Morristown, NJ (AHN) - For the third time in three weeks, a small earthquake has shaken New Jersey. The most recent quake is the third to hit Morris County since Feb. 2.
No damage or injuries were reported from the 2.3 magnitude quake which was recorded in north-central New Jersey shortly before 1:42 a.m. Wednesday.
A spokesman for the county's office of emergency management said the epicenter was just over a mile outside of Dover, New Jersey, and was felt hardest by people in Denville and Randolph.
The first earthquake was a 3.0 magnitude that hit Rockaway, Dover and Morris Plains on Feb. 2, followed by a 2.2 magnitude quake on Valentine's Day that struck Boonton and nearby Montville.
