrove (@mdtrengrove) November 13, 2016 In Wellington cement facades have fallen onto footpaths, water is pouring from a number of underground car parks and windows have been smashed.

Residents have mostly reported minor damage. In one apartment building a large shelf appears to have collapsed onto a bed, while other reports extend to items falling off shelves.

— Jodi Ihaka (@JodiIhaka) November 13, 2016 Wellington mayor Justin Lester tweeted that there was some damage in Wellington's CBD.

"Reports are relatively minor to date and we have people assessing now," he said. In February 2011 a destructive 6.3 earthquake killed 185 people in Canterbury.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113151000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="themirror-2a443cba6a8e76a0886b114602a0f667"><title>Powerful earthquake hits Christchurch in New Zealand measuring 7.4</title><link>http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/powerful-earthquake-hits-christchurch-new-9251440</link><description>We'll be bringing you the very latest updates, pictures and video on this breaking news story.

Cheers for the concern all, everyone’s ok. Here’s the kitchen… — Richard Bicknell (@dickbicknell) November 13, 2016 The magnitude-7.8 quake struck just after midnight 132 miles south of Wellington, where it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves.

Authorities later downgraded tsunami warnings around the country following the quake. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management reported that a tsunami wave struck at about 1:50am and warned residents living in low-lying areas anywhere along the country’s east coast to move to higher ground. Prime Minister John Key said at a news conference later that the tsunami warnings were being downgraded to coastal warnings.

"It's emotionally draining enough, and hard enough to be sitting an exam without having spent all night up - half of them terrified - and frankly there could well be aftershocks during the exams. I'm not entirely sure it is fair on them. "They [NZQA] are in a better position to judge. I don't want to mess up the whole system. But I'm just saying, there are plenty of people around the area that I live in in Wellington, that if they got much sleep last night I'd be surprised."

He said officials had no reason to believe the death toll would rise. “On the very best information we have at the moment, we think it’s only likely to be two. But of course there are isolated parts of the country which we don’t have perfect eyes on, so we can’t be 100% sure,” he said. The quake triggered a tsunami, and people on the east coast of the South and North Islands were told by civil defence and via emergency sirens to move immediately to higher ground. Key said crews would be better able to assess the damage during the day. He said officials had decided not to declare a national emergency because the nation’s regions were able to adequately cope with the situation. He said waves of about two metres (6.6ft) had hit the coast but the tsunami threat had since been downgraded to coastal warnings. The earthquake lasted just over a minute, and aftershocks continue to be strongly felt particularly in the north-east of the South Island and the capital city of Wellington. In Wellington it collapsed a ferry loading ramp, broke windows and caused items to fall from shelves. It also forced hundreds of tourists on to the streets as hotels were evacuated. The full extent of the damage from the quake is not yet fully known as emergency services are yet to reach some areas. Power has been lost in many small South Island towns and parts of Wellington. The worst-hit areas are the east coast of the South Island. The small, seaside town of Kaikoura, a popular destination for whale watching, has been effectively cut off, with telecommunications down and some roads left unpassable following landslides. There are reports of a train trapped north of Kaikoura, and at least one major building collapsed in the town itself. Sharon O’Loughlin’s elderly parents Barry and Kathy O’Loughlin live in Kaikoura, and O’Loughlin spoke to her mother as she was fleeing her house at 12.18am. Her mother only said “hi” before the phone line cut out. O’Loughlin, who is hundreds of kilometres away in Dunedin, has been unable to reach her parents since, but received a text message from her mother via her brother in Australia, saying: “We are up on the hill, a lot smashed up in the house.” St John rescue helicopters have been dispatched to Kaikoura, loaded with intensive-care medical equipment and extra paramedics to be able to treat patients on the ground, and a number of military helicopters have been sent from Christchurch to assess the damage, re-establish communication and deploy search and rescue teams. Many roads in the South Island are closed due to landslides and damage, particularly a number of significant roads connecting the west and east coasts of the South Island. Widespread damage is reported to bridges, infrastructure and buildings in the northern South Island. The east coast South Island university town of Dunedin issued a state-of-emergency evacuation notice for its northern and southern beach communities just after 4am. Tsunami sirens sounded in the remote villages and emergency services went door to door evacuating residents. The state of emergency was cancelled just after dawn when the tsunami risk was downgraded.

After being advised to head to higher ground just after 3am, thousands of Wellingtonians drove or walked from low-lying areas to Mt Victoria, Mt Cook and the hills above Lyall Bay. Emily White, 29, a resident of central Wellington, took cover under her dining table with her flatmates during the quake, which White said was “the strongest quake I have ever felt; it was really unnerving”. The trio then packed backpacks with food and emergency supplies and walked to the war memorial in the suburb of Mt Cook, where they were soon joined by hundreds of others responding to the civic defence advice to evacuate to higher ground. White said the McDonald’s near the war memorial was “packed” at 3am. Simon Morton and his family were woken by the “super slow roller” quake just after midnight. Morton and his wife, Jo, live in the seaside Wellington suburb of Lyall Bay just seven to eight metres from the sea. Morton made the immediate decision to evacuate his family to higher ground and packed the family in his truck and drove them to View Street, nearly 80m above sea level. After 40 minutes and no further serious activity, Morton and his family returned home. Just as he was getting into bed Morton noticed the tide was the lowest he had ever seen. Fearing tsunamis, his wife said it was “very weird” and the couple made the decision to again evacuate their family. Morton and his family spent the rest of the night on the hill and were joined by around 100 vehicles packed with evacuees, many of whom has brought pets, coffee and food. New Zealand lies in the seismically active “Ring of Fire”, a 40,000km arc of volcanoes and oceanic trenches that partly encircles the Pacific Ocean. Around 90% of the world’s earthquakes occur within this region.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113214000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="simcoe-47d920c21fa076e5968d39f1f97fa7ab" duplicate="newson6-58585d8766c8a054921e3b639a2b1220"><title>At least 2 people killed in NZ earthquake: PM</title><link>http://www.simcoe.com/news-story/6963658-at-least-2-people-killed-in-nz-earthquake-pm/</link><description>WELLINGTON, New Zealand — New Zealand Prime Minister John Key says at least two people were killed in the powerful earthquake that struck the country.

At least two people were killed and more fatalities were feared after a powerful 7.8 earthquake struck New Zealand just after midnight Monday (Nov 14), while residents in coastal areas fled following tsunami warnings. As dawn broke there was scant information from many rural villages in the South Island, which were isolated by landslips and fractured telephone communications as strong aftershocks continued for several hours. Prime Minister John Key confirmed two people had died and said “we cannot rule out” that number will rise, nearly seven hours after the main quake. Police were trying to reach the scene of one fatality at a remote property 150 kilometres north of Christchurch while another person died in a historic homestead which collapsed at the nearby fishing village of Kaikoura.

“At this point we are unable to give precise details of what caused those fatalities,” Key said, adding that communication problems made it difficult to get information. Helicopters were taking official workers to the worst-affected area, he said.

Donald Trump picks RNC chairman Reince Priebus as White House chief of staff. President-elect Donald Trump has chosen Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, the establishment favourite and a low-key party insider, to serve as his White House chief of staff, CNN quoted sources as saying on Sunday (Nov 13). The choice of Priebus, a loyal campaign ally to Trump who has close ties with House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan, signalled a willingness to work with Ryan and the Republican-led Congress to get his agenda passed. The other front-runner for the job had been Stephen Bannon, Trump's campaign chairman and former head of the conservative Breitbart News.

6.2-magnitude quake shakes northwestern Argentina. A strong 6.2-magnitude earthquake hit northwestern Argentina on Sunday (Nov 13), the US Geological Survey said, but there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries. The quake, at a depth of 62 miles (100 kilometers), struck shortly after 1400 GMT (10pm Singapore time) about 16 miles north of the city Chilecito in the South American nation’s La Rioja province. Villagers reported that the movement was felt in the neighboring provinces of Catamarca, Tucuman and Cordoba. The country’s seismic authority also reported three smaller earthquakes Sunday.

Briton sets off to swim across Atlantic, after delay. After a delayed start, a former British policeman aiming to swim across the Atlantic finally set off Sunday (Nov 13) from Senegal, bound for Brazil more than 3,000 km away. "Here we go," said 38-year-old Ben Hooper, as he tugged on his goggles and said goodbye to loved ones and supporters on the beach of an hotel in Hann Bay, in the east of Dakar. "To the whole world thank you very much for your support," he said, before striding into the waves at the start of the record-breaking attempt, expected to take nearly five months.

Formula One: Hamilton wins to take title showdown to final race. The Formula One world championship will go down to the last race of the season after Lewis Hamilton won a chaotic Brazilian Grand Prix from title rival Nico Rosberg on Sunday (Nov 13). Abu Dhabi in a fortnight will be the scene for the title showdown between the Mercedes team-mates after reigning champion Hamilton survived a race that was repeatedly disrupted by heavy rain and crashes. Rosberg now needs a podium finish in the final event on Nov 27 to seal his first title triumph. “I was just chilling up front. When it rains it is usually a good day for me. Today was tricky for everyone,” said the Briton Hamilton, after denying Rosberg the race win the German needed to lift the title.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113231900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-ef785d1f749f66157579db471e598c5a"><title>NZ markets resilient to earthquakes says expert</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&amp;objectid=11747636&amp;ref=rss</link><description>New Zealand's markets are equipped to deal with earthquakes and are holding up well says a top fund manager.

Shane Solly, director of Harbour Asset Investment Management, says the country is in good order this morning following last night's 7.5 magnitude earthquake. "People are upset but we are holding up pretty well," he said. "The country is equipped to deal with these events. We have a strong government position in place for earthquakes and the business community has learnt a lot from Canterbury. We are fiscally resilient in the face of natural disasters." Tower Insurance is the most demonstrable loser this morning, down 9.4 per cent, but property assets are in reasonably good order across the country. WATCH: Damage in Wellington after the overnight earthquake

The biggest problem now is the threat of aftershocks, said Solly. "Disruption slows businesses down, so aftershocks are a worry." "Touch wood, we are continuing on." Construction company Fletcher Building was among the stocks to gain, rising 2.5 per cent to $10.38 with the firm likely to be a beneficiary from any extra work that comes from damage caused by the quake, and also from extra export revenue achieved from a weaker currency. "Overall I expected a softer open to the market - maybe a lot of investors, with very little volumes going through, maybe too concerned about other things to be worried about their share portfolios," said Grant Williamson, a director at Hamilton Hindin Greene in Christchurch. "Fletcher Building will be a benefactor of whatever needs to be repaired and fixed." Logistics and tourism could take a hit in the aftermath of the quake, with ports experiencing disruption and overseas visitors potentially putting off their trips here. The kiwi dollar fell when the New Zealand market opened, and recently traded at 71.29 US cents, but that follows the trend of decline since the US election, Solly said.

A tsunami warning has been issued by the country’s Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management. It has warned of the risk of destructive waves along the entire east coast, calling on people to move inland and find higher ground. The magnitude of the tremor, which struck just after midnight local time and was felt across a large area, has been upgraded from 7.4 to 7.8 by the US Geological Survey. There have been some reports of injuries but no immediate reports of deaths. Power was knocked out in some areas and people rushed out into the streets. A series of aftershocks were recorded around the country, some as strong as 6.1 magnitude. Officials in Cheviot, a coastal town near the quake’s epicentre, are said to have been evacuating residents. Residents in Wellington said glass had fallen from buildings into the streets, and hotels and apartment buildings had been evacuated. The city council has reported structural damage to several buildings. Christchurch was devastated by a 6.3 earthquake in 2011 that left 185 people dead and damaged the city centre. The tsunami threat is for the entire NZ coastline. Stay off beaches. First waves have arrived but may not be the largest. MCDEM (@NZcivildefence) November 13, 2016 The first wave may not be the largest. Tsunami activity will continue for several hours.

