An earthquake of magnitude 2.6 was reported  a few blocks northeast of Maple Leaf just before 7 a.m.

The quake, centered essentially at Lake City Way Northeast and Northeast 120th Street, is shown in red on this map from the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network.

It occurred at 6.56 a.m. and was 9.3 miles underground, according to the network.

A second quake, magnitude 2.3,  occurred just after 7:30 a.m. near Redmond.

We first heard of both from our news partners The Seattle Times.

  1. I felt it! I was getting my morning coffee and thought my refrigerator was shaking. It passed through my mind, “is this an earthquake?” but then I dismissed it because it was so small. Glad I didn’t imagine it!

  2. I didn’t feel the earthquake this morning, but I did notice that the display on my alarm clock was blinking a couple days ago. Did we have a power outage Thurs?
    Editor: We did, on Friday morning. It lasted about one second.
