An earthquake just rocked NYC, New Jersey, and the surrounding areas

If you just felt the room shake a little, it’s not just you. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) just confirmed that an earthquake hit Lebanon, New Jersey, with people located in New York, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania feeling its effects.

“It lasted just long enough to be unsettling,” said one Verge staffer who experienced it in Jersey City. Others based in New York noted it felt like a particularly large truck driving by, with most agreeing it last about five to six seconds.

The below map from the USGS shows people feeling weak or light shaking along the coast of the Northeast, with some reports reaching as far north as Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and upstate New York. It looks like people felt the quake in Maryland and Delaware as well.

Earlier this year, a 1.7-magnitude earthquake hit near Astoria, Queens, causing some power outages in the surrounding area.
