Santorini reportedly hit by the 'strongest earthquake yet' as
'quake storm' continues to rumble the Greek island after state
of emergency declared
Santorini has reportedly been hit by a 5.3 earthquake, which
local media says is the strongest of hundreds of tremors hitting
the Greek island.
The earthquake happened at 22.16pm and had an epicentre 14km
southwest of Arkesini, in the sea between Santorini and
Amorgos, Greek newspaper Kathimerini reports.
Vasilis Karastathis, director of the Geodynamic Institute,
told the newspaper that this earthquake measured 5.3 on
the Richter scale.
But he cautioned that it was not a 'major earthquake' and
'is no different from previous strong earthquakes of 5, 5.1
or 5.2 on the Richter scale' as more tremors are recorded
on Santorini.

This looks kinda bad ... nothing like it seen in modern
times.
The seismo people keep claiming there's no volcanic
activity - but if not that, then WHAT ??? This is
all escalating, ordinary quakes you get a strong
one and then smaller aftershocks trailing off. It's
like a WAY deep magma/gas bubble is pushing up.
Last time this thing went off it wiped out a bunch
of old civilizations - directly or via tsunamis.
Nobody knows if what we're seeing now was the exact
series of events in the past.
Another big tsunami will kill mass quantities of
people again.
