Did today’s M2.3 near Frankston happen on the Selwyn Fault? Initially, it was hard to tell – @EarthquakesGA located the earthquake within Port Phillip Bay👇 while @AusQuake had it onshore. The Selwyn F. is SE dipping so we would expect events on this fault to locate SE of it. 1/3 https://t.co/qLlF8CzcxX pic.twitter.com/Za6LDXEbMT

Some people are reporting that this morning’s M2.2 near Frankston SE of Melbourne sounded like an explosion. Why?
With small shallow earthquakes, some of the seismic energy produced by the rupture reaches the surface and transforms into sound waves, producing the ‘boom’ we hear. https://t.co/ylfJ9Ubxxm
