An undersea volcano erupts off the coast of Tonga, sending plumes of steam, ash and smoke up to 100 meters into the air, on March 18, 2009, off the coast of Nuku'Alofa, Tonga.

Kinda worrying, there's been 2 earth tremors in Vic, AUS in the last month. The last one I can remember was like 8 years ago.
Any other country's getting tremors atm?
