A magnitude-3.0 earthquake briefly shook Berkeley at 9:26 p.m. Sunday night.

The earthquake’s epicenter was at Tilden Park, just northeast of campus, and had a depth of 7.4 km, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

The USGS response map, which allows residents to report if they have felt an earthquake, shows tremors were felt in Concord, Vallejo and weakly in San Francisco.
