A 4.8 magnitude earthquake recorded in New Jersey that shook residents in surrounding states and New York City on Friday morning was one of the strongest in state history. • The temblor was reported about 5 miles north of Whitehouse Station, New Jersey, at about 10:23 a.m. Friday, according to the United States Geological Survey. The epicenter was about 45 miles from New York City, where residents reported shaking furniture and floors. • No major disruptions or damage have been reported in New Jersey or New York. • We have activated our State Emergency Operations Center. Please do not call 911 unless you have an actual emergency, said New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy. • President Joe Biden spoke with Murphy about the earthquake and the White House is monitoring the situation. • “Earthquakes in this region are uncommon but not unexpected. It’s likely people near the epicenter are going to feel aftershocks for this earthquake in the magnitude 2-3 range, and there’s a small chance there can be an earthquake as large or larger, following an earthquake like this,” Paul Earle, a seismologist at the USGS Earthquake Hazards Program told reporters. “In terms of our operations, this is a routine earthquake … Immediately we knew this would be of high interest and important to people who don’t feel earthquakes a lot.” • Read more: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n... • #earthquake #newjersey #newyork
