A small earthquake rattled some nerves on Nova Scotia's south shore on Tuesday.
Earthquakes Canada said the 3.0-magnitude earthquake was reported around 10:40 a.m. and was centered about 42 kilometres southwest of Digby, between Weymouth and Meteghan.
The Earthquakes Canada website says more than a dozen people have reported feeling the earthquake.
It's not the first time residents along the south shore have felt the earth shake beneath their feet.
A 3.8-magnitude quake was reported off the coast of Nova Scotia, about 41 kilometres north northwest of Yarmouth in July 2015.
There was also a 3.2-magnitude quake about 26 kilometres south southwest of Yarmouth this past June.
