It wasn't a big one, but big enough to move the Richter scale at the University of Nevada Seismological Lab in Reno. At 1:10 a.m. there was a 1.2 magnitude earthquake Thursday morning 3.7 miles WSW of South Lake Tahoe, 10 miles southwest of Glenbrook.
It was the tenth small earthquake in just over 24 hours in the Sierra, most near Mammoth Lakes, Hawthorne and Bishop.
