A 3.8 magnitude earthquake off of Maine rocked the New England coast from Augusta to Cape Cod on Monday morning, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The earthquake occurred 6.8 miles off the coast of York Harbor, Maine, around 10:22 a.m. No tsunami watches or warnings went into effect for the area, according to the National Atmospheric and Oceanic Administration.
The shaking was felt across New England, according to a map by the Geological Survey.
The Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency wrote in a post on social media that it received reports of shaking but no reports of structural damage. After an earthquake, MEMA advises residents to look for any possible damage in their homes and check on neighbors or elderly relatives.
The Maine Emergency Management Agency asked residents to only call 911 in the event of an emergency. The earthquake did not appear to cause major damage, said Vanessa Corson, a spokesperson for the agency. Corson also said local emergency management agencies did not report any damage.
