Is my Apple ID hacked?

When I sign onto my Apple account from from my PC in Highland, UT, I get a popup message on my iPhone saying someone is trying to log on with my ID from Helena, MT. Have I been hacked?

If this is an e-mail you received, or a popup on the screen,  about the time you were actually logging in, there is probably nothing to worry about. The location is where your ISP reported it. If their servers are in a location distant from you, there will be a large error. Based on other posts I have read, the distant error can be very large.
