A 5.1 magnitude earthquake was felt across much of Oklahoma late Friday night, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The USGS had the earthquake’s epicenter just northwest of Prague in Lincoln County — about 50 miles east of Oklahoma City.
Residents from Norman, Oklahoma City, Shawnee, Tulsa, Bartlesville and even southeast Kansas and north Texas quickly took to social media to report the shaking.
Friday’s temblor came just a few weeks after a cluster of earthquakes were reported near Arcadia. The largest of those earthquakes was a 4.3 magnitude.
