WATCH: Northeast Ohio's 3rd earthquake in past week shakes traffic cameras
CLEVELAND, Ohio (KDKA) -- Three earthquakes in less than a week have hit Northeast Ohio. One on Sunday night was strong enough to shake traffic cameras, as seen in video released by the Ohio Department of Transportation.
The magnitude 3.7 earthquake hit at 10:43 p.m. Sunday with a smaller 2.3 magnitude aftershock shortly after 11 p.m.
The epicenter of the earthquake was about 100 miles away from Pittsburgh, 5 miles beneath the Earth's surface, just east of Madison, Ohio, a town just east of Cleveland.
Even though this quake was located near Lake Erie's shore, reports to the U.S. Geological Survey show that there were some reports of residents in the Pittsburgh area feeling the quake, including reports from Allegheny, Indiana, Lawrence, Mercer, Clarion and Venango counties.
No damage was reported, even though an earthquake with a magnitude of 3.7 would release more energy than 4,000 pounds of explosives, according to IRIS and the U.S. Geological Survey. For reference, though, earthquakes with a magnitude 2 or less are rarely felt.
