We were taking late dinner experienced the earthquake at our sixth floor dwelling. The building swayed for few seconds & distinct sounds were noted as type of slowly diminishing pendulum movement. When we put the TV on, the earthquake was being announced on "South Asian" channel. it was also observed in Dubai
