Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US
- An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.
- While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.
- Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.
- President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.
