Witness location : Lower Hutt (New Zealand) (161 km SE from epicenter)

Was in our campervan and through someone was shaking our campervan. When we went outside realised it wasnt asked around and everyone else felt it. Seemed quite bad but I think it was because of the tyres making the van rock more.

Witness location : Wellington (New Zealand) (162 km SE from epicenter)

On 9th floor of hotel in downtown Wellington, lasted about a minute of rolling and mild shaking

Witness location : Taihape (New Zealand) (177 km E from epicenter)

Rocking and rolling. Rumbling noises. Absolutely frightening.

Witness location : Christchurch (New Zealand) (399 km S from epicenter)

It made a sound long before I felt it, maybe the noise moves faster than the shaking? It felt a long way away.
