A preliminary 4.8-magnitude earthquake struck near Lebanon, New Jersey, Friday, shaking the ground from New York City to Philadelphia and beyond.The USGS says the quake originated near Whitehouse Station, New Jersey, around 10:30 a.m. Eastern time. A 2.0-magnitude aftershock was recorded about an hour later near Bedminster. USGS figures show the quake could have been felt by more than 42 million people.
Kathy Hochul said there are no immediate reports of life-threatening injuries, but they're watching for upticks in hospital visits or vehicle crashes. Infrastructure teams have been sent to check major bridges and other structures for damage. Residents in the Northeast say they felt shaking for several minutes, likening it to when the washing machine is off balance in your home, "but way more intense."
