October 13 - Sooner shakeup!

Residents of Oklahoma were jolted this morning by something entirely unexpected: an earthquake that struck the state around 9 a.m. local time, damaging several buildings, causing minor injuries and rattling people in five other states. The quake was centered five miles east-northeast of Noble and eight miles southeast of Norman. The U.S. Geological Survey originally categorized the quake at 4.3 magnitude, but the Oklahoma Geological Survey later came out with its own assessment of 5.1.