Aftershocks have been felt as far north as Pukekohe, just south of Auckland. A tsunami warning is in place across the country, with much of the east coast of the South Island and the Chatham Islands expecting waves of up to five metres.

In Wellington, sirens can be heard and people are on the street crying. New Zealand Civil Defence just tweeted that it is "assessing [the] situation with assistance of scientific advisors and civil defence groups". There are reports that houses in Cheviot, near where the quake was centred in Canterbury, are badly affected by the shake. Police have stated their emergency 111 lines are again non-operational after initially going down as a result of the quake. That was a very large shake. We are now looking into the shake and will be with you all shortly with info.

There are reports that houses in Cheviot, near the earthquake's epicentre in Canterbury, have been badly damaged.

Vulcanologists are keeping a close eye on volcanic activity following the severe earthquake that struck the South Island overnight. So far, there has been no increase in activity. The quake struck just after midnight near Hanmer Springs and was felt across New Zealand, as far away as Auckland. Vulcanologist Agnes Mazot has monitored the activity of all major volcanic sites since. READ MORE:

She said there has been no increase in activity. "I was looking at this just five minutes ago and it has been alright. I don't see anything different from before the earthquake," she said. Mazot said they will be closely monitoring volcanic activity throughout Monday. Emergency services have been working through the night in worst hit areas north of Christchurch. Two people have been killed asa result of the quake.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113201800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-79a7f821b6da5240e580f7a15cdfe05b"><title>Earthquake: Two dead in 7.5-magnitude quake</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86417711/Earthquake-Two-dead-in-7-5-magnitude-quake</link><description>Two people have died following a massive 7.6-magnitude earthquake, John Key says.

"On the best information we have there's been two fatalities. At this point we're unable to give you precise information on what caused those fatalities," the prime minister said in his first address to media since the earthquake. "We think it's only likely to be two - there are isolated parts of the country that we don't have perfect eyes on so we can't be 100 per cent sure."

Kaikoura on the East Coast was the worst affected and an NH90 helicopter will be heading there "very rapidly" to assess the situation. READ MORE: Live - quake upgraded to 7.5, felt across New Zealand Key said military helicopters are available and once it's practical to do so both he and acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee will head to the worst affected areas.

A national emergency hasn't been called at this stage because the 16 regional Civil Defences are all activated and able to "carry out their functions". The quake was widely felt in both the South and North Islands, as far north as Auckland, causing damage and knocking out power as well as triggering tsunami alerts. Police earlier said they were trying to access a property north of Christchurch where a person was believed to have died.

The Fire Service was also searching for a person who was believed to be missing after a homestead collapsed in Kaikoura. One person had been found alive in the rubble. The Christchurch Fire Service was sending a special task force to the historic Elm Homestead at first light. A 7-person Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) squad was en route to Kaikoura from Christchurch by helicopter. Assessment teams were travelling to Waiau and Blenheim. Key was due to fly out to Argentina on Tuesday en route to APEC in Peru. A decision hasn't been made about whether he will cancel his plans but it's possible the Argentina leg of the trip will be cancelled. Key said he was in bed at Premier House in Wellington with his wife, Bronagh, when the quake struck. "It went on for so long - we eventually did start moving at a point. "It was a very significant shock. It started...a little more slowly....but then it started building in its intensity. You'll appreciate Premier House was built a long time ago so it's a structure that rattles around. "There's some glasses broken and the room started moving around a lot," he said. "I know from the Christchurch earthquakes how much it undermines people's confidence." He expected there to be a lot of damage with core infrastructure and roads, which would be a cost but would be covered. Key thanked emergency services around the country for their efforts overnight. A spokesman for the Fire Service said more information would be released through Twitter later in the morning. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113201800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="itv-599615b6b0aca6e11cf8a8a7a716ec79"><title>Powerful 7.4 earthquake strikes near to Christchurch</title><link>http://www.itv.com/news/2016-11-13/powerful-7-4-earthquake-strikes-near-to-christchurch/</link><description>A large 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck under 60 miles north of New Zealand's capital.

"Communications in the area are very difficult but police have the details of the truck and are keeping watch for it." A spokesperson for Christchurch-based STL Linehaul Ltd said the company had "a whole heap of drivers" in the region and was trying to track them all down. 

STL Linehaul, is a family-owned transport company that specialises in long-distance inter-island travel. Large tracts of State Highway 1 in the area are blocked by massive slips and it is understood tunnels on the road are also damaged. Camper van companies are also struggling to track down the exact location of their vehicles in the earthquake zone.

Tourism Holdings, the country's largest campervan rental company, does not have GPS tracking in all its vehicles but chief executive Grant Webster said they knew of two vans in the Kaikoura area and three in Hanmer Springs. Jucy rentals is also encouraging customers in the earthquake zone to get in touch and marketing manager Katy Medlock said they had no idea when they might be able to get them out. "Unfortunately it's something that is completely out of our control. It's in the hands of NZTA [New Zealand Transport Agency] and the police."</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114033200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-5242a412d6e4ba7228a1f585dad44dc0"><title>Pike River protest temporarily paused after earthquake</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86427602/Pike-River-protest-temporarily-paused-after-earthquake</link><description>A roadblock protest at the Pike River mine has been put on hold after the North Canterbury earthquake.

Family members of men who died in the West Coast disaster in 2010 have been occupying the mine's access road since Saturday morning. Solid Energy has been working on permanently sealing the mine to allow the area to be handed over to the Department of Conservation for inclusion in the Paparoa National Park.

The group say they will block the road to prevent any work being done until the Government and Solid Energy agree to enter the drift and search for the remains. READ MORE: 

Environment Minister Nick Smith announced on Sunday the work would be deferred for a week. Anna Osborne, whose husband Milton died ar Pike, said the roadblock would be temporarily lifted. "In the face of the national emergency and the agreement we've won to temporarily halt the sealing, we're pausing the occupation and heading down to give some support back to the friends and family. We have family members in Christchurch who had to be evacuated so we want to look after them." She had been assured by Solid Energy that no work would be done to seal the mine before the sixth anniversary of the explosion on November 19. "I see it as a huge win for us. We have received so much support and messages from people all over New Zealand. It's heart warming to know that people are starting to realise that it's not fair and the families have suffered long enough."

Smith said the work was suspended to avoid tension between Solid Energy and protesters, and also because it was "an emotional time for the families with the first stage of the mine sealing completed last week, and the sixth anniversary of the disaster next weekend". He said the protest, which intended to block machinery and vehicles from accessing the mine, did not change Solid Energy's view that re-entering the mine was unsafe. Smith said he would meet with the protesting families in Greymouth on Wednesday. Osborne said she had not heard from Smith but was aware of a planned meeting with the Pike River Families Group. The families would be gathering at the mine portal for a private memorial service at 3.44pm on November 19, followed by a public commemoration in Blackball at 6pm. The road occupation would be continuing "shortly", she said. "We will be back, and we will make John Key keep his promise. This is not over until we get justice for our boys," she said. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114024400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-7f451e2bae30cef6dced2ad0555de11f"><title>Deadly earthquake: Two dead, hundreds of aftershocks</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=11747510&amp;ref=rss</link><description>At least two people have died and several others have suffered non-fatal heart attacks and minor injuries following the 7.5 magnitude earthquake.

the 7.5 magnitude earthquake. Emergency services have confirmed one death at the Elms Homestead in Kaikoura. Three people live at the historic home. One person was able to escape, one was rescued and third has died. Relatives of the family are having trouble contacting emergency services due to congested phone lines and power cuts. A second person has died of a heart attack at a property in Mt Lyford and there are reports of several people suffering non-fatal heart attacks in the hours following the main quake. St John has activated its National Crisis Coordination Centre and has set up local Emergency Operation Centres in the South Island. A spokeswoman said St John staff, resources and emergency equipment have been relocated to higher ground, and resource is being moved to affected areas in order to maintain response capability. Casualty numbers and injury numbers are unknown at this stage.

Speaking from the Beehive's civil defence bunker, Prime Minister John Key said all 16 regions had activated civil defence requirements. Tsunami warnings replace in place for much of the East Coast where ways of up to 2m have already stuck. Key said it was important for people to keep following safety advice. He said New Zealand was in "great shape" to meet any costs from the quakes, but expected there would be significant repairs needed. He also confirm the two deaths. Acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said the pressing need was to get communications gear in to cut off areas and that would be the first task for the helicopters. He said there weren't reports of many homes or other buildings brought down. While there had been reports of items falling from shelves, some cracks in buildings and smashed windows in Wellington the true extent of property damage is being revealed as emergency service workers begin assess infrastructure and homes in the light of day. Pictures are coming in of large slips and badly damaged roads in the Hurunui District. The small North Canterbury town Waiau, where a bridge has been badly damaged, is shut off. Kaikoura has also been cut off but reports of bad damage are hard to substantiate due to power cuts, blocked roads and a congested mobile network. Military helicopters would be going there to assess damage and make contact. The Fire Service is also sending a seven-strong Urban Search And Rescue squad from Christchurch by helicopter. Assessment teams are also being sent to Waiau and Blenheim.

Shipping workers were forced to flee the Kings Wharf freight shipping terminal in Wellington, after cracks began appearing and water spurting from beneath them. "It was just panic stations," said the man who did not wish to be named. "Water was coming up from the wharf, we had about five seconds to evacuate." The man said he and seven of his colleagues all ran out together, and huddled to protect themselves in case glass or debris fell from nearby buildings. In Marlborough, emergency services are bracing themselves for an influx of calls as people see the extend of the damage. Rural fire chief Richard McNamara said there was a number of vehicles stuck on State Highway 1, and a helicopter was waiting to survey the road in daylight. "There will be a few people spending the night in their cars, I would say." He urged people not to travel unless it was urgent, because there was already congestion.

Isaac Davison (@isaac_davison) November 13, 2016 "There has been significant tidal movement in Picton and the [Marlborough] Sounds."

McNamara said welfare centres in Rarangi and Waikawa were sheltering about 100 people, including residents of a rest home. Buildings have reportedly fallen in Bleheim. "Fire crews are roving the towns and CBD of Blenheim since the earthquake assisting where they need to and will continue that throughout he day." Psychologist Nigel Latta has posted advice on social media for coping with the mental impact of the quake, particularly for children. "Reassure your little people.

Thousands of secondary school pupils are due to sit their NCEA and Scholarship exams today, but many spent a sleepless night huddled outside or in evacuation centres, or rattled by the 7.5 magnitude quake which was felt across most of the country. The New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) said this morning that exams will proceed as planned today if your school has not been earthquake affected. READ MORE:

"If it has been affected and is closed, an emergency derived grade process is available to reduce any disadvantage to students," it said in a statement. Decisions about which schools sit exams will be made by each school, NZQA said, and students and their parents are advised to contact their school directly to find out whether exams will be going ahead. There are widespread school and early childhood centre closures following the quakes. Ministry of Education deputy secretary Jerome Sheppard said they were telling schools and early childhood centres from North Canterbury to Wellington to stay closed until buildings had been checked. Continued below. Related Content Schools and early childhood centres in areas affected by tsunami warnings had also been told to stay closed while warnings were in place. A staff member at Maidstone Intermediate in Upper Hutt contacted the Herald to say the school would be closed today because they had no power. Single story buildings require a visual check for damage before being re-opened. Multi-storey buildings also need to be checked by an engineer before being re-opened, Sheppard said. If in doubt schools and early childhood centres in other areas should also remain closed, he said. Buildings should be approached with caution as there may be broken glass outside them. "As people enter buildings, they should look out for broken glass, fallen light fittings and bookshelves, and other hazards. "If there are signs of damage to a building's structure, schools should contact their Ministry property advisor." Schools and early childhood centres should also check the Civil Defence website for regular updates about their area, Sheppard said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113204500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-4a43b4103cbfdf0241a46034490fcda3"><title>Live: 7.5 New Zealand quake causes casualties, tsunamis, and destruction</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86416304/Live-7-5-New-Zealand-quake-causes-casualties-tsunamis-and-destruction</link><description>Head of GNS science explains what is understood about the origins of the earthquake so far.

