Some Tyroleans were awakened from their sleep in the Lechtal on Thursday night. This was caused by an earthquake with a magnitude of 2.2. The shaking caused no damage.

The epicenter was in the municipality of Bach (district of Reutte). Just before 3:30 a.m., the residents there were awakened from their sleep. “The quakes reached a magnitude of 2.2,” said the Austrian seismological service of the Central Institute of Meteorology and Geodynamics (ZAMG).
