The last time Idaho had been rocked by such a powerful quake was 36 years ago in 1983, when a 6.9 magnitude earthquake struck east of the Lost River fault zone.

Called the Borah Peak earthquake, it occurred on Oct. 28, 1983, and resulted in two fatalities in Challis, Idaho, and more than $12 million in damages. Five other earthquakes with a magnitude greater than 5 were recorded during the following year.

This latest earthquake occurred near the Challis area as well, with a 4.8 magnitude aftershock occurring in the southwest of Challis about an hour later, reports say. The U.S. Geological Survey forecasts a 4 percent chance of one or more aftershocks larger than 6.5 following the initial quake.

It is likely that there will be smaller quakes over the course of the next week, with several aftershocks already recorded.
