Earthquake in The Netherlands

[Norrage]

Okay this is weird, a 4,6 eartquake hit The Netherlands, I know, its nothing, but its very large for the small country like us. It happend about 21:00, and the centrum was near the German / Dutch border. I think more news is comming up soon I think..



I know its nothing, but as said it actually it IS a large eartquake for The Netherlands.
At my house I felt some shaking, and we heard some noises too, its so weird..

Weird to see rare disasters happen.
Earthquakes should not appear in Holland..

I didn't notice anything, nor in the news tho.

I didn't notice anything here in Belgium, where exactly in Holland did this happen?

[Norrage]

Most was felt in Gelderland, Utrecht, Limburg, and Brabant. And yes today.

I'd say your lucky if this earthqueake is considered small.

I also hope there were no victims or major damage caused.

First time i've ever heard of an earthquake in the Netherlands...

I was about to do my homework but first I went downstairs to get a drink and i sticked around because I heard something on TV.. My mom was on the phone and all of the sudden the person she was calling with said there was something shaking in his appartment.. My mom suggested it was an airplane but then on her twitter hundreds of people said ''earthquake'' or something of the kind.

This is the first time i have ever heard of an earthquake in the netherlands...
