Three small earthquakes, measuring a preliminary 2.7, 3.0 and 3.3 magnitude, struck northeast of San Jose Tuesday morning, according to the United States Geological Survey.

The quakes, centered near Calaveras Reservoir close to the Alameda-Santa Clara County border, hit at 8:16 a.m. 8:36 a.m. and 9:02 a.m., respectively.

The epicenter for all three temblors was about 11 miles northeast of San Jose and about 10 miles southeast of Fremont, the USGS said.

The trio of earthquakes Tuesday came after two 3.4 magnitude quakes shook the same area Sunday evening.
