Was it strong enough to cause any damage or be worrying? I've never felt one either and have often wondered what it would be like.
No Rachael. I think the only reason I felt it is because I was reading on one of our terraces. Because the terrace is the roof to the garage it vibrated much more than the earth. I think if I had been standing in the garden I wouldn't have felt it.

Well I never thought I would ever say to someone who had just felt an earthquake 'Right place, right time'!

The press are reporting it as magnitude 4, midpoint between
Minor: 3.0-3.9 - often felt, but rarely causes damage.
Light: 4.0-4.9 - noticeable shaking of indoor items, rattling noises. Significant damage unlikely.
The epicentre was 10 kms out to sea south-east of Santa Cruz at 15.10.06 pm, affecting both Tenerife and Gran Canaria, according to the Instituto Geográfico Nacional. It's already showing on their recent quake page HERE. No damage has been reported to 112 at present.
