4.4 Magnitude Earthquake Hits Tennessee And Georgia

Earlier this morning residents of Tennessee and Georgia were awakened by an angry Earth that was gettin’ its K. Michelle on and shook the tables.

According to USAToday, a 4.4 magnitude earthquake hit the states around 4:14 am EST and and aftershock was felt about 13 minutes later at a 3.3 magnitude.

It should come as no surprise that this happened, in fact, its more surprising that it doesn’t happen more often because the folks at the U.S. Geological Survey say that Eastern Tennessee seismic zone is the most active area in the southeast.

Here in Atlanta, people thought they were losing their minds lol.

We hope everyone was safe and property wasn’t damaged too badly.
