The tremor, the epicenter of which was located in Cache valley, shuddered with varying intensity through a five state area at 6:30 a.m. It rumbled and rattled in Brigham City with a ferocity that shook beds and buildings. The police department was besieged by phone calls and residents in their night clothes were a common sight as they gathered outside at the early hour to talk about the natural phenomenon. Neither the sheriffs office nor the police department received any reports of damage.
