Two cracks formed in the foundation of Joy Yepez-Rice's home on Lake Beecher near Cathcart after a 4.6 magnitude earthquake struck near Monroe on July 12, 2019.

"Sounded like an explosion in the living room," Yepez-Rice wrote in a Facebook message. "Then there was a lull and then the house started to shake. I tried to get out of bed and had to hold onto the bed and dresser. The rocking was so strong I couldn't walk and my perfume bottles slid off the dresser."

The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake struck about 10 miles southeast of Everett. It was about six miles underground.

The earthquake was followed by a series of aftershocks, including a 3.5 earthquake two minutes after the initial quake. 

The Snohomish County Sheriff's Office says it hasn't received any reports of injuries.
