An earthquake rattled the Palouse country of southeast Washington early Sunday.

The quake at 12:35 a.m. had a magnitude of 3.5 and was centered about 16-1/2 miles south-southeast of Pullman, the University of Washington geophysics center reported.

It occurred at a depth of 23 miles.

An earthquake of magnitude 3.5 can cause slight damage in a local area, but there were no immediate reports of damage Sunday.
