**Earthquakes Shake East and West: Southeast Jolted by Magnitude 4.1 Tremor, Denver Area Experiences Rare Magnitude 2.9 Quake**
Denver, CO – Two earthquakes rattled residents across the United States this weekend, impacting both the East and West Coasts. On Saturday, May 10, a magnitude 4.1 earthquake shook the Southeast, with tens of thousands reporting feeling the tremor. Dr. Zhigang Peng, a seismologist and professor of geophysics at the Georgia Institute of Technology, told FOX Weather on May 11 that the quake was widely felt due to geological factors and population density.
Meanwhile, on Friday morning, a magnitude 2.9 earthquake struck north of Denver, Colorado, approximately 3 miles southwest of Dacono. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) reported that the shallow quake, occurring at a depth of 5.09 miles, was felt throughout Denver and its surrounding towns, particularly along the I-25 corridor.
While earthquakes are rare in the Denver area, with the last magnitude 3 or larger event occurring in 1981, the USGS believes Friday’s quake was likely felt due to its shallow depth, proximity to a populated area, and the time of day when people were active. No damage has been reported from either earthquake at this time.