Chief executive Tim Grafton said earlier this month that insurers had settled 94 per cent of all Canterbury residential property claims and 95 per cent of commercial claims. Since the earthquakes of 2010 and 2011, private insurers have paid out nearly $19 billion. "There will no doubt be another influx of claims after last night but it's far too early to be able to tell the extent of the claims and of the damage," Grafton said. "It is still just several hours afterwards and engineering assessments will need to be done. The reports we're picking up suggest that a lot of the damage will be at the minor end but there has certainly been some properties that have been more severely damaged," he said.

"It is just far too early though to have a picture of the extent of the damage and the cost of the damage." Grafton said those with damages should lodge claims with the Earthquake Commission within three months and keep in contact with private insurers. Damage should also be photographed and documented to help with the insurance process. The latest quake is the largest in the area since the 2013 quake in Seddon, Marlborough which saw more than $30 million in insurance claims.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113224500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-68e5308f14a850e41d610d573ddb47a8"><title>Earthquake: Interislander Ferry unable to dock at Picton due to damage</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86417353/Earthquake-Interislander-Ferry-unable-to-dock-at-Picton-due-to-damage</link><description>An Interislander ferry is unable to dock in Picton following a huge 7.5-magnitude earthquake, leaving passengers and crew to sleep on board.

But a decision was made to abort docking the ship after the massive quake hit North Canterbury early on Monday, triggering a tsunami alert for all coastal areas of New Zealand and many aftershocks throughout the country. The port at Picton was damaged during the quake, and the passenger bridge at the Wellington port collapsed. "We were trying to dock when they earthquake hit. The ship just shuddered," the passenger said.

"They have said we are going to be here until morning until they can assess it." The woman was unsure how far they were currently anchored from Picton, but said everyone was trying to get some rest. "Everyone is sleeping on the floor and on seats," she said. 

Port Marlborough maritime officer David Baker said engineers would inspect the port in daylight before ships could use it. Tory Channel, one of two entrances to the Queen Charlotte Sound, was also closed due to the tsunami warning. Large rises and dips in the tide could cause issues for ships in small channel, Baker said. He expected only a small number of passengers to be on board the Interislander's ship, Kaiarahi. Another Interislander ship was anchored away from the damaged Wellington wharf, although no passengers were on board, a Kiwi Rail spokeswoman said. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113175300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="newshub-770c59fe57950ab68b93482f196ec362"><title>'Dayum son!'

A passenger on board the Kaiarahi, who did not want to be named, said they were due into Picton at 11.45pm on Sunday night. But a decision was made to abort docking the ship after the massive quake hit North Canterbury early on Monday, triggering a tsunami alert for all coastal areas of New Zealand and many aftershocks throughout the country. The port at Picton was damaged during the quake.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114001900</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-1be1eb2bb61c385ab3da152523667580"><title>Exam chaos: Takapuna Grammar students begin scholarship history exam before being sent home because of earthquake</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=11747656&amp;ref=rss</link><description>Students at an Auckland school were 20 minutes into their history scholarship exam this morning before it was cancelled.

However, students in at least one school began to take the exam before they were told it had been cancelled. One parent of a Takapuna Grammar Year 13 student who sat the history scholarship exam today said they were 20 minutes in and had seen the questions before they were told to go home. "One of the students apparently ... said to the invigilator, 'the scholarship exam's off', and the invigilator said, 'no, no that's still going ahead, sit down and start'," she said. "Then someone else came in about 20 minutes later and all the kids knew straight away what they were in for. Continued below. Related Content "It's a bit of a cock-up all round, because we don't know what will happen now. Those kids have seen the paper." The students were sent home without any advice on what would happen next, she said. "They were just told to go home." She contacted NZQA and its initial response was that no student would have seen the paper, she said. Following questions from the Herald , NZQA said it would provide a new paper for all history scholarship students to sit. Management at the exam body were expecting that some students may see the exam questions "because of the short notice" given before it was postponed, a spokeswoman said. A new paper would be issued to schools. No date has yet been set for the re-sit. It is not yet known how many schools continued with the exam, or how many students may have seen the questions before they were sent home, NZQA said. Takapuna Grammar principal Mary Nixon was not immediately available for comment.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114004600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="globalnews-a09721dcfdc005f7ca47b0fdf12bfa82"><title>Tsunami hits New Zealand after series of strong quakes</title><link>http://globalnews.ca/video/3064044/tsunami-hits-new-zealand-after-series-of-strong-quakes/</link><description>.

The tsunami was described by the ministry as "an event of life-threatening or national significance". The quake was 7.8-magnitude and hit just midnight local time, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS).

The civil defence warned that waves could reach two metres and last for at least two hours. The service tweeted: "A tsunami has been generated, the first wave has arrived in the North Eastern Coast of the South Island." It added: "The first wave may not be the largest. Waves may continue for several hours. "If you are in a low lying area on the East Coast of the North, South or Chatham Islands move immediately to higher ground."

There were reports of traffic jams as people attempted to flee low lying coastal areas. The country's 111 emergency service was also down for at least ten minutes in some areas and many areas reported power cuts. New Zealand's Geonet, which describes itself as the official source of geological hazard information for the country, listed dozens of quakes between 6.6 and 3.8 after 12.02am local time.

Hugh Sintes, who lives in Christchurch, told Sky News: "My wife had gone off to the bathroom, I had just lay down on my bed and all of all of a sudden the bed started wobbling and it got more and more intense. "And I thought 'okay this is getting a bit serious'. It continued on and on - it got quite concerning." The relatively shallow first quake occurred at a depth of six miles (10km).

Nearly seven hours after the first quake struck, Prime Minister John Key confirmed two fatalities, saying “we cannot rule out” that number will rise. “At this point we are unable to give precise details of what caused those fatalities,” Key said, adding that communication problems made it difficult to get information from the affected areas of the South Island. As tsunami warning sirens were activated in South Island coastal towns and along the east coast of the North Island, police and emergency workers went door-to-door to evacuate seaside properties. A “destructive tsunami" with waves up to five metres (16 feet) was possible, the ministry of civil defence, responsible for emergency management in New Zealand, said in a bulletin. Some early waves were up to two-metres but civil defence warned they could intensify and described the tsunami as “an event of life-threatening or national significance”. Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee told a media briefing he had received reports of casualties near the South Island coastal town of Kaikoura but details were unclear.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113220000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="9news-2d5698e09265188bfa5f3009da696ada" duplicate="9news-412b00009f328854e09864a369d9630e"><title>Two dead after quake hits NZ: PM Key</title><link>http://www.9news.com.au/world/2016/11/14/00/35/tsunami-warning-after-quake-hits-nz</link><description>New Zealand Prime Minister John Key has confirmed two people are dead after a massive 7.5 magnitude earthquake struck New Zealand.

READ MORE:

Anyone in those areas should immediately move to high ground or inland as far as possible. The first wave may not be the largest, and more waves may hit the east coast of the North, South, and Chatham Islands. "Take your getaway kit with you if possible and pets if you can do so safely. If evacuation maps are present, follow the routes shown. "Walk or bike if possible and drive only if essential. If driving, keep going once you are well outside the evacuation zone to allow room for others behind you. "If you cannot escape the tsunami, go to an upper storey of a sturdy building or climb onto a roof or up a tree, or grab a floating object and hang on until help arrives.

"Boats are usually safer in water deeper than 20 metres than if they are on the shore. Move boats out to sea only if there is time and it is safe to do so." 111, ELECTRICITY. The 111 emergency service was briefly knocked out following the quake, but has now been restored. If you have trouble phoning 111, contact Power is out in many places in the North Island, including Wellington, Palmerston North, Whanganui, Taihape, Hawera and New Plymouth. Disruptions were also expected to train services and the Interislander ferry. More information was expected about 2.30am. ROAD CLOSURES. The New Zealand Transport Agency said State Highway 7 is closed between Waipara and Springs Junction due to earthquake damage. People were advised to delay their travel between Picton and Christchurch and over the Lewis Pass. Cheviot ward councillor Vince Daly said State Highway 1, up from Goose Bay on the boundary between the Hurunui and Kaikoura districts, was "impassable". "I wouldn't advise people to travel north of Cheviot. There are big cracks in the road - the road's just opened up." TRAINS SUSPENDED, FERRIES CANCELLED. KiwiRail said all trains throughout the South Island, and in the North Island south of Palmerston North on the main trunk line, have been cancelled until further notice. Ferry sailings have been cancelled until a full assessment can be made of the terminals in Wellington and Picton. That was unlikely to happen until daylight hours. The Kaiarahi ferry is currently standing off Picton and the Kaitaki and Aratere are at anchor in the Wellington Harbour. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113144100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-2dc0b56870facd372b8c94b89e901df3"><title>Prime Minister John Key cancels trip to Argentina following earthquake</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=11747662&amp;ref=rss</link><description>Prime Minister John Key has today cancelled his trip to Argentina because of the earthquakes but intends to travel to Peru later this week for Apec if circumstances permit.

As a result of this morning's earthquake, Key has made the decision to postpone his visit to Argentina. "The situation is still unfolding and we don't yet know the full extent of the damage," Key says. "I believe it is better that I remain in New Zealand in the coming days to offer my assistance and support until we have a better understanding of the event's full impact.

But a decision was made to abort docking the ship after a severe 7.5 magnitude earthquake hit North Canterbury early on Monday, and a tsunami alert was issued for all coastal areas of New Zealand. It is understood the port at Picton was damaged during the quake, and the passenger bridge at the Wellington port has collapsed. "We were trying to dock when they earthquake hit. The ship just shuddered," the passenger said.

"They have said we are going to be here until morning until they can asses it." The woman was unsure how far they were currently anchored from Picton, but said everyone was trying to get some rest.

Many people from as far afield as Wellington to Dunedin felt the quake. In Wellington, sirens can be heard and people are on the street crying. New Zealand Civil Defence just tweeted that it is "assessing [the] situation with assistance of scientific advisors and civil defence groups". There are reports that houses in Cheviot, near where the quake was centred in Canterbury, are badly affected by the shake. That was a very large shake. We are now looking into the shake and will be with you all shortly with info.

"I think the shaking woke us up. It's hard to describe how it felt because we're Aussies and haven't felt anything like this ever before." Ms Stothers said she jumped out of bed and "very clumsily" ran under her bedroom doorway. "Then when we realised it was still going, we made a run for the dining room table," she said. "It was really hard to walk, kind of like walking in a plane going through light turbulence. I guess that's the closest thing I could relate it to, turbulence in a plane. Ms Stothers' husband, Josh, said both felt queasy afterwards. "It feels like motion sickness," he said.

Port operations in Napier, Wellington and Christchurch were all hit by the quake, centred near Hamner Springs in the Hurunui district, which has also cut power across parts of the lower North Island and upper South Island, disrupted rail and ferry services across the country and shut down the capital's CBD. The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management says there is still a tsunami marine and beach threat from Napier to north of Dunedin, Cook Straight coastal areas and the Chatham Islands, but has lifted its warning for other regions. Christchurch's Lyttelton Port Co, which embarked on a long-term redevelopment plan after the 2011 earthquakes, has re-opened some operations, receiving and delivering freight and cargo including logs and cars, and hasn't found any major concerns in its inspections so far, it said in a statement on its website.

"The railway line south of Christchurch is open, as is the Rolleston to Christchurch route. However, the Christchurch to Port route remains closed and we are awaiting further updates from KiwiRail," it said. Napier Port closed while the tsunami warning was in place, and the sole boat in port, a fishing vessel, was sent out to the harbour, a spokeswoman said in an emailed statement. "Operations resumed early this morning and we are monitoring the wave activity closely," she said. "Our engineers are undertaking a full assessment of our infrastructure, including hydrographic surveys of the inner port and shipping channel, and early indications are that the port has not sustained any damage." State-owned rail operator KiwiRail, which runs the inter-island ferry service, says Wellington's ports have sustained damage, though council-owned operator CentrePort, which was damaged during the 2013 quakes centred in the upper South Island, has yet to comment, and Timaru's PrimePort evacuated staff in the early hours of the morning, according to a Timaru Herald report.

