It’s an unusual weather day in late December across Kentucky, and not just because of the record-breaking temperatures in the 70s.
The National Weather Service in Louisville reported an earthquake in Central Kentucky. Dylan Ballard, the nicest man in Kentucky sports media, is a Madison County native who felt the earth shake on Sunday afternoon. “It sounded like a bomb went off,” said Ballard. “Crazy experience!”
The 3.1 magnitude earthquake happened at approximately 12:47 PM ET between Lancaster and Richmond near the Madison and Garrard County line, not far from the Kentucky River.
