There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries caused by the magnitude 4.8 quake, which struck about 50 miles west of Manhattan.
A rare magnitude 4.8 earthquake rattled New Jersey on Friday and was felt across the New York region. The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake was felt across New York, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries. It struck about 40 miles southwest of Manhattan at 10:23 a.m. Eastern time. The epicenter was less than 1 mile northwest of the unincorporated community of Oldwick in New Jersey.
A large part of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast felt weak shaking, according to people who filed reports to the USGS' 'Did You Feel It?' tracking service. Weak shaking is defined as being felt quite noticeably by people indoors, especially on the upper floors of a building, and may rock standing motor vehicles slightly. Weak shaking was felt from Washington to Maine, including in Boston, Philadelphia, and Albany, N.Y. Earthquakes are not unknown in the eastern United States.
