| The earth continues to shift under Braxton County with another small earthquake recorded at 5:15 a.m. Saturday.
It was the fifth quake reported under the county since April.
The United States Geological Survey says Saturday's quake was a 2.4 magnitude.
The USGS says the earthquake was about six miles west of Sutton, or three miles west of Gassaway.
No reports of damage.
The previous four tremors have measured between 2.6 and 2.8 on the Richter scale.
Some earthquake experts say the tremors could be a sign of worse things to come, but Dr. Dewey Sanderson, chair of the geology department at Marshall University, told WSAZ-TV the geology of Braxton County won't allow for a major earthquake.
One of the quakes was near the Calhoun County line, not far from Elmira.
Following one of the earlier quakes, officials checked the Sutton Dam and found no signs of damage.
A Braxton residence did show damage. New cracks appeared in the foundation and walls at Michael Nottingham's rented home.
People have reported windows and homes shaking in the Gassaway and Frametown areas with no significant damage.
The USGS says earthquakes are not common in West Virginia, but there is a major earthquake fault that comes up the Ohio Valley.
