SARANAC LAKE -- A magnitude 4.7 earthquake in east-central Canada was felt as far south as New York's Adirondack Mountains.
The Adirondack Daily Enterprise reports that residents of Saranac Lake felt a rocking sensation and saw walls shake during the quake at about 1:30 p.m. Wednesday.
Canada's earthquake reporting center says the temblor was detected in Lachute, Quebec, and there were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.
Wednesday's event was not as powerful as the 5.0 magnitude quake on June 23, 2010 which was felt as far south as Central New York.
Lachute is about 52 miles northwest of Montreal and 86 miles northeast of Ottawa.
