There are reports of people feeling it throughout northeast Ohio.
The largest earthquake to affect Ohio was a 5.0 magnitude in 1986, according to a meteorologist for WKYC.
Are earthquakes rare here? Well, uncommon may be a better word for it. Many remember the January 31, 1986 5.0 quake in this same area. Here's more info on that one. https://t.co/b4eEGWQqRd @wkyc #earthquake @wtam1100
