**Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rattles New York and New Jersey** Early Friday morning, a significant earthquake jolted parts of New York and New Jersey. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) reported a magnitude 4.8 temblor that originated in Lebanon, New Jersey, around 5 miles east of the town. The quake sent shockwaves across the region, shaking buildings in New York City and triggering widespread tremors in Westchester County, New York. Damage assessments are currently underway across New Jersey. According to the USGS, over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake, which had a preliminary magnitude of 4.8. The epicenter was located in Tewksbury, New Jersey, approximately 40 miles west of New York City. The earthquake was the strongest to hit the New York City area in 140 years. It is rare to experience earthquakes in the US Northeast, making this event particularly noteworthy. The USGS reported several smaller earthquakes in the region over the past three years, including a 2.1 magnitude quake in Milford, New Jersey, and a 2.4 magnitude event in Tuckerton, New Jersey. Residents in affected areas are advised to monitor for further seismic activity and follow instructions from local officials. Damage assessments and ongoing investigations will provide additional information on the impact of the earthquake.
**Massive Earthquake Rocks Southern California, Largest in Decades** A powerful 4.2-magnitude earthquake struck Southern California on Friday, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) reported. The quake occurred at 11:41 p.m. PST and was centered three miles northwest of Cobb, California. The earthquake was the largest to hit the state in the past three years. In 2019, a 7.1 magnitude earthquake in Ridgecrest caused one fatality and $5.3 billion in damage. The epicenter of the quake was located near the intersection of State Highway 74 and Chuckwalla Road. Shockwaves were felt throughout the region, including in Banning, Palm Springs, and the Coachella Valley. Residents reported feeling strong shaking, with some describing it as the most intense earthquake they had experienced. There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries. The USGS reported that the earthquake was followed by several aftershocks, including a 2.5 magnitude temblor at 12:08 a.m. PST. Scientists are still assessing the potential impact of the earthquake, but they say it is unlikely to cause any major damage. However, the USGS warns that aftershocks may continue for several days or even weeks. Residents in the affected area are urged to check for any structural damage to their homes and businesses and to be prepared for potential aftershocks.
**Magnitude 5.4 Earthquake Shakes Northern California** A strong earthquake measuring magnitude 5.4 struck Northern California on Sunday morning, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The quake occurred at 10:33 am local time, 16 miles west of Ferndale in Humboldt County. The earthquake was felt as far away as the San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento. No significant damage or injuries have been reported, but power outages affected thousands of customers in the region. This is the second major earthquake to hit Northern California in less than two weeks. On December 20, 2022, a magnitude 6.4 quake struck near the town of Eureka, causing widespread damage and power outages. According to experts, the recent seismic activity is related to the Mendocino Triple Junction, where three tectonic plates meet. The area is known for frequent earthquakes, and scientists believe that the recent activity may be a sign of increased strain in the region. Residents in the affected areas are advised to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions, such as securing loose objects and having an emergency plan in place.
