An earthquake of magnitude 6.2 struck Argentina early Monday. Preliminary data revealed that the quake occurred at a depth of 180 km(111 miles). Its strength may have been tempered by its depth below the surface. The quake was likely felt by many in the area, but probably did not cause any injuries, deaths, or significant damage. There still could be more going on out there in the world. A magnitude 3.1 occurred in Western Tennessee late last night. At least 44 people reported feeling the earthquake on the USGS website. It was part of the New Madrid Seismic Zone. There also may have been something in the Appalachians overnight. It appeared on seismometers around Eastern TN. It was probably in southeastern TN.
