The 6.1-magnitude earthquake, reported as the strongest in the region in around 150 years, originated off the west coast of Cuba and was felt across parts of Florida, including Orlando and Miami.
The earthquake caused concern across several cities as buildings shook and people were asked to evacuate some structures. Reports said that the tremors were experienced in Florida's Flagler County as well.
Authorities quickly moved to reassure residents and visitors. The National Weather Service stated that there was no tsunami threat to the United States, issuing an update that said there was "no tsunami" and "no danger." However, officials from the US Geological Survey noted that aftershocks could still occur following an earthquake of this size and said reports from people who felt the tremors were continuing to come in.
