An earthquake shook the densely populated New York City metropolitan area Friday morning, the U.S. Geological Survey said, with residents reporting they felt rumbling across the Northeast.
The agency reported a quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.7, centered near Lebanon, New Jersey, or about 45 miles west of New York City and 50 miles north of Philadelphia.
Mayor Eric Adams said in a social media post just before noon that preliminary reports “do not indicate major life safety or infrastructure issues from the earthquake.” He said the city is performing thorough inspections of critical areas.
