The quake was centered 124 miles east-northeast of West Seneca, New York, and occurred at a depth of 186 miles around 6:15 am, according to the US Geological Survey (USGS). This is the third earthquake in the past 7 days, and the fourth in the past 30 days, to hit the region with a magnitude of 1.5 or greater. Last year, a magnitude 2.2 earthquake rattled the area, while a magnitude 3.6 earthquake struck Adams, New York. Although the earthquake was relatively minor, it was felt by residents in several counties, including Erie, Wyoming, Genesee, and Livingston in New York, and Essex and Bergen in New Jersey. No damage or injuries have been reported at this time. The USGS recommends that residents take precautions to prepare for future earthquakes, such as having an emergency plan and preparing an emergency kit.

**Multiple Earthquakes Hit Connecticut, Largest Recorded at Magnitude 1.8** **Ledyard, Connecticut - March 29, 2024** Connecticut has experienced a series of earthquakes in recent days, with the largest measuring magnitude 1.8. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), there have been 15 earthquakes of magnitude 1.5 or greater in the state in the past 24 hours, 3 in the past 7 days, and 4 in the past 30 days. The strongest earthquake occurred at 12:25 PM EDT on Thursday, March 28th, and was centered near Ledyard. The quake shook buildings and caused residents to report feeling a rumbling sensation. The USGS reports that the earthquake was followed by several smaller aftershocks, including one measuring magnitude 0.9. There have been no reports of injuries or damage as a result of the earthquakes. Seismologists are monitoring the situation and say that it is too early to determine whether the recent activity is part of a larger seismic event. They advise residents to be prepared for potential aftershocks and to take necessary precautions.

**Earthquake Rocks New York City, Residents Awakened by Tremors** **January 2, 2024** Residents of New York City were startled awake on Tuesday morning by a rare earthquake that shook buildings and homes across the city. The magnitude 1.7 quake, reported by the United States Geological Survey (USGS), occurred at around 5:45 a.m. local time. The earthquake was centered near the borough of Queens, and was felt in parts of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx. According to the USGS, the quake had a depth of 10.2 kilometers (6.3 miles). While the earthquake was relatively small in magnitude, it was still strong enough to cause shaking and jolting throughout the city. Residents reported feeling their buildings sway and shake, and some reported hearing windows rattle. There were no immediate reports of any major damage or injuries as a result of the quake. However, the USGS has urged residents to be aware of the potential for aftershocks and to take precautions to secure any loose objects in their homes. Earthquakes are relatively rare in New York City, but they do occur occasionally. The last major earthquake to hit the city was a magnitude 5.8 quake in 1884. Geologists say that the earthquake that struck on Tuesday was likely caused by seismic activity along the Ramapo Fault, which runs through parts of New York and New Jersey. The Ramapo Fault is considered to be a relatively inactive fault, but it can still produce earthquakes from time to time. Residents are advised to stay informed about earthquake preparedness measures and to have an emergency plan in place in case of a larger earthquake.