Related Content Dunedin's Port of Otago said it hasn't faced any disruptions from the quake or tsunami warning, while Bluff-based South Port New Zealand wasn't immediately available for comment. Some courier deliveries are continuing today although road damage will impact freight over the coming days. Dean Bracewell, managing director at courier company Freightways, said the company is still learning about what the impact of this morning's earthquakes means for its business, and most importantly all its employees are safe. Freightways' information management facilities are fine with no obvious damage, Bracewell said, and courier deliveries are happening "largely as per normal" today. Inter-Islander freight has been delayed as the ferry services have been suspended, while Freightways' Christchurch air freight is continuing as per normal with the airport open. "We have a range of contingencies to put in place for Christchurch, Nelson, Blenheim and the top of the South Island where road access had been most impacted, and we are in the hands of the authorities about that access," Bracewell said. Transport and logistics group Mainfreight said rail services in the lower North Island and South Island have been suspended pending track inspections, while Inter-Island rail services have been cancelled until further notice. "Where practical we will endeavour to provide limited delivery services for freight already in our Wellington and Christchurch depots," the company said in a statement on its website. "To avoid unnecessary congestion at this time whilst connections into these regions have been severely impacted we advise early that we will suspend collecting general freight destined for these two regions and outlaying districts until further notice. "Our teams will look to prioritise the movement of critical supplies such as food as options emerge. Our operational teams are currently surveying all possible options to navigate network blockages as information comes available." State-owned rail operator KiwiRail, which runs the inter-island ferry service, has said Wellington's ports have sustained damage. Council-owned operator CentrePort, which was damaged during the 2013 quakes centred in the upper South Island, has yet to comment.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114014600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="voxy-7e063c76b3ae24af2627ece434a40e68"><title>Quakes 'highlight need for Wellington-Lyttelton ferry service'</title><link>http://www.voxy.co.nz/politics/5/268223</link><description>Democrats for Social Credit Party leader Stephnie de Ruyter says the Government should support the reopening of a ferry service between Wellington and Lyttleton.

Today’s earthquake highlights the need for such a service with main road and rail links in the upper South island being severely disrupted. The Party has retained a long held commitment in its policy for investigations into re-instating the ferry service. The latest event vindicates its retention and demonstrates again that use of common sense policies, outside the tight frame of old-party structure, can point the way to governing New Zealand for people rather than big business. At the Party’s 2016 Conference held in Christchurch just last month delegates pointed out that as the trucking traffic increases in volume south of Blenheim, light traffic will have problems getting through and that alone justified retaining the policy. In case of a natural disaster, such as this earthquake, the ferry service is an absolute essential. Ms de Ruyter expressed her sympathy to the thousands of people who have been affected, and said the potential for further disasters of this type is high with increasing climate change.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114015600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="rnzi-f84726c7b30ae2b31cfde0a04a66ecd2"><title>LIVE: Aftershocks continue after 7.5-magnitude quake</title><link>http://www.radionz.co.nz/news/national/318002/live-aftershocks-continue-after-7-point-5-magnitude-quake</link><description>A severe earthquake has hit New Zealand.

John Hare, the Christchurch-headquartered national chief executive of engineering specialists Holmes Consulting Group, said he was worried about structural damage to the towers and predicted more quakes of magnitudes 6 and 7, falling away to magnitude 5 and 6 quakes. "I'm concerned about Wellington and the tall buildings. The duration of the event has a big effect on tall buildings. The longer strong shaking goes on, the more these blocks would get a bit of a swing on. "You could expect buildings to move 20cm to 30cm in each direction with that sort of earthquake and the amount of damage will vary between the buildings due to the type of building and its height.

"Some of the taller buildings in Wellington should be looked at closely because they gradually build up momentum. It's like pushing a kid on a swing. The building is rigid but the more it moves, the greater the stress being put on the joints. We could see more severe damage. We'll be checking stairwells, lift wells, support walls, ceiling spaces and joints between all the beams and columns," said Hare who was the former technical director of Holmes but took leave to become principal engineering advisor at the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority in 2011 for two years. In 2013 he won an Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand award and has held senior leadership and governance roles within Holmes, as well as sitting on a number of advisory boards and committees. Scott Pritchard, Precinct chief executive, said damage had already been discovered to two tall blocks on The Terrace. Engineers from Holmes would be engaged to check all Precinct's Wellington buildings, Pritchard said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113214500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="9news-451bb2f281904b63e4a1dfcbc86061f3"><title>Severe aftershocks strike NZ South Island</title><link>http://www.9news.com.au/world/2016/11/14/12/14/severe-aftershocks-strike-nz-south-island</link><description>Two large aftershocks - including one measuring 6.3 - have struck towns already cut off by a magnitude 7.5 earthquake that's claimed two lives, caused major landslips and destroyed highways in New Zealand's South Island.

That earthquake was almost instantly followed by a magnitude 6.3, 30 kilometres north of Cheviot. The area has been subject to a steady stream of aftershocks since the 7.5 magnitude quake centred near Hamner Springs just after midnight.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114023200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-da5a16aaa32c36b906002ca6d2f6c272"><title>Deadly earthquake: Days before Kaikoura's water supply restored</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=11747751&amp;ref=rss</link><description>Power is gradually being restored in Kaikoura, but sewerage systems and water supplies are still down and it could before they are back up and running, Civil Defence says.

Power, communications, sewerage and water were all cut off by a colossal earthquake, which shook the town early this morning. There was still no way in or out of the town by land. Emergency services from Nelson and Christchurch were airlifted in to help local response teams. Civil Defence was considering using private bores to supply water and urged residents to conserve water. One person died after a historic Kaikoura homestead collapsed when the quake hit at 12.02am this morning. He was believed to be Louis Edgar, who lived at the house with his wife Pam.

A Fire Service spokesman said a man had died at the property, but two woman, one of whom was 100-years-old, were rescued from the rubble. Police radio communication systems were working and cellphone networks would soon be live again. Four police officers were flown to Kaikoura from Nelson and more officers were standing by to travel to the town tomorrow if needed. Shops were closed and locals could not buy food, fuel or water this afternoon. Continued below. Related Content Their are around 1000 tourists in the town, Civil Defence said. Police were rescuing travellers trapped in the town's northern and southern outskirts. The occupants of at least six campervans in Kaikoura's north would be airlifted to the Ward Welfare Centre and the people stranded just south of the town would be flown further south. A New Zealand Fire Service spokesman said a six-strong Urban Search And Rescue squad were sent from Christchurch. The team touched down in Kaikoura around 12pm, but no further information was available because communications were poor, he said.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114034700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="krmg-cfabf9a4f022b759be87f007d3bc95d1" duplicate="siouxcityjournal-efa14f227bd64e1c7b678bf3f3c92212"><title>10 Things to Know for Monday</title><link>http://www.krmg.com/ap/ap/top-news/10-things-to-know-for-monday/pDd8rH/</link><description>Motorway sign warning of Tsunami, in Wellington, Monday, Nov. 14, 2016, after a major earthquake struck New Zealand's south Island early Monday.

Commentators say it is a sign of the changing workplace environment – and the increasing expectation on staff to be available all day, every day. In Wellington in particular, workers are shunning the central business district in favour of working on their laptops and smartphones at home.

The 7.5 magnitude quake was centred in North Canterbury but was felt through much of the country. READ MORE: Live: 7.5 New Zealand quake causes casualties, tsunamis, and destruction BusinessNZ chief executive Kirk Hope said it was now common for businesses to encourage workers to log in from home instead of coming into the office in situations such as this. "In Wellington, for example, no one is working in the CBD until the engineers have been able to go through and assess whether there is significant damage." He said most employers had been through similar events a number of times and had plans to handle it. "It depends on the nature of the business. In many technology businesses they probably have flexible working arrangements in any case, to minimise office costs. But those selling goods, until they get building clearance they will be challenged if they are a store-front only." University of Auckland management professor Elizabeth George agreed working from home was many businesses' back-up plan.

"Given the nature of work, which technology enables us to do wherever we are, the logical response is to work from home." She said it would also help workers who did not want to leave home out of safety concerns, or because their children were not going to school. "The key is giving people information about what the plans are." But she said it was a sign of changing demands on workers. Ten years ago, when a natural disaster hit, those workers would probably have had the day off if their office was inaccessible. "Ten years ago they could have had a weekend," George said. "Now we're all attached to our mobiles and on call 24/7. This response reflects the changing expectations of businesses." Hope said it was up to employers and employees to navigate what they thought was reasonable. E Tu union's director of industries Ged O'Connell said there would be a range of responses to a traumatic event such as a large earthquake. He said many people wanted to continue to do their best at work– and taking people off the roads and allowing them to work from home could make clean-up work easier. But he said it needed to be recognised that some might feel traumatised. "Even though they may not have suffered damage, it's quite an event to work through or live through." Psychologist Sara Chatwin, of MindWorks, said some people could find working from home a good distraction. "For others it might be too much to ask." Canterbury Employers' Chamber of Commerce chief executive Peter Townsend said there was little disruption for Christchurch workers and most were continuing as normal. "A few buildings are being checked out by engineers but most of the damage was north of Christchurch." - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114033200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="trust-80ccbe1b2216093d057a4eb6922b4975"><title>A four-wheel-drive vehicle negotiates the damaged State Highway One near the town of Ward, south of Blenheim, following an earthquake on New Zealand's South Island</title><link>http://news.trust.org/item/20161113235853-lcpli/?source=spotnewsfeed</link><description>, November 14, 2016.

The small North Canterbury township of Waiau is feared to be worst hit following the 7.5 magnitude earthquake in the early hours of this morning. Power is out and phone lines are down but the potted information coming into Cheviot police and fire is that it has received widespread damage. The violent shaking ripped open the roads and badly damaged the main bridge, which as reportedly sunk by as much as 400mm. There are reports of casualties in Kaikoura but details are yet to be confirmed. St John is sending its command unit towards Kaikoura and additional paramedics tare being flown to Hanmer Springs and Kaikoura by rescue helicopter as a precautionary measure.</emm:text><sortelement

a heart attack, another was killed in a historic homestead in Canterbury • Residents flee homes in the wake of tsunami threat - police now investigating three cases in which vacant houses were

Emergency services have confirmed one death at the Elms Homestead in Kaikoura. Three people live at the historic home. One person was able to escape, one was rescued and third has died. Relatives of the family are having trouble contacting emergency services due to congested phone lines and power cuts. A second person has died of a heart attack at a property in Mt Lyford and there are reports of several people suffering non-fatal heart attacks in the hours following the main quake. St John has activated its National Crisis Coordination Centre and has set up local Emergency Operation Centres in the South Island. A spokeswoman said St John staff, resources and emergency equipment have been relocated to higher ground, and resource is being moved to affected areas in order to maintain response capability. Casualty numbers and injury numbers are unknown at this stage. Speaking from the Beehive's civil defence bunker, Prime Minister John Key said all 16 regions had activated civil defence requirements. Tsunami warnings replace in place for much of the East Coast where ways of up to 2m have already stuck. Key said it was important for people to keep following safety advice. He said New Zealand was in "great shape" to meet any costs from the quakes, but expected there would be significant repairs needed. He also confirm the two deaths. Acting Civil Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee said the pressing need was to get communications gear in to cut off areas and that would be the first task for the helicopters. He said there weren't reports of many homes or other buildings brought down. While there had been reports of items falling from shelves, some cracks in buildings and smashed windows in Wellington the true extent of property damage is being revealed as emergency service workers begin assess infrastructure and homes in the light of day.

