NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Residents as far away as Connecticut and Long Island reported feeling a 4.0 earthquake that struck southeastern Massachusetts on Sunday morning.
The earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.0 centered a few miles off the coast of New Bedford in Buzzards Bay struck just after 9 a.m., according to Randy Baldwin, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey's National Earthquake Information Center.
The earthquake struck at a depth of a little more than 9.3 miles.
There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.
Residents in Connecticut and Long Island took to social media saying they felt the 4.0 tremor.
Gov. Ned Lamont said the quake was felt by many in his state but that "we haven't received any reports of damage."
Anyone else on Long Island feel a little bit of that earthquake too??

Serious question: Did anyone near eastern Long Island or CT feel their house shake? It was brief but we're thinking a quake near here or maybe Long Island Sound.#earthquake #LongIsland

I felt it, North Shore Long Island. The house vibrated. Not crazy but definitely something I've never felt before. #earthquake
