It felt as if the furnace was blowing up, a truck was hitting our building and our solar panels were falling off – all at the same time,” said a resident less than 10 miles from the quake’s epicenter.

The earthquake occurred in the ocean off York Harbor, Maine, according to USGS. No tsunami watches or warnings went into effect for the area.

A 3.8-magnitude earthquake centered near the Maine coast rattled houses in northern New England on Monday and was felt by surprised residents of states hundreds of miles away.