Kaikoura has also been cut off but reports of bad damage are hard to substantiate due to power cuts, blocked roads and a congested mobile network. Military helicopters would be going there to assess damage and make contact. The Fire Service is also sending a seven-strong Urban Search And Rescue squad from Christchurch by helicopter. Assessment teams are also being sent to Waiau and Blenheim. In Wellington the TSB Arena and BNZ Centre have sustained the most damage. There is damage to wharves and the Inter Islander terminal, and the Tory Channel remained closed.

Shipping workers were forced to flee the Kings Wharf freight shipping terminal in Wellington, after cracks began appearing and water spurting from beneath them. "It was just panic stations," said the man who did not wish to be named. "Water was coming up from the wharf, we had about five seconds to evacuate." The man said he and seven of his colleagues all ran out together, and huddled to protect themselves in case glass or debris fell from nearby buildings. In Marlborough, emergency services are bracing themselves for an influx of calls as people see the extend of the damage.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113230100</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-699c202449ee16e09b4a7124ceddb386"><title>Earthquake prompts petition for tsunami sirens</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=11747557&amp;ref=rss</link><description>Brooke Ion, from Papamoa, was concerned to wake up this morning and discover she should have headed to high ground four hours earlier.

Photo/supplied.

A petition and a Facebook page have been set up for Papamoa residents asking for tsunami warning sirens to be installed. A new Facebook page named " Let's get Papamoa Tsunami sirens " was created this morning following concerns raised by locals that they did not wake up to text message alerts. The page posted: "Until the November 14th tsunami evacuation scare, I believed that the sirens at the Paxton Road Fire station would sound the sirens in a event of a tsunami evacuation. I was wrong and this is not the case. "The fire station have no control over the sirens therefore they would not sound in an event of us needing to evacuate. "People did not wake up to the text messages and if phone lines and communication is down then what are we to rely on.

"Our community need sirens so let's work together as a community and make this happen!" Just an hour after the page was created, more than 200 people had joined it. Soon after, a Change.org petition named " Papamoa &amp; Mount Maunganui NEEDS tsunami sirens! " was created and was quickly gathering signatures. Mount Maunganui resident Ian Evans was disturbed to wake up for work this morning and discover he had slept through a large earthquake and the text messages from Civil Defence that followed.

"I'm not a New Zealander, I've lived here 18 months so earthquakes, tsunami, volcanoes, that sort of stuff I take seriously. "Texts in theory are a good idea, but they didn't work." Felt reports generated on GeoNet from around the Western Bay of Plenty. Image/GeoNet. He was concerned enough to message Civil Defence, and got back a message saying if you feel a strong earthquake, head to higher ground. But he did not feel the earthquake. "And what happens if it's an earthquake too far away to feel that sets off a tsunami? Mr Evans said the same thing happened to him the last time a tsunami alert was issued. "In theory, a mass text alert an email is a good idea, but when you need to wake people up in the middle of the night, text messages aren't going to cut the mustard." Mr Evans said sirens would be the best option as "old-school technology is sometimes the better option".

"I slept right through it then went on Facebook and saw nothing but evacuation posts, it's pretty worrying! Especially because my partner and I live two minutes from the beach. "I've been woken up by fire station sirens, but never by a text message. We also live in the bottom floor of a house so our chances of risk are increased, I feel." Waihi beach resident Emma Pollard said while the township had warning sirens, she was concerned they were not utilised immediately and residents received text messages first. Our phones are generally on silent overnight as are most people's, so was surprised the siren wasn't used first. "I understand for [Civil Defence] they heard of the downgrade just before sounding sirens, however we were still in process of evacuating our three young children alerted by a friend's phone call. "They didn't text the downgrade til 40 mins or so later. Slightly concerning that texting was used first overnight."

Bay of Plenty Civil Defence said on their Facebook page: ''It is important people know the natural warning signs. "If there is an earthquake that lasts longer than a minute or is strong enough to knock, this is the natural warning to head inland or to higher ground. "There is no other alerting tool that can reach everyone everywhere.'' What is Tauranga City Council doing about tsunami evacuation planning? Tauranga City Council's tsunami planning has been informed by leading tsunami research. What have we learned about tsunami in our region? - We know where a worst-case tsunami is predicted to go, how deep it will be and how fast it will get there. - We know that there will be crippling traffic jams as people try to get away from the tsunami. Evacuation by foot is best. - We know that even from Papamoa it is possible to reach safe areas on foot before the tsunami floodwater reaches you, so long as you don't wait too long after the initial earthquake. - This knowledge has enabled us to develop an evacuation strategy and start building evacuation infrastructure to make sure that you can get to safety as easily as possible. The first evacuation maps were published in 2014 so that the community can plan their evacuation. In 2016 we installed evacuation signs. New structures that have been built include earthquake-proof bridges to get people over the Papamoa open drain and Wairakei Stream, and a purpose-built vertical evacuation safe location on Gordon Spratt Reserve. This is the first of four such structures that are planned and budgeted for. - Tauranga City Council website.

Brooke Bath said just before 3am that aftershocks were continuing to hit Christchurch about every 10 minutes. "It's still a decent shake. They're rattling the doors, but nothing is [like] what it was. I think when [the quake] first hit it must have gone on for about a minute." HANMER SPRINGS AND AROUND Hurunui locals are trying to get into Waiau to check on family and friends left isolated after the initial earthquake. Christchurch student April Clarke spent the early hours of the morning trying to get in touch with friends in the town. She hasn't been able to contact anyone. "There are six people in Waiau nobody can get a hold of," Clarke said. Corey Odonnell tried driving to Waiau, but parts of the road appeared to be impassable. Fallen farm buildings are scattered along the road from Culverden to Waiau. Waiau, a town on State Highway 70, is only a few kilometres east of the original quake's epicentre. Power and telephone services appeared to be down for the town. Landslips were blocking parts of State Highway Seven between Waipara and Springs Junction, a Hurunui District Council spokeswoman said. There were also reports of damaged bridges on roads near Hanmer and Waiau, she said. Buildings had also been damaged in the area. Jane Thompson, who lives near Cheviot in North Canterbury, said it was a "long, rolling earthquake". She had spoken to some residents in the Cheviot township and heard reports of minor damage. "We are eight kilometres from coast so are staying put," she said. Hanmer Springs Civil Defence coordinator David Smith said people in the North Canterbury town were "looking after each other". "Daylight will give another view on things but the village has been checked, the fire brigade have done a thorough drive around all the village and basically the only damage we are aware of is a broken water main pipe at Queen Mary Hospital." Civil Defence have advised all evacuated coastal towns in the Hurunui district are to remain closed until further notice. All residents on the Cheviot water scheme and rural water schemes have been asked to conserve water, and should continue to boil water as a precautionary measure. Spark's cellphone network is down in the Waiau area, and power is out in the Hanmer Springs, Culverden and Cheviot areas. MARLBOROUGH AND NELSON. Around 2000 people are still without power in Marlborough following the earthquake. Marlborough Lines operations manager Brian Tapp said at 4am that there was no power in Seddon, Ward, the Awatere Valley or anywhere south to Clarence Bridge. Because of the reports of damaged houses in Seddon, Tapp said the lines company was hesitant to switch power back on remotely. Their 33,000 volt line north of Ward had been damaged, and there reports of wires breaking, he said. Affected residents would have to wait until morning, when engineers were better able to assess the damage, before there was a clearer idea of when power would be restored. Marlborough Kaikoura Rural Fire Authority principal rural fire officer Richard McNamara advised people to head for higher ground as there was a tsunami warning in place. "If it's long and strong, be gone," he said. "At this stage there's a tsunami threat so our advice is to move to higher ground." "There has been damage, the scale and size we're unsure of at this stage. There is damage to infrastructure, council staff are currently assessing that." Residents of the small settlements north of Blenheim are being moved to higher ground, a Marlborough District Council spokeswoman said. An evacuation centre had been opened at the Tuamarina Hall following the tsunami warning. Marlborough Civil Defence controller Richard McNamara said fire crews, DOC staff and police were working together. Residents of the lower Wairau plain east of State Highway 1 were being advised to move to higher ground. SH1 is closed at Ward with damage reported at the Ure Bridge. A road block is in place just north of Blenheim, at Riverlands, and people are being urged to keep off the road if possible. Bridges at Spring Creek and near Tuamarina are also closed, while damage is assessed. Emergency staff are door-knocking at Seddon, south of Blenheim, however there is no report of damage to the area yet. The Marlborough harbourmaster has closed Tory Channel to shipping until more advice is received on the impact of the tsunami. McNamara said it will be daylight before there is a full assessment of damage and in the meantime people are urged to stay off the roads and conserve water. Nelson resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". The former Christchurch resident said it was a much longer, more rolling motion than the 2010 Canterbury quake. Davis, who lives in the central city suburb of The Wood, said she was surprised there appeared to be no damage to the house. "It really shook for a long time." BLENHEIM. There is some damage in central Blenheim, with shop windows broken. Blenheim Volunteer Fire Station is cordoned off, and firefighters are on high alert. Some families have packed their emergency kits in their cars in preparation to leave. Blenheim Countdown store manager Liz Nelson said the earthquake had knocked a lot of stock off the shelves. The night fill and pricing teams that were in the store at the time were all okay, and had gathered outside the building following the earthquake. "There's a bit of damage on the back wall, cracks in the plaster, but mostly it's stock on the floor," she said. There were unconfirmed reports of looting. A police officer that stopped at the Countdown told staff about potential looting at a nearby chemist. Blenheim resident Gemma Adams said she was lying in bed when she started to feel the bed swaying. The length of the earthquake made it terrifying, Adams said. "We were lying there going, 'what do we do, what do we do'." Adams and her partner ran to the kitchen and got under the table. Electricity is out between Ward and Seddon and also in other pockets around Blenheim and surrounding townships. HAWKE'S BAY AND GISBORNE. Hundreds of people in low-lying areas in Hawke's Bay and the Gisborne-East Coast evacuated following the quake. About 300 people gathered at Haumoana School after fleeing the coastal settlements of Haumoana and Te Awanga. The tsunami threat was reduced to beach and marine only at 6am and residents were cleared to go home but told they must stay of the beaches. While the quake was widely felt, there were no reports of damage in Hawke's Bay or Gisborne. Hawke's Bay civil defence emergency management group, group controller Ian Macdonald said most people self-evacuated. "We just had to just evacuate some areas very close to beach at Haumoana, Te Awanga and on the Mahia peninsula," Macdonald said. "A lot more people self-evacuated than did at the Te Araroa quake at the beginning of September, and that's great because tsunamis will come very quickly if we get them," Macdonald said. He said a 20cm wave was recorded at Napier Port at about 3am, and this was believed to have been caused by the earthquake. MacDonald said sirens were not activated as the evacuation zone was very small and "we didn't want to evacuate entire areas". "Those needing evacuation were individually door-knocked," he said. WAIKATO AND BAY OF PLENTY. The tsunami warning for Waikato and Bay of Plenty has been lowered to a marine and beach threat, but Civil Defence are warning that could change. For now, though, residents can return home but are being asked to stay off the beaches and away from waterways. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it. Hataitai resident and reporter Rachel Thomas said her flatmates woke up to their weatherboard house groaning. "Our cockatiel fell off his perch. The aftershocks just keep coming. Three of us are huddling under the kitchen table in our dressing gowns with a trembling bird in between." Power and phones were out in Waikanae on the Kapiti Coast. TARANAKI. Thousands of people are without electricity in New Plymouth, Stratford, Eltham and Hawera. Some powerlines are down and power may not be restored until the morning in some areas. Many residents have taken to Facebook to say they were woken and scared by the quake and that aftershocks are still being felt. AUCKLAND. The quake was felt in Auckland, including at Middlemore Hospital, where patients were sent running from their beds. Auckland Civil Defence Emergency Management controller John Dragicevich said there was no immediate tsunami threat to Auckland but there was still a standard warning in place for people near marine areas. That including keeping an eye out for changes in the sea and moving to higher ground if necessary. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113193000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="ekantipur-58524e4ec395b9ffe53202850513e868"><title>Heritage in Danger</title><link>http://kathmandupost.ekantipur.com/news/2016-11-12/heritage-in-danger.html</link><description>Nov 12, 2016- In Patan Durbar, a perimeter fence has gone up around Mani Mandap for its reconstruction.

