Was it felt in Singida?

The largest nearby quake this month, M4.7 at 49 km, was probably felt in Singida by a rough rule of thumb (an M3 is typically noticed within a few tens of km, an M5 up to a few hundred km; local ground and building type matter a lot).

None of the quakes listed has "Did You Feel It?" reports in the USGS feed, which usually means shaking at the surface was weak or the area has few reporters.

If you felt shaking, you can report it to USGS; reports refine the intensity map within minutes.
