A minor earthquake shook people on New Hampshire’s Seacoast last Wednesday night.
The U.S. Geological Survey reports that the quake was centered in North Hampton. It registered as a magnitude 1.0.
No damage was reported, but people called the police in Portsmouth to report rumbling and shaking.
Three weeks ago, several other minor quakes shook the same area.