Soon the navakunda traditional foundation of this important representative of the sixteen pillared mandap buildings will be expunged and replaced by a steel-grillage footing. Its timber posts will be fixed to the base stones directly using steel bolts, discarding the lakasi grid interface--traditionally used to connect the pillars in such open-pillared buildings--thereby demeaning and killing the structural sense of the traditional construction system. The timber joinery, developed by the Newar craftsmen with over thousands of years of experience in detailing to absorb earthquakes--such as wedged mortise and tenon, chukul, and dowels so excellently brought together in the construction of its lakasi-tham-meth-nina system frame--will be rendered toothless and rigidified with a set of bolted-through steel cleat plates! This three pronged stake is ready to be driven cruelly into the very heart of Newar traditions of materials, technology and architecture of the illustrious mandap style heralded by the seventh century Kashthamandap, which gave name to Nepal valley itself! This attack on our heritage by the saviours of the modern era is not a new thing. Foreign experts have always had their say in similar ‘conservation’ solutions for Nepali heritage. With no alternative to foreign aid for reconstruction after the 2015 earthquake, the foreign expertise slap will probably go on. This started even before our heritage was inscribed by UNESCO as Kathmandu Valley World Heritage: UNESCO gave a grant gift to Nepal on the coronation of King Birendra for the restoration of Lohn Chowk of Hanumandhoka Durbar and its tower. It came with the expertise also. The experts decided that the Lohn Chowk needed Reinforced Concrete Ring beams all round its terrace and a set of RCC beans to strengthen the corner supports of Basantapur tower at its south-west. These modern materials and technology intrusions were argued as the way to improve the performance of defective material and technology system components in our architecture despite calls, albeit from other foreigners too, to stop the use of cement. How much this intrusion of expunging the timber sense of traditional Newar construction practice cost the nine-storey Basantapur Tower and the terraces of Lohn Chowk in the Gorkha Earthquake is there for us all to see. The force of earthquake collected by the rigidity and asymmetry introduced through the use of incompatible and ‘strong’ modern material and technology hammered even harder at Basantpur Tower, inflicting damage greater than what the earthquake would have otherwise done. And, when a reconstruction gift made by Germany was implemented, the river-boulder-mat foundation of Chyasilin Mandap (1988) was taken out and replaced with a concrete grid mat, four of its sixteen timber pillars making the core of the sohrakhutte mandap was replaced with steel encased in concrete and lime plaster, and used steel frames and trusses to throw away our very own flexible structural system and timber joinery in the floor and roofs. There were no ears to heed to the calls for use of local materials and methods. The reconstruction’s audacious design aiming to ‘pay tribute to the modern era’ had turned, the prayer pavilion of Queen Lalmati, celebrated by King Jitamitra Malla with a poem inscribed in stone therein, into a Kohl monument, to borrow the term Bhaktapur heritage community loved to use in private. It had hurt the cultural sentiments of Bhaktapur so badly that the municipality vowed to reconstruct the 55 Windowed Palace differently. Of course, this is now history made in fifteen years of continuously struggling to put traditional materials and methods in priority for the reconstruction and shed off the international expertise that sought to put steel frames and concrete diaphragms into the palace as another tribute to modern engineering. The restoration of 55 Windowed Palace was completed in 2008 by Nepali professionals staying within the Newar architectural, structural and crafts vocabulary and with Nepali money. The response of this building to the 2015 Gorkha earthquake proves beyond doubt that our ancestors were not so dumb and the conservation work is a tribute to the Newar prowess in building earthquake absorbent structures. But the power of money and expertise of this kind were exercised more forcefully elsewhere and we ‘reconstructed’ the east wing of Keshav Narayan Chowk of the Patan Durbar as if the grand architecture of Yognarendra Malla was more worthy of contempt and reprimand and a flaunting of post-Victorian Neo-classicism was the order of the modern day there. Steel columns replaced timber posts and steel trusses replaced our roof structure. When the issues were raised in an international meeting called by UNESCO to review the same, our very own archaeology department, charged with the authority of the state party for heritage conservation, expunged even the mention of it from its declaration. Overnight the powers that had rewritten the declaration of the conference into a floral tribute to the expertise! A visit to the closed-off second floor of the Patan Museum, which is what Keshav Narayan Chowk is after fully erasing Yog Narendra Malla’s memory, will show to anyone what happened with 2015 earthquake at the joint between the rigidity of the industrial knowledge and the flexible natural materials and structural system of Newar architecture. Between Chyasilin Mandap and Mani Mandap, there is Kashthamandap. This reconstruction promised to be different, in that its announcement as a ‘national prestige project’ brought an outpouring of community interest: as many as 131 representatives thronged into an early meeting called to develop a coordinated approach. The restoration design, which initially used laminated timber with steel ties and cement mortar in the superstructure and sought to introduce timber piles to strengthen its navakunda foundations; met with strong objections primarily from the affected ethnic community. Several crowded uproarious meetings later, a revised reconstruction plan conforming to the DOA guidelines and the principle of priority use of traditional materials and methods of construction was agreed to and has since been entrusted to Kathmandu Metropolitan City government for execution. Although KMC is still grappling to realise the reconstruction, at least, when it will finally come up, it will use a traditional timber plinth and floor system of lakasi-tham-meth-nina, sufficiently absorbent of energy released in earthquakes with chukuls and flexible joinery without steel cleats, and the central core of four timber posts of the mandap will continue to be cushioned in gold plated foils lining the Ilohn recess. In 1984, Prof Sekler, the founding chairman of Kathmandu Valley Preservation Trust, had stood alone at Mangalbazar of Patan protesting the demolition of Mangal Pati to demand respect for traditional materials, methods and surviving sections: he could not save it from destruction then. It had taken a dogged fifteen year long struggle to bring the restoration of the 55 Windowed Palace in line with traditional materials and methods. That was already 2003. In 2016, citizens of Kathmandu picketed at Ranipokhari against the use of concrete in the reconstruction and they forced a halt to it. Today, community pressure is on to ensure that the reconstruction of Kashthamandap prioritises the use of traditional materials and technology. But the sacrilege continues at the throne pavilion of the Mallas of Patan. Worse, the wrenching of the guts of Mani Mandap is proposed by KVPT, the organisation Prof Sekler created, while the Department of Archeology prefers to look the other way. Now, it is for the rest of the community to quickly get out of this cultural amnesia to demand that all reconstructions respect the values of Newar culture, including those embedded in conservation traditions, technologies and natural materials. After all, we are children of the civilisation that noted, agreed and set up its’ own guiding principles of heritage conservation: Having observed the time torn state of the coat of arms of Lord Vishnu, I restored as truthfully to its original as guided by its remaining traces, for the benefit the world. Mahasamanta Amshuverma at Changu, 607 AD. And rise we must and in time, before Newar architecture is reduced to a cut and paste wood carvings job on a steel and concrete carcass!

"It's still a decent shake. They're rattling the doors, but nothing is [like] what it was. I think when [the quake] first hit it must have gone on for about a minute." HANMER SPRINGS AND AROUND Hurunui locals are trying to get into Waiau to check on family and friends left isolated after the initial earthquake. Christchurch student April Clarke spent the early hours of the morning trying to get in touch with friends in the town. She hasn't been able to contact anyone. "There are six people in Waiau nobody can get a hold of," Clarke said. Corey Odonnell tried driving to Waiau, but parts of the road appeared to be impassable. Fallen farm buildings are scattered along the road from Culverden to Waiau. Waiau, a town on State Highway 70, is only a few kilometres east of the original quake's epicentre. Power and telephone services appeared to be down for the town. Landslips were blocking parts of State Highway Seven between Waipara and Springs Junction, a Hurunui District Council spokeswoman said. There were also reports of damaged bridges on roads near Hanmer and Waiau, she said. Buildings had also been damaged in the area. Jane Thompson, who lives near Cheviot in North Canterbury, said it was a "long, rolling earthquake". She had spoken to some residents in the Cheviot township and heard reports of minor damage. "We are eight kilometres from coast so are staying put," she said. Hanmer Springs Civil Defence coordinator David Smith said people in the North Canterbury town were "looking after each other". "Daylight will give another view on things but the village has been checked, the fire brigade have done a thorough drive around all the village and basically the only damage we are aware of is a broken water main pipe at Queen Mary Hospital." Civil Defence have advised all evacuated coastal towns in the Hurunui district are to remain closed until further notice. All residents on the Cheviot water scheme and rural water schemes have been asked to conserve water, and should continue to boil water as a precautionary measure. Spark's cellphone network is down in the Waiau area, and power is out in the Hanmer Springs, Culverden and Cheviot areas. MARLBOROUGH AND NELSON. Around 2000 people are still without power in Marlborough following the earthquake. Marlborough Lines operations manager Brian Tapp said at 4am that there was no power in Seddon, Ward, the Awatere Valley or anywhere south to Clarence Bridge. Because of the reports of damaged houses in Seddon, Tapp said the lines company was hesitant to switch power back on remotely. Their 33,000 volt line north of Ward had been damaged, and there reports of wires breaking, he said. Affected residents would have to wait until morning, when engineers were better able to assess the damage, before there was a clearer idea of when power would be restored. Marlborough Kaikoura Rural Fire Authority principal rural fire officer Richard McNamara advised people to head for higher ground as there was a tsunami warning in place. "If it's long and strong, be gone," he said. "At this stage there's a tsunami threat so our advice is to move to higher ground." "There has been damage, the scale and size we're unsure of at this stage. There is damage to infrastructure, council staff are currently assessing that." Residents of the small settlements north of Blenheim are being moved to higher ground, a Marlborough District Council spokeswoman said. An evacuation centre had been opened at the Tuamarina Hall following the tsunami warning. Marlborough Civil Defence controller Richard McNamara said fire crews, DOC staff and police were working together. Residents of the lower Wairau plain east of State Highway 1 were being advised to move to higher ground. SH1 is closed at Ward with damage reported at the Ure Bridge. A road block is in place just north of Blenheim, at Riverlands, and people are being urged to keep off the road if possible. Bridges at Spring Creek and near Tuamarina are also closed, while damage is assessed. Emergency staff are door-knocking at Seddon, south of Blenheim, however there is no report of damage to the area yet. The Marlborough harbourmaster has closed Tory Channel to shipping until more advice is received on the impact of the tsunami. McNamara said it will be daylight before there is a full assessment of damage and in the meantime people are urged to stay off the roads and conserve water. Nelson resident Jo Davis grabbed her children and sheltered in a doorway as the quake seemed to "go on forever". The former Christchurch resident said it was a much longer, more rolling motion than the 2010 Canterbury quake. Davis, who lives in the central city suburb of The Wood, said she was surprised there appeared to be no damage to the house. "It really shook for a long time." BLENHEIM. There is some damage in central Blenheim, with shop windows broken. Blenheim Volunteer Fire Station is cordoned off, and firefighters are on high alert. Some families have packed their emergency kits in their cars in preparation to leave. Blenheim Countdown store manager Liz Nelson said the earthquake had knocked a lot of stock off the shelves. The night fill and pricing teams that were in the store at the time were all okay, and had gathered outside the building following the earthquake. "There's a bit of damage on the back wall, cracks in the plaster, but mostly it's stock on the floor," she said. There were unconfirmed reports of looting. A police officer that stopped at the Countdown told staff about potential looting at a nearby chemist. Blenheim resident Gemma Adams said she was lying in bed when she started to feel the bed swaying. The length of the earthquake made it terrifying, Adams said. "We were lying there going, 'what do we do, what do we do'." Adams and her partner ran to the kitchen and got under the table. Electricity is out between Ward and Seddon and also in other pockets around Blenheim and surrounding townships. WAIKATO AND BAY OF PLENTY. The tsunami warning for Waikato and Bay of Plenty has been lowered to a marine and beach threat, but Civil Defence are warning that could change. For now, though, residents can return home but are being asked to stay off the beaches and away from waterways. In Hamilton, Wayne Timmo woke to the kitchen blinds banging against the window and said the quake felt like a "long slow, rolling or almost rotating motion". "The water in the neighbour's swimming pool was left sloshing around for about a minute and people woken by the quake came out onto the street to talk about it. Hataitai resident and reporter Rachel Thomas said her flatmates woke up to their weatherboard house groaning. "Our cockatiel fell off his perch. The aftershocks just keep coming. Three of us are huddling under the kitchen table in our dressing gowns with a trembling bird in between." Power and phones were out in Waikanae on the Kapiti Coast. TARANAKI. Thousands of people are without electricity in New Plymouth, Stratford, Eltham and Hawera. Some powerlines are down and power may not be restored until the morning in some areas. Many residents have taken to Facebook to say they were woken and scared by the quake and that aftershocks are still being felt. AUCKLAND. The quake was felt in Auckland, including at Middlemore Hospital, where patients were sent running from their beds. Auckland Civil Defence Emergency Management controller John Dragicevich said there was no immediate tsunami threat to Auckland but there was still a standard warning in place for people near marine areas. That including keeping an eye out for changes in the sea and moving to higher ground if necessary. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113184200</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-58de6b969809169882d1f72ba6d64931"><title>Marlborough residents told to get away from coast after earthquake</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/86416464/Marlborough-residents-told-to-get-away-from-coast-after-earthquake</link><description>Structural engineers and council building inspectors would be checking council property such as the stadium and libraries.

