5.1 magnitude earthquake rattles parts of NC, Georgia: report
The quake is the second-strongest on record for the region

By Peter Aitken | Fox News

Parts of Georgia and North Carolina were shook by a 5.1 magnitude earthquake early Sunday, the National Weather Service reported.

The epicenter of the quake appeared to be around Sparta, N.C., with the impact extending as far north as Lynchburg, Virginia, and south to Atlanta, the NWS said.

So far no damage has been reported.

A 5 in that part of the country, as Biden would say....  Is a BFD. 

I am guessing we will be seeing some minor damage reports on this one.

Any Briefers in that blue hashed zone on the map?
