A 3.8 magnitude earthquake was recorded at 14.54 in the province of Macerata a few km from Visso, at a depth of 10 km.
The strong shock was also felt in the province of Ascoli and in particular in Arquata del Tronto.
At the moment there are no requests for help or communications of damage to the Macerata firefighters.
In the 'Sae' emergency houses, however, the quake was felt distinctly and a bit of concern spread among the population already severely affected by the shocks of 2016.
