TWO UK towns have been hit by earthquakes on the same day – with homes left “trembling” by 2.3 magnitude tremors.
The British Geological Survey (BGS) said the quakes struck Powys and Ceredigion on Monday morning.
The first tremor hit Llangurig in Powys at 8.37am, measuring 1.0 magnitude.
A second earthquake struck Tregardon in Ceredigion at 9.09am, measuring 2.3 magnitude.
Tremors from the second quake could be felt in the towns of Ystrad Meurig and Aberystwyth.
Locals described “a weak trembling”, rattling mirrors and radio aerials.
One resident told the BGS the “water in my water bottle visibly trembled”.
