PHOENIX (KPHO/KTVK) -
Three earthquakes were reported near the Phoenix area on Sunday night.
The first occurred at approximately 9 p.m. and registered as a 3.2, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
magnitude 4.1 earthquake was recorded by the U.S. Geological Survey at around 11:30 p.m., followed by a 4.0 earthquake about 20 minutes later.
All three earthquakes were centered about 7 miles north of Black Canyon City.
There are no reports of any damage or injuries.
The earthquakes were felt by people in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Apache Junction, San Tan Valley and other Valley cities. They were also felt by people in cities and towns north of the Valley, as well as New Mexico and Nevada.
Many people are wondering if there will be any aftershocks on Monday, but Zachary Reeves with the U.S. Geological Survey said if there are, they may be too small to be felt.
"Typically, aftershocks can occur for weeks or even months for very big earthquakes, but usually the biggest aftershock is about a magnitude smaller so even if there are aftershocks that we detect, they might not be felt in this area," Reeves said.
