Small earthquake recorded in N.B. Sunday morning


There was a small earthquake in northern New Brunswick early Sunday morning. According to Natural Resources Canada, a 2.6-magnitude earthquake was recorded in a wooded area just south of Mount Carleton Provincial Park at 4:23 a.m AT. "It would be very locally felt, if any," said Stephen Crane, a research scientist with Natural Resources Canada. "So a 2.6 is really small compared to what we would expect to cause damage," he said. "It is a good reminder that an earthquake really could occur anytime, anywhere," he said.
