**Earthquakes in the Northeast: History and Recent Activity** The Northeast region of the United States has experienced earthquakes throughout its history. Here are some notable events: * **2011 Richmond, Virginia Earthquake:** In August 2011, a magnitude 5.9 earthquake struck near Richmond, Virginia, causing widespread shaking and minor damage. * **Connecticut Earthquakes:** From January 1980 to January 2022, Connecticut recorded 364 earthquakes with magnitudes ranging up to 4.0. * **1783 Westchester-Putnam Earthquake:** Records from the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory indicate that a magnitude 5.0 earthquake may have occurred along the Westchester-Putnam county line in 1783. * **1980-1984 Connecticut Earthquakes:** Between October 1980 and October 1984, Connecticut experienced six earthquakes of magnitude 3.0 or greater and five earthquakes between 2.0 and 2.9. It is important to note that the Northeast region is not considered to be a highly seismic area, but earthquakes can and do occur. Residents should be aware of the potential for earthquakes and take necessary precautions, such as creating earthquake preparedness plans and securing furniture in their homes.

**Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Shakes Northeast** This morning, a 4.8 magnitude earthquake rattled the Northeast, shaking buildings from New Jersey to Connecticut. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) confirmed that the quake was felt in parts of both states. In Connecticut, this is the fifth earthquake recorded in the past year, with the largest being a 5.0 magnitude event in Old Mystic in 2023. The earthquake occurred around 10:23 am EDT and was centered near Sparta, New Jersey. Initial estimates suggest that the quake had a magnitude of 4.8. People in several towns in Connecticut, including Norwalk, Stamford, and New Haven, reported feeling the tremors. No major damage or injuries have been reported so far. However, authorities are urging residents to check their homes and businesses for any structural damage. The Northeast is not known for frequent seismic activity, but earthquakes can occur anywhere. Experts advise residents to be prepared for future events by creating an emergency plan and having a supply of food, water, and other essentials on hand.
