Just two days after the catastrophic earthquake in Taiwan, New York City experiences its own seismic event. At 10:23 a.m., the Big Apple was rattled by a 4.8 magnitude earthquake, with tremors felt up and down the East Coast from Philadelphia to Boston.

Residents across the city described feeling the ground shake, with eyewitnesses capturing the moment on camera. Networks interrupted programming to cover the breaking news, reflecting the severity of the situation.
The earthquake’s epicenter was in Lebanon, New Jersey, approximately 50 miles west of Manhattan.
