Four point three earthquake shakes Victoria, Australia

"It's certainly not unusual to get aftershocks of this size after a magnitude 5.4 earthquake," seismologist Jonathan Bathgate told news.com.au about the quake that occured east-southeast of Melbourne.

An earthquake measured at 5.4 on the richter scale hit Gippsland in the state of Victoria a month ago.

"Well, I had just got home and sat down to check my e-mail, when I felt the building shake and the windows and the objects on my desk rattle," a woman affected by the quake told AAP.

The State Emergency Service (SES) has had no reports of damage or injuries following the earthquake.

My housemate and her friends in the lounge room felt the #melbearthquake, but I didn't in my bedroom.
