Hundreds of people in eastern Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut took to social media on Friday to report feeling shaking or hearing a “boom” type noise, but the U.S. Geological Survey said what they felt was definitely not a temblor.

Did you feel it, Granite State residents? A small earthquake hit New Hampshire on Saturday afternoon. The earthquake reached a magnitude of 1.7 and was centered about 3.3 miles northeast of Contoocook, which is near Concord, the U.S. Geological Survey said. The minor quake hit just after 6 p.m., according to the USGS. There are no reports of any damage.

Following Sunday morning’s earthquake, one question a lot of people are asking each other: Did you feel it? An overwhelming amount of New Englanders are saying yes, generating a ton of reaction on social media.
