Rare earthquake shakes...

northern Illinois early this morning, with an epicenter located about 50 miles northwest of Chicago. Here's the USGS report on the 3.8 mag event and the community intensity map.

No damage or injuries have been reported. Claims of some nearby residents being "tossed out of bed" seem exaggerated.

UPDATE: Here's a follow-up article.
