We live 4km from the Sept 4 faultline and our neighbours pool cleared the 6ft fence, just hitting the top foot or so, and killed the neighbours lawn!

Gessus.. thinking about us here in Canterbury, imagine if the quake hit 10 km off shore..like japan, nuts.

Impressive. I live in Bryndwr. 50 centimetres of water went over the edge of our pool in a wave that went through the fence and made it half way across the lawn. There was a clear debris line showing where it got to.

Yes, I had a similar wave out of my pool in redwood, the tidal wave reached the height of three stairs, 50cm sounds about right. Dam scary morning.
