4.1- magnitude earthquake hits off the Oregon coast

A moderate earthquake struck deep in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Oregon early this morning.

The U.S. Geological Survey says a 4.1 magnitude quake hit shortly after 1:40 a.m., about 130 miles west-northwest of Bandon.

The quake’s epicenter was 6.2 miles deep — as deep as a temblor that hit the area on Wednesday — and more than 245 miles west-southwest of Portland.

No tsunami warning was issued.
