The U.S. Geological Survey says several earthquakes were recorded in south-central Kansas and northern Oklahoma this weekend, but no significant damage was reported.

The Kansas City Star reports that one earthquake with a 3.2 magnitude was recorded Saturday night near Hutchinson, Kansas, which is about 50 miles (80.46 kilometers) northwest of Wichita, Kansas. That tremor was reportedly felt as far away as Concordia, Kansas.

In northern Oklahoma, a 3.0 magnitude earthquake was reported near Fairview around 1 a.m. Sunday. Another earthquake with a 2.6 magnitude hit near Quinton in eastern Oklahoma around 1:30 a.m. Sunday.

A different earthquake with a 2.7 magnitude rattled Waukomis in northern Oklahoma at 4:25 p.m. Saturday.
