Something wierd going on claimed to be linked to this quake.

We can all see this is no where near the caost of South Africa, but news media (genuine) and others are claiming reports from residents in CT that they felt a range of tremors, news linking those tremots to this quake.

But surely that's impossible, this quake was a semi-normal 10km depth quake out in the southern ocean ridge (though location was unusual, on that intersection point of plate boundires, they are usually closer to Falklands side)

I live on south coast of SA but felt nothing.

Ppl leaving comments about it here (ignore Begley, the quake was not in South Africa itself):

Whats interesting unless lying, some of the commentators description of the event sounds more like a meteorite or small air-burst.
