Description
Snoqualmie Valley residents felt a rare earthquake early Tuesday morning that registered a magnitude 3.9.
The earthquake began at 3:17 a.m. around Junction, which is about 25 miles east of Seattle and about 5 miles northeast of Fall City, the United States Geological Survey said.
"That's strong enough to certainly wake you up and shake for a few seconds. For most people probably by the time they realized it was an earthquake, it was over," Pacific Northwest Seismic Network (PNSN) Director and University of Washington Professor Harold Tobin said. "The size, I don't think there's been any damage, not that I've heard of, and I wouldn't expect any at that size."
