A 4.1-magnitude earthquake shook Knoxville and East Tennessee at 9:04 a.m. ET May 10, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

The earthquake originated near Greenback, Tennessee, which is 30 miles southwest of Knoxville. The earthquake was about 15 miles deep, the USGS says, which is considered a shallow quake.

It was the seventh earthquake with a 4.0 magnitude or greater since 1900 and the first since a 4.4-magnitude quake hit Decatur in 2018. The largest earthquake in East Tennessee since 1900 was a 4.7-magnitude quake in Alcoa in 1973.

The Knoxville Fire Department did not receive any reports of damage, spokesman Mark Wilbanks said, nor did the Knoxville Police Department.
