New York City just felt the impacts of a 4.8 magnitude earthquake with an epicenter of Lebanon, New Jersey.
Mayor Eric Adams is being briefed. While we do not have any reports of major impacts at this time, we’re still assessing the impact.
If you are in danger, please dial 911. To report non-emergency issues please call 311. Communicate your status so others know you’re okay. Text messages are more likely to go through when phone lines are busy. Check on your neighbors if safe to do so.
Please follow NYCEM - Notify NYC.
