ENID, Okla. (AP) – Several earthquakes have been recorded in northern Oklahoma following quakes registered as magnitude 4.4 and 4.0.

The U.S. Geological Survey recorded five earthquakes in the Enid area ranging from magnitude 3.0 to 3.5 between shortly after midnight until about 6:15 a.m. Tuesday.

The quakes come after 4.4 and 4.0 magnitude quakes were recorded in the same area Monday afternoon.

No injuries or severe damage is reported, but local residents told the Enid News & Eagle that items were knocked walls and shelves in their homes.

The strongest Oklahoma earthquake on record is a 5.6 quake centered in Prague in November 2011.
