A magnitude 6.1 earthquake today struck near New Zealand's Kermacec islands, but scientists in the islands were unaware of the tremor.
There were no reports of damage or risk of tsunami, the US Geological Survey (USGS) said.


PS: A small US religious group had predicted that Judgement Day would begin a day earlier, on Saturday, with an earthquake in New Zealand.

    ...21 May is already over in few parts of the world and will be over in just few minutes all over the world. But we are all safe so far. But the news is really interesting. Any updates from NZ?

    In another grim news, The Grimsvoetn volcano under Iceland's largest glacier began erupting Saturday, the Icelandic Meteorological Office said, reporting a tall plume of smoke rising from the crater.
    There was a cloud rising up from Grimsvoetn around 1900 GMT and at just before 2000 GMT it had reached an altitude of 11 kilometers (6.8 miles).
