An 4.7-magnitude earthquake struck 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) southwest of Christchurch, New Zealand, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, part of the continuing aftershocks from a bigger earthquake that hit the area in September.

The shocks registered 5.0 on the Richter Scale used in New Zealand, which is different from the one used by the USGS.

Phones appear to be down in the area and there are reports of power outages and building evacuations in Christchurch, the New Zealand Herald said

  • @themadoboist the 6.3 was February 22 2011, this one is one of the aftershocks from the September 4 2010 earthquake on October 19th 2010

  • It was 6.3, not 5.0
