New York City had the shakes this morning as a 4.8 magnitude earthquake rumbled in around 10:23 a.m. https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1776258443495563598 From the New York Times:
The U.S.G.S. reported that the earthquake’s epicenter was in Lebanon, N.J., about 50 miles west of Manhattan. The shaking was reportedly felt in cities from Philadelphia to Boston.
Several East Coast airports issued ground stops halting air traffic in the immediate aftermath. The earthquake shook buildings in Manhattan and throughout the city, sending residents darting into the street wondering what had just happened.
The New York Police Department said it had no immediate reports of damage, but sirens could be heard all over the city.
The last earthquake to hit the NYC metropolitan area was May 2023 when a 2.2 magnitude earthquake shook parts of New York and New Jersey. https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/1776263963530891733
