What you need to know about earthquakes
Every year, there are about 500,000 earthquakes – 100,000 of which can be felt on the Earth’s surface. But how do earthquakes work? We explain.
Just the FAQs
A 3.8 magnitude earthquake shook northwestern Tennessee early Thursday morning, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The earthquake hit around 3:19 a.m. local time about 4 miles south of Ridgely, Tennessee, about 13 miles northwest of Dyersburg and about 150 miles west of Nashville, according to the USGS.
According to the USGS, light to moderate shaking could be felt around the region, including as far south as Memphis and as far north as Carbondale, Illinois. The quake hit at a depth of about 4.5 miles, according to the agency, and no damage or injuries were immediately reported.
According to the USGS, there is not one magnitude above which damage will occur. It depends on other variables, such as the distance from the earthquake, what type of soil you are on, building construction, among others. However, the USGS says damage does not usually occur until the earthquake magnitude reaches somewhere above 4 or 5.

JACKSON, Tenn. (WBBJ) – The Tennessee Highway Patrol held an open house Thursday at the THP Jackson District Office in West Madison County for those interested in becoming a state trooper.
Attendees had the opportunity to learn about the various operations of the THP and the roles the department offers.
Trooper Tiffanie Williams said the career comes with competitive benefits and a sense of community responsibility.
“What makes us a good career choice is, one, base your retirement plan is pretty good, your benefits are pretty good. Also, just giving back to the community — we kind of hold ourselves to a higher standard,” Williams said.
