A relatively small magnitude 3.7 earthquake shook the ground north of Seattle on Thursday.
The U.S. Geological Survey says the quake at 1:42 a.m. was about 8 miles northeast of Bryant, in Snohomish County.
About 50 people in Arlington, about 10 miles from the quake’s epicenter, reported on the USGS website that they felt it.
Julie Dutton with the USGS National Earthquake Information Center says it’s unlikely that the quake was related to a series of small tumblers that have been shaking California in recent days.
