Never felt it!

An earthquake measuring 3.3 on the Richter scale occurred in Murcia on Wednesday and was felt in Alicante, Orihuela and Elche. The epicentre of the tectonic shift was just to the south of Albanilla and it happened at 7.21pm.

There were no injuries as a result of what is considered a fairly weak tremor, although there were some reports of falling debris from buildings and hanging objects were shaken. Those in multi storey buildings at the time were most likely to have noticed it, as it only measured 2 by the time it reached Alicante.
