Central Arizona was jolted by a series of earthquakes Sunday night, with tremors felt in cities as wide as 160 miles apart.

CNN reports that three earthquakes occurred near Black Canyon City, Arizona. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the first quake hit with a magnitude of 3.2, close to 9 p.m., local time. A second 4.1 temblor hit two hours later, with a 4.0 quake following twenty minutes after.

The quakes ranged from 3-6 miles in depth, the UGS said.

Black Canyon City resident Tami Barto spoke to The Associated Press about the incident. "It did worry me. It was quite a shake," said Barto, adding there was no damage to her home or the service station where she works.

Residents in Phoenix 45 miles out from Black Canyon also felt the tremors, as well as people from Cave Creek, Peoria, Scottsdale and Glendale.

Councilwoman Lauren Kuby of Tempe City told the Arizona Republic of her experience. "I just heard this rumble and this movement and I thought it was my dog falling off the bed," she said. "It felt like a rumble and a slight movement and then like a thud."

Some took to Twitter to post their reactions.

While earthquakes are relatively rare in Arizona, they have occurred. The last notable quake was a 4.7 that hit the Sedona area in north-central Arizona in fall of 2014. Another significant occurrence was the 2009 series of quakes in Baja California, which ranged in magnitude from 5.0 to 6.9, and were felt as far north as Phoenix.

Zachary Reeves of the U.S. Geological Survey in Golden, Colorado, said while these quakes were not particularly powerful, they were unusual in that the smaller magnitude quake came first.

"It's not common, but it does happen where you get small foreshock and that triggers a larger event," Reeves said. "Typically the first shock is the main one and everything after is at least a magnitude smaller. This is definitely not common."

No injures were reported in the event.
