Other agencies measured the quake being as strong as 6.7 Richter.
There were no initial reports of injuries or damage.

Yes, and several in between, probably some more aftershocks to come.

Good god, hope it settles soon, and we're worried about 60mph winds?!

It has also been reported that four people have been hospitalized as a result of the earthquake: two boys aged 10 and 12 (from the villages of Lygia and Vasiliki respectively), an 88-year-old woman from Pinakohori and a 45-year-old man from Lefkada.
According a local resident who spoke to Mega Channel, the village Athani (near Porto Katsiki) on the western side of the island has suffered major damages from the tremor, with churches, houses and other buildings collapsing. Landslides were also noted in Nydri and Pigadisani.

Don't be daft Maik. Of course it's Lefkas town - it was just like that when we went there in the 80's! :lol:

Earthquake moved Lefkada 36 cm south, say seismologists
The island of Lefkada moved 36 cm to the south after the strong earthquake measuring 6.1 on the Richter scale that stroke the Ionian island on Tuesday according to Athens Geodynamics Institute data.
"It makes sense after this quake" said to ANA-MPA seismologist-researcher Gerassimos Chouliaras. A similar movement happened on Cephalonia after January 2014 earthquake.