building inspectors would be checking council property such as the stadium and libraries. Council would also be checking domestic water reservoirs and dams in the morning, and remind private dam owners that they should inspect their own dams in accordance with their plan requirements. Marlborough Mayor John Leggett urged people to look after each other, check on neighbours and be prepared for aftershocks. Destination Marlborough, the Council's tourism arm, would be working to assist any tourists visiting the area who have concerns about their situation. RESIDENTS RUSH FROM HOMES. Rarangi man Ian Molloy said he got his family in the car and "bolted". They got as far as Rapaura Rd before turning back after hearing on the radio there was no tsunami threat. By the time they got back to Rarangi, a tsunami warning had been issued. They grabbed some items from the house and went to stay with family in Picton. The rest of of the coastal community, between Blenheim and Picton, was clearing out when they left, Molloy said. "There's quite a bit of damage, but we don't know to what extent yet." An evacuation centre was opened at the Tuamarina Hall following the tsunami warning, while emergency services responded to a call of people trapped under wine tanks at Riverlands Industrial Park. Residents of the lower Wairau plain, east of SH1, were also advised to move to higher ground. The streets in Kaikoura were lined with cars after the quake, centred in north Canterbury, and Kaikoura's lookout was packed with locals and tourists. The volunteer fire brigade was checking on people while power lines were down. Residents in South Bay, Kaikoura, were being told to get to higher ground by Civil Defence staff using megaphones. Roads including Mt Fyffe Rd and Scarborough St were damaged, along with reports of damage to SH1. Blenheim resident Nigel Mitchell was directing cars at the Wither Hills Mountain Bike Park car park, on Taylor Pass Rd, about 3am. People were huddled together beside their cars listening to radio reports, while others decided to go higher - climbing up into the Wither Hills Farm Park, Mitchell said. "It was pretty scary for the kids," he said. "We decided we'd come and sit up here for a few hours - I'm not going anywhere until I feel it's safe." Picton Volunteer Fire Brigade chief fire officer Wayne Wytenburg said the town was expecting a surge to hit Picton after hearing the tsunami warning. People were warned to get ready to move, Wytenburg said. A welfare centre was set up at Waikawa Marae, near Picton. There were reports of liquefaction near the Picton foreshore, while the ferry terminal and wharves were closed. A base was established at the fire station. The Marlborough harbourmaster closed Tory Channel to shipping until more advice was received on the impact of the tsunami. Blenheim woman Bridget Thurlow lived in Seddon during the 2013 quakes and said Monday's quake felt like "a different scale". "This is way, way worse," she said. "I'm in shock again. It's brought back so many memories." She could not get through to some family and friends in Seddon, but said her sister had picked up her mother, who still lived in Seddon. "Everyone's just bewildered. Everyone just got their lives back on track, and it's happened again." Blenheim Countdown store manager Liz Nelson said the earthquake had knocked a lot of stock off the shelves. The night fill and pricing teams in the store at the time were all OK, and gathered outside the building following the earthquake. "There's a bit of damage on the back wall, cracks in the plaster, but mostly it's stock on the floor," she said. There was unconfirmed reports of looting. A police officer that stopped at the Countdown told staff about potential looting at a nearby chemist. What you need to know. 111, ELECTRICITY. The 111 emergency service was briefly knocked out following the quake, but has now been restored. If you have trouble phoning 111, contact your local police station - numbers are listed here. The Fire Service said about 4am that all 111 communication centres were fully operational. Electricity is out between Ward and Seddon and also in other pockets around Blenheim and surrounding townships. Electricity is also out in many places in the North Island, including Wellington, Palmerston North, Whanganui, Taihape, Hawera and New Plymouth. Keep track of power outages here. ROAD CLOSURES. State Highway 1 has been closed from Picton to Waipara, north of Christchurch, due to earthquake damage. It is believed bridges on the road have been damaged, including the rail overbridge at Parnassus, between Cheviot and Kaikoura. Cheviot ward councillor Vince Daly said State Highway 1, up from Goose Bay on the boundary between the Hurunui and Kaikoura districts, is "impassable". "I wouldn't advise people to travel north of Cheviot. There are big cracks in the road - the road's just opened up." TRAINS SUSPENDED, FERRIES CANCELLED. A visitor helpline has been set up for visitors to Marlborough who require travel assistance. Blenheim, Havelock and Picton iSite visitor information centres are open. Anyone wanting to make or adjust their travel plans can contact the visitor centres for assistance or call the visitor helpline on 0800 777 181. KiwiRail said all trains throughout the South Island, and in the North Island south of Palmerston North on the main trunk line, have been cancelled until further notice. Ferry sailings have been cancelled until a full assessment can be made of the terminals in Wellington and Picton. That was unlikely to happen until daylight hours. EVACUATION CENTRES. In Marlborough, the Tuamarina Hall on State Highway 1, north of Blenheim, has been set up as an evacuation point. Picton residents can head to Waikawa Marae at 210 Waikawa Rd. SCHOOL CLOSURES. Queen Charlotte College in Picton will stay open today for NCEA exams, the college has announced. Principal Betty Whyte said she and the school's property manager had made an inspection of the school early in the morning and found it was fine. As it had no two-storey buildings an engineer's report was not needed, Whyte said. Many students were unable to make it to the school to sit their exams and that was fine, Whyte said. Marlborough Girls' College and Marlborough Boys' College, however, are closed until further notice. Marlborough Boys' College principal Wayne Hegarty said structural reports would need to be done on his school. However he believed the buildings would be OK. Students missing their exams would receive a derived mark based on what they received in their practice exams. Scholarship exams had been cancelled. A post on the Marlborough Girls' College Facebook page said structural engineer checks were being carried out, and told students to stay home from school. SUPERMARKETS AND SPORTS GROUNDS. The Marlborough District Council has said Blenheim's sportsground Lansdowne Park is closed due to liquefaction, and Picton's Endeavour Park is also closed for a site inspection. The Elizabeth Street/Dillons Point footbridge in Blenheim is damaged and closed. The following supermarkets in Blenheim are closed: Springlands Countdown - closed Blenheim Countdown - closed Redwoodtown Countdown - opening at noon New World - closed Pak'nSave - open. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113224300</sortelement></item><item emm:id="nzherald-3dea042c370fde2854717cbf1c7f957a"><title>Earthquake prompts petition for coastal sirens</title><link>http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=11747557&amp;ref=rss</link><description>A petition and a Facebook page have been set up for Papamoa residents asking for tsunami warning sirens to be installed.

A new Facebook page named " Let's get Papamoa Tsunami sirens " was created this morning following concerns raised by locals that they did not wake up to text message alerts. The page posted: "Until the November 14th tsunami evacuation scare, I believed that the sirens at the Paxton Road Fire station would sound the sirens in a event of a tsunami evacuation. I was wrong and this is not the case. "The fire station have no control over the sirens therefore they would not sound in an event of us needing to evacuate. "People did not wake up to the text messages and if phone lines and communication is down then what are we to rely on.

"I'm not a New Zealander, I've lived here 18 months so earthquakes, tsunami, volcanoes, that sort of stuff I take seriously. "Texts in theory are a good idea, but they didn't work." Felt reports generated on GeoNet from around the Western Bay of Plenty. Image/GeoNet. He was concerned enough to message Civil Defence, and got back a message saying if you feel a strong earthquake, head to higher ground. But he did not feel the earthquake. "And what happens if it's an earthquake too far away to feel that sets off a tsunami? Mr Evans said the same thing happened to him the last time a tsunami alert was issued. "In theory, a mass text alert an email is a good idea, but when you need to wake people up in the middle of the night, text messages aren't going to cut the mustard." Mr Evans said sirens would be the best option as "old-school technology is sometimes the better option". Brooke Ion, from Papamoa, said she woke up this morning and checked her Facebook page, only to realise she should have headed to higher ground four hours earlier. "I slept right through it then went on Facebook and saw nothing but evacuation posts, it's pretty worrying! Especially because my partner and I live two minutes from the beach. "I've been woken up by fire station sirens, but never by a text message. We also live in the bottom floor of a house so our chances of risk are increased, I feel." Waihi beach resident Emma Pollard said while the township had warning sirens, she was concerned they were not utilised immediately and residents received text messages first. Our phones are generally on silent overnight as are most people's, so was surprised the siren wasn't used first. "I understand for [Civil Defence] they heard of the downgrade just before sounding sirens, however we were still in process of evacuating our three young children alerted by a friend's phone call. "They didn't text the downgrade til 40 mins or so later. Slightly concerning that texting was used first overnight."

The new agreement to end the continuing Colombian armed conflict which has been raging since 1964, “includes changes, precisions and additions from the most diverse sectors of society,” the government and the FARC, said in a joint communique. The new agreement aimed at addressing the concerns of opponents of the original deal clarifies the conditions under which FARC leaders would be deprived of their liberty. In early October voters rejected the original deal by 50.2 percent to 49.8 percent.

Central Italy has been struck by a 4.2 magnitude earthquake, the Italian National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology said. According to the scientists, the epicenter of the quake was located about 109 kilometers away from Rome, in a Maltignano region, and at a depth of 10 meters. There have been no reports about any casualties or damages so far.

US Defence Secretary Ash Carter has revealed that the two of the men who died in Saturday's attack on Bagram airbase outside Kabul, were American military personnel, and the other two US contractors. 16 other US personnel and one Polish serviceman were injured in the suicide attack on the largest US facility in Afghanistan.

The Ethiopian government has revealed the scale of its crackdown, following the introduction of a state of emergency in early October, prompted by civil unrest throughout the country. "Some 11,607 individuals have so far been detained in six prisons, of which 347 are female, in connection with the state of emergency declared in the country," State of Emergency Inquiry Board chairperson Taddesse Hordofa said on state television, without revealing how many had been charged or released. Those detained have been accused of violence towards officials and other citizens, incitement, and disruption of infrastructure.

