Bridgewater is about an hour or so drive outside of Halifax.
A small earthquake rumbled through Lunenburg County on Monday, sparking reports of loud noises but none of injuries or damages.
Natural Resources Canada registered the 3.2-magnitude tremor at about 12:30 p.m. local time, 19 kilometres southwest of Bridgewater.

Eastern Canada has a lower rate of earthquake activity than the West, but every year there are about 450 earthquakes in the eastern region, Natural Resources Canada says.
Of those tremors, about 30 have a magnitude of 3 or higher, which is strong enough to be felt nearby.
My wife was in Lunenburg yesterday at the exact time of the earthquake. She went for a day-trip with our son, 2 nieces and a nephew. None of them even noticed it.
3.2....I don't think you'd even notice at the epicentre.
