Rome (Italy, 133 km S of epicenter) : il piano a coda ha avuto un piccolo assestamento, e finché non ho trovato conferma nel sito EMSC, non potevo pensare fosse stato a causa di una lieve scossa. Nessun movimento percepibile del lampadario, che con la scossa forte delle 21:19 M=6 aveva oscillato di 5 cm, mentre questa era ML=3.4. (reported through EMSC)
Modena (Italy, 255 km NW of epicenter) : Stasera a Modena si muovevano i lampadari di casa, abito al terzo piano! (reported through EMSC)
Roma (Italy, 131 km S of epicenter) : A Roma zona prenestina si è sentito abbastanza da far tremare i lampadari e le sedie (reported through EMSC)
Ascoli Piceno (Italy, 39 km E of epicenter) : Poggiato ad un pilastro di casa effetto massaggio (reported through EMSC)
