A magnitude 3.6 earthquake was reported near Los Angeles early Sunday morning.
The quake had a magnitude of 3.6 and a depth of over 17 kilometers, or 10.7 miles, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
According to European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre, some witnesses described the quake as a “sharp jolt” while others said it either woke them up or caused light shaking. Another witness on the earthquake reporting site said the quake was “short but strong.”
Earthquake expert Lucy Jones noted in a tweet that “because it is 10 miles down, everyone is at least 10 miles from it” which lessened how much the earthquake could be felt.
“What you feel in a small earthquake like this morning depends on how close you are to it. Because it is 10 miles down, everyone is at least 10 miles from it. The closer you are, the sharper the motion,” Jones said.
There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department.
An average of five earthquakes with magnitudes between 3.0 and 4.0 rattle the Los Angeles area annually, according to The Los Angeles Times.
