The top local stories this morning from the KERA Newsroom: A 2.4 magnitude earthquake rattled Irving early this morning, a few hours before seismologists with the U.S. Geological Survey planned to meet with city and state officials.

And today's Vital Signs report looks at the risk of drowning in portable pools.

You can listen to North Texas stories weekdays at 8:20 a.m. and 6:20 p.m. on KERA 90.1 FM.

Former KERA staffer Krystina Martinez was an assistant producer. She produced local content for Morning Edition and KERANews.org. She also produced The Friday Conversation, a weekly series of conversations with North Texas newsmakers. Krystina was also the backup newscaster for the Texas Standard.
