The powerful magnitude 7.7 earthquake that hit between Cuba and Jamaica Tuesday was picked up on equipment in Wisconsin.
The earthquake registered on a seismograph in Jewell Farm, Wisconsin, which is near Dodgeville - more than 1,600 miles away from the quake's epicenter. Vibrations from the earthquake were picked up by "sensitive instruments," which includes the seismograph.
A read-out from the US Geological Survey shows the seismic activity:
The UWM seismograph also picked up the earthquake.
The USGS says the earthquake hit at 1:10 p.m. CT and was centered 86 miles northwest of Montego Bay, Jamaica, and 87 miles west-southwest of Niquero, Cuba.
