A minor earthquake was recorded early Thursday near Yellville in north-central Arkansas, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
The 2.4-magnitude quake occurred at 12:44 a.m. Thursday and was centered about two miles east of Yellville. Officials reported the earthquake's depth at 4.3 miles below the surface.
Earlier in the week, another small earthquake was reported in the region. The USGS confirmed a minor quake on Sunday night near Mountain Home.
Earthquakes of this magnitude are typically not strong enough to cause significant damage but can sometimes be felt by residents in the immediate area.
