An earthquake measuring 4.2 in magnitude struck central Indiana near Kokomo this morning. No damages were reported.

It's the second earthquake this year within range of Chicago. Back in June a quake measuring 5.7 on the Richter scale occurred near Ottawa, IL. Some in the Chicago area are reporting that they felt this morning's earthquake, but it's unknown whether a 4.2 quake can be felt this far away, or if it's wishful thinking on the part of those who claim they felt it.
