A magnitude 5.9 earthquake centered 9 miles south of Parkfield in Monterey County shook the Central Coast at 10:15 a.m. today, the U.S. Geological Service has confirmed.

No damage has been reported in Cambria, San Miguel, Paso Robles, Templeton, San Luis Obispo, Morro Bay, Oceano or Nipomo, though the quake was widely felt.

Public safety and emergency response facilities around the county are reporting to radio dispatchers that they have sustained no damage.

The first temblor was followed by a magnitude 5.0 aftershock four minutes later, according to USGS data.

Among the several aftershocks within a half hour of the initial quake, four were above magnitude 4.0.
