Some are calling it a tremor, others are calling it an earthquake.
Semantics aside, people were “shook”.
Those in Botswana would have been the worst affected, with this below from News24:
The epicentre of the quake, which hit at 19:40, was 238km northwest of Botswana’s capital Gaborone, the US Geological Survey said.
It struck at a relatively shallow depth of 11km, and rumbled throughout the capital for about 30 seconds, an AFP correspondent said…
Earlier on Monday, a smaller quake with a magnitude of 4.6 was recorded in northwestern South Africa.
If you want to know what it was like to be caught in the midst of the shaking there’s this video, originally uploaded to Twitter by @Oolex, who was caught in the middle of the action:

Even those in studio at eNCA experienced a little moving and shaking:
How apt that they’re talking about junk status when the rocking of the boat begins.
Jozi, you will rebuild.