About 150 protesters were detained buses during protests against Donald Trump's election in Grand Park in Los Angeles early on Saturday, the LA Times has reported. The demonstration drew about 3,000 citizens, chanting " Not my President!" and was mostly peaceful, until a small section of demonstrators began to pelt police with stones, and vandalize property. LAPD labeled the gathering a “ violent congregation ” and began to take " proactive " measures to break up the demonstration.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113051800</sortelement></item><item emm:id="voxy-6a07aeecbd4d6967fc562c0627ca2924"><title>Tips for New Plymouth building owners following quake</title><link>http://www.voxy.co.nz/business/5/268238</link><description>New Plymouth District Council advises owners of buildings identified as being earthquake-prone to check their buildings, particularly at ground level, for any new damage following today’s big earthquake.

Residents with old-style chimneys should check these at roof level, particularly those more than 1m high above the roof. "This is a precautionary measure," says Customer and Regulatory Solutions Manager Katrina Brunton. "Due to the distance from the epicentre of these earthquakes, New Plymouth District has a very low risk for resulting building damage. The district has had more potentially damaging earthquakes from local fault lines in the last six months that have not resulted in any damage. "However if a building owner or occupier thinks they have found some new damage, we advise them to call an engineer to provide an expert opinion." Early this morning, an experienced engineer and Council officer undertook visual checks of vulnerable buildings - those buildings most at risk to earthquake damage - in the community. These inspections found no visual damage.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114035700</sortelement></item><item emm:id="Stuff-cca0ae8d3eaa1037f5eee4832db7e452"><title>Some supermarkets reopening following earthquake closures</title><link>http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/industries/86420657/Some-supermarkets-reopening-following-earthquake-closures</link><description>Some supermarkets are reopening after being forced closed as a result of Monday morning's earthquakes The 7.5 magnitude earthquake was centred in North Canterbury, near Hanmer Springs.

Some Foodstuffs stores in the Wellington and Canterbury regions were closed for a clean-up or because of tsunami warnings. READ MORE: Foodstuffs owns the New World and Pak 'n Save supermarkets and Four Square stores. The New World supermarkets affected were Wellington's Railway, Porirua and Newtown stores, plus Kaikoura and Christchurch's Redcliffs store. There Four Squares affected were Kaikoura, Culverton and Cheviot. Both New World Newtown and Four Square Culverton were now open, while all others affected remained closed. All New World, Pak 'n Save and Four Squares stores outside of those sites were running as normal.

Foodstuffs spokeswoman Antoinette Laird said the company's thoughts were with all those affected. Countdown supermarkets in the South Island remained open, except in Blenheim, where the Springlands and Blenheim stores were closed, as did a SuperValue store in Seddon. The Countdown at Redwoodtown was now open. Three Countdown stores were closed in Wellington: Queensgate, Wainuiomata, and Porirua. Countdown Petone and Lower Hutt were now open. Online shopping was temporarily unavailable in the Blenheim region and service to Wellington and Christchurch customers may also be disrupted. Countdown's Palmerston North distribution centre was also closed and there may be some delays in getting stock to some South Island supermarkets. - Stuff.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161114024400</sortelement></item><item emm:id="newshub-2d46daca6b180a2737cf7a1bf64116ab"><title>Governor-General offers quake support</title><link>http://www.newshub.co.nz/nznews/governor-general-offers-quake-support-2016111414</link><description>Governor-General Dame Patsy Reddy has expressed her condolences to the families of the two people who lost their lives in last night's 7.5 magnitude earthquake.

"That's why we left, because we thought it was safer for her if anything happened, like if there was a tsunami," Mill told the NZ Herald. The family left their Bower Ave home at 2am and returned five hours later to find it ransacked. "We came up the driveway and saw the work truck was gone," she said. "Then we saw the front door was open, the side door, the garage door and the sleepout." Theives have been all through the Mill's house and stolen their television, an x-box and other property including their youngest daughter's wireless microphone system which she needs for a hearing impairment. The system is worth about $5000 and is set up specifically for her, so will be of no use to anyone else. Mill said she was disgusted by the incident. In a city ravaged by earthquakes and disaster she thought her home would have been safe and the community would have pulled together. "I feel sick," she said. "I feel absolutely devastated." She said police had been alerted but due to the ongoing earthquake situation they said it could be two days before anyone could get to the home. "They have been through everything," Mill said. "It's really horrid. We took our family away to be safe and came back to all of this... it's just devastating." Mill said the work truck had a lot of tools in the back and was quite recognisable.

Police are investigating three burglaries reported in the aftermath of this morning's massive earthquake. Hundreds of Christchurch residents fled their homes as a tsunami warning was issued in the early hours of the morning. As of 9am Christchurch police had received three reports of burglaries which Canterbury District Commander Superintendent John Price said "appear to have occurred while people were evacuated following the earthquakes". "Police will investigate each report as usual and are absolutely confident we can deal with normal crime as well as the earthquake response and reassurance," Price told the Herald. The Herald revealed that Melissa Mill and her husband Matt arrived home about five hours after fleeing their New Brighton home to find it ransacked. A work truck and $5000 hearing device relied upon by their disabled 12-year-old daughter were stolen. "If people witness crime or are concerned about suspicious behaviour we encourage them to follow the normal processes and contact police immediately," said Price. "It is extremely disappointing that in a time when people are facing a traumatic event, others decide to take advantage like this." He said the fear of being looted should not trump personal safety when it came to returning home. "We understand people may have concerns about the security of their homes following evacuations, but it is important people do not return until it is made clear by the appropriate authorities it is safe to do so," Price advised. Anyone who has information about the burglary or sees the truck should call the Christchurch police immediately on 03 363 7400.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113221600</sortelement></item><item emm:id="ekantipur-90fbbda9eb9d75898794f8caa5a0de60"><title>NRA teams to monitor housing aid utilisation</title><link>http://kathmandupost.ekantipur.com/news/2016-11-12/nra-teams-to-monitor-housing-aid-utilisation.html</link><description>Nov 12, 2016- The government has decided to mobilise teams to monitor if the earthquake-affected families are using the housing reconstruction aid to its purpose.

The National Reconstruction Authority (NRA) has prepared a working procedure to monitor the reconstruction process in all 14 districts that were affected by the 2015 earthquake. As per the new procedure, the teams will monitor whether the households that have received the first instalment of the aid (Rs 50,000) are building homes as per the requirements approved by the government, said NRA Spokesperson Ram Prasad Thapaliya. The teams will also be responsible for overseeing the house map approval process. “There have been reports about fund misuse. We want the teams to inspect the process and those households found misusing the funds could become ineligible for second instalment of the aid,” Thapaliya said. The government has decided to distribute Rs 300,000 each to the households affected by the earthquake in three portions of Rs 50,000, Rs 150,000 and Rs 100,000 respectively. The NRA has so far distributed the first tranche of the aid to 431,190 of the 623,494 the earthquake-hit families.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161112043500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="rnzi-3a9fbf9be844f3d668e67f8470030109"><title>New Zealanders in shock after quake</title><link>http://www.radionz.co.nz/news/national/318000/new-zealanders-in-shock-after-quake</link><description>Civil Defence is scrambling to assess damage from the severe earthquake which shook much of the country just after midnight, followed by a series of aftershocks.

Here's what we know so far: It was centred near Hamner Springs, magnitude 7.5, 16km deep and struck at 12.02am. A tsunami warning has been issued and people in southern coastal areas and the east coast of both the North islands are being advised to take precautions. Several shakes have hit since the first just after midnight, including a 5.6km quake near Culverden. RNZ presenter Simon Morton, who lives on the south coast in Wellington, said he had evacuated his house after noticing the tide dropping away. Other people had joined him in going to higher ground.

Alan Vincent was on the water near Lyttelton near Christchurch when the quake struck. He said it felt like "giants shaking the living daylights out of the boat". Hotel guests in central Christchurch were evacuated and are standing outside in the CBD. More than 100 people are standing on the footpath opposite the Christchurch Casino, while at least 100 hotel guests are outside the Novotel, opposite the Christ Church Cathedral. St John says it has had no reports of injuries from the earthquake. A spokesperson says it is monitoring the situation but at this stage has not activated the emergency operations centre (EOC). The spokesperson says people are encourgaged to check on their neighbours, family and friends, especially those who live alone or are frail. It is also important to have your emergency kit, torch and other emergency supplies ready.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113150000</sortelement></item><item emm:id="qt-27c2d4a57426a3a5b832449422faeacc"><title>Child's medical equipment stolen during quake evacuation</title><link>http://www.qt.com.au/news/childs-medical-equipment-stolen-during-quake-evacu/3111446/</link><description>A FAMILY who fled their New Brighton home with their disabled child have returned to find the property looted.

Melissa Mill and her husband were shaken away by the earthquake this morning and decided to leave their home for safety. They have two daughters and the youngest has muscular dystrophy. "That's why we left, because we thought it was safer for her if anything happened, like if there was a tsunami," Mill told the Herald. The family left their Bower Ave home at 2am and returned five hours later to find it ransacked. "We came up the driveway and saw the work truck was gone," she said. "Then we saw the front door was open, the side door, the garage door and the sleepout." Thieves have been all through the Mill's house and stolen their television, an x-box and other property including their youngest daughter's wireless microphone system which she needs for a hearing impairment. The system is worth about $5000 and is set up specifically for her, so will be of no use to anyone else. Mill said she was disgusted by the incident. In a city ravaged by earthquakes and disaster she thought her home would have been safe and the community would have pulled together. "I feel sick," she said. "I feel absolutely devastated." She said police had been alerted but due to the ongoing earthquake situation they said it could be two days before anyone could get to the home. "They have been through everything," Mill said. "It's really horrid. We took our family away to be safe and came back to all of this... it's just devastating." Mill said the work truck had a lot of tools in the back and was quite recognisable. The number plate is EPP79 and it is a silver Mazda truck with roof racks.</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113221500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="voxy-c33070e261ffb8085f7e8b11dfd0c2df"><title>Clean-up underway at affected Foodstuffs stores</title><link>http://www.voxy.co.nz/national/5/268158</link><description>We would like to advise customers that outside of the affected area’s all New World, PAK’nSAVE and Four Square stores are open and operational as normal.

Christchurch Civil Defence Controller John Mackie said it is important to note that this applies only to those outside the evacuation areas. People inside those areas should still go inland or head to higher ground. "Anyone outside the evacuation areas who is going home can only do so if they don’t have to pass through an area that is at risk. For example, in the maps available online if you live in New Brighton and you need to pass through a cordon to get home, you should not be trying to return." The three evacuation centres open in Christchurch at Akaroa School Hall, Linwood College and Mairehau School remain busy. Mr Mackie encouraged people to consider staying with family and friends located inland areas if possible. As at 6.30am there were 300 people at Linwood and 50 at Mairehau and 25 at Akaroa. There are about 100 people at Mt Pleasant Hall and a number of people in cars on site as well. They are not requiring Civil Defence assistance at this time. Tsunami sirens have been sounding during the night and morning and a decision has been made to only sound these on the passing of each hour to indicate the evacuation advice remains in force. Metro buses services and a number of school runs would be operating a limited service. A number of schools are closed and people should check with their local school for details. Check the Metroinfo website for updates. Building owners and or occupants who are entering buildings after this morning’s earthquake sequence, are advised to get the building checked to establish if any damage has occurred. If this assessment raises any concern, the building should be checked by a professional engineer. The Council staff will be checking its own buildings. Building owners have a responsibility to check their own buildings to make sure they are safe to occupy. If residential home owners are concerned the need to engage a suitably qualified person to assess their property. There is more information on the Council website. https://www.ccc.govt.nz/consents-and-licences/earthquake-prone-buildings/what-building-owners-should-do-after-an-earthquake/</emm:text><sortelement xmlns="emm">20161113195500</sortelement></item><item emm:id="newshub-801649aee1b492240856746973a2ab2b"><title>Substantial damage to infrastructure expected - Key</title><link>http://www.newshub.co.nz/tvshows/paulhenry/substantial-damage-to-infrastructure-expected---key-2016111413</link><description>Many New Zealanders were shaken awake just after midnight as a magnitude 7.5 earthquake struck near Hanmer Springs.
