An earthquake with a magnitude of 5.9 shook Temple campuses across Pennsylvania mid-Tuesday afternoon.
The earthquake struck nearly thirty-five miles northwest of Richmond, Va., but tremors have been reported to be felt in states all throughout the Northeast.
Temple Ambler confirmed reports of an earthquake via Twitter. The official Twitter of Ambler declared the magnitude of the earthquake a 5.8 via a seismometer installed on campus just last year.
A TU Alert message was sent out to students nearly an hour after the earthquake struck to report that no damages to facilities have been found.
