6.1-magnitude earthquake near Mantua, Cuba causes shaking to be felt across Florida<\/p>\n

\"Tyler\"Caroline<\/a><\/p>\n

The effects of a 6.1-magnitude earthquake near Mantua, Cuba, were felt across Florida, as residents of the Gulf Coast reported feeling shaking.<\/p>\n

Viewers from Lee and Collier counties called about feeling shaking this afternoon.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Geological Survey reported the earthquake occurred at approximately 2 p.m.<\/p>\n

According to NOAA and the National Weather Service, there is no tsunami threat as a result of the earthquake.<\/p>\n

There are faults beneath the Gulf, but they are generally not capable of producing the massive vertical seafloor displacement needed for a destructive tsunami, which is why historically there have been virtually no significant locally generated tsunami events.<\/p>\n

This is a developing story.<\/p>\n
