earthquake

It's not likely to have caused any real damage, but there was a larger than normal earthquake that was felt near Grand Teton National Park today.

On the morning of January 6th (Wednesday), Wyoming received one of its first earthquakes of 2021, but it seems that pretty much no one noticed, and most certainly no one in Cheyenne.

It was reported as a magnitude of 3.6.

The U.S. Geological Survey says the epicenter was about 20 miles northeast of Jackson.

The quake's depth was estimated to be 4.7 miles below ground.

There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

Residents felt homes shake for 10 to 15 seconds.

There was a major earthquake this morning that rocked downtown Salt Lake City.

Residents from West Yellowstone to Bozeman reported feeling it.

We get a lot of earthquakes in Wyoming. Most are near the very seismically active area near Yellowstone. That's why it was a bit of a surprise to learn that an earthquake just occurred in southern Wyoming near Saratoga.
