Looks like a 5.4 New Zealand quake is a few minutes (22:18utc/218pmPST) from approaching with 0.5um/s motion. We'll see how we fair.
Around 22:13 Tidal, ASC (huge in yaw), and POP_A_LF all started getting big oscilations, but we appear to have ridden out the 22:18:52 R-wave arrival time. Didn't really see anything obvious in the 0.03-0.1 seismic band. Range has trended down to around 76Mpc over the last few minutes.
And all of this as the winds slowly get above 10mph.
Go H1! #knockonwood
