Several Earthquakes Shake Oklahoma

File photo

It’s been a busy 24 hours for seismic activity in Oklahoma.

There have been 10 earthquakes within or very near the state’s borders — six of them magnitude 3.0 or greater. The closest one to Tulsa is also the most recent. A 3.8 magnitude quake centered about two miles southeast of Perry was felt just after 5:30 a.m.

Yesterday at 1:30 p.m., a 4.3 magnitude earthquake centered three miles northeast of Medford was felt into Wichita.

No injuries or damage have been reported.
