An earthquake shook the Northeast on Friday, along with aftershocks throughout the day. We have live team coverage of the impact and cleanup efforts in New York and New Jersey.
@@ChatGPT1111 Okay but like... you realize there's an actual difference in survival in an earthquake when you're in the middle of an open field vs being surrounded by or possibly inside of one of any many tall buildings that probably weren't engineered to survive such an incredibly rare quake.
In January 12 /2010 we had an earthquake 7.1 magnitude in Haiti and it last 35 second more than 300.000 people died and I was there,I will never forget that moment.
I was in the Alaskan earthquake in 1964 which was a 9.2 ! I will never forget it, I remember every little detail about that day. It was good Friday and my sister's school was closed which was a good thing because the roof collapsed.
@rubyred3860 Not many died directly from the earthquake. FYI in downtown Anchorage,AK only 9 people lost. But following tsunami measured as high as 180ft killed 100+
I felt the shaking in my home and my first thought was the washing machine must have been off balance. But the shaking was so severe I was like like "OH NO!! THE WASHING MACHINE IS GOING TO TEAR ITSELF APART!!" Ran downstairs and it wasn't running. "Huh... oh! that must have been an eathquake!"
@googleuser868 no "boom" just violent shaking and a lot of noise. I'm pretty sure a brick in a washing machine on spin cycle would have the same effect. But like.. every room in your house has a brick in a washing machine at the same time.
Matthew 24:7 King James Version 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. Read all of Matthew 24
One lady spokesperson this AM on MSNBC was stating according to her that "its not the shaking you think but kind of shifting....". As a native San Franciscan, I need to tell you EACH EARTHQUAKE IS DIFFERENT. Some roll, some deeply rumble as you hear them coming, some JOLT, and SOME definitely SHAKE. There are many different types of earthquake feels.
Since you watch MSNBC, I can’t upvote your statement. But I will include you, as well as all of you who have gone thru this. I grew up in earthquake country in Southern California. We had plenty of them, and most caused much havoc. Stay safe.
That's true it depends how deep it is too and how far you are from the epicenter. The rule of thumb out here in California is this: the farther away you are from the epicenter and / or the deeper the quake, the slower the motion, like big ocean waves. The closer to the epicenter and/or the shallower the quake, the faster and sharper the movement with sometimes jolts and up and down movement. Add to this of course is the magnitude and type of soil or topography. Quakes in a valley are different then those on the shoreline or in the mountains etc.
Yes, I am Taiwanese, and I was very surprised to see earthquakes in New York. But in comparison, Taiwan has larger earthquakes and aftershocks almost every day. The chance of earthquakes in your city is extremely rare. happened, your buildings were not built to protect against earthquakes. If a larger earthquake occurs in New York, it may bring huge disasters.
Those pesky aftershocks. As a native Californian, I feel for the people on the East Coast. They're not used to the earth suddenly shaking beneath them.
@@megafatman_2682 Pretty much. 4.8 is actually not that bad. The Northridge Quake was 6.7 and I wasn't living in the center. I was clear on the other side of town and it was still strong.
the last earthquake I remember feeling was way back in 2011 when Virginia got I believe around a 5.5 earthquake, unless you live near train tracks like me then yeah we're not used to earthquakes and I'm sure our houses weren't build to handle them (I slept through it personally cause I'm used to my house shaking LOL)
Most people would feel terrified by an earthquake if they've never felt one before, especially in New York in those skyscrapers, which is understandable.
For me, it was the sound that tipped me off. I was sitting at my desk alone in a quiet office when it hit, and at first I thought it was a passing train or truck. But the rumble was DEEP. Like how things sound when you need to pop your ears? Muffled, almost like you could be imagining it. It made me feel a little sick tbh
@goodmorningsundaymorning4533 Do you mean like when he got pissed off and brought a great flood murdering all his children including thousands of babies? What a monstrous god you worship.
I was sitting in my car at Wal-Mart east brunswick NJ it felt like someone was rocking my car then this afternoon it happened again but not as bad. It really shook hard at like 1032 something. Be safe all 🙏
Nice I was in the same exact town just a half mile from there, my parents house is close by too. I work in a warehouse so I thought it was a huge truck passing by.
in 2001, I went through a 6.8 quake where the epicentre was only 11 miles from my house in Olympia, WA. luckily, it was 33 miles deep. it still shook hard enough to do a fair amount of damage.
I was in the Bay Area in 1989 when the Loma Prieta earthquake hit. It felt like a giant grabbed the pavement I was walking on and violently yanked it backwards. I fell forward and barely kept from faceplanting. In the split second before I realized other people also felt it, my first thought was that a blood vessel in my brain had burst and instantly destroyed my ability to regulate balance. First thing that came to my mind.
You can check the "921 Major Earthquake" in Taiwan in 1999. The earthquake occurred at 1 o'clock in the morning. Many people in Taiwan were sleeping at that time. The huge earthquake destroyed Taiwan's mountainous areas and cities. Many people were crushed to death by the rubble in their sleep. The building collapsed, leaving more than 3,000 people dead and missing.
We have so many beautiful similarly styled homes and buildings here in Detroit too!! Richardsonian Romanesque architecture is one of many references to - as you’ve so aptly entitled, “magical” architecture. 🥹😍😍😍✨
I remember watching a Movie back in the 90s about an earthquake in LA. Scared the witts out of me as a child. Taiwan just had an earthquake too. Prayers that everyone gets the support they need❤
I am in the Los Angeles area, I have been Through many earthquakes, large and small. My thoughts and prayers are with you in New York and New Jersey. The magnitude of earthquake there today is very similar to the aftershocks we had from the 1994 Northridge earthquake. I hope all of you back east never have to go through the magnitude of earthquake we had in Northridge in 1994.
Thank you from here in Jersey for understanding and prayers. Earthquakes don't commonly happen over here, this was super terrifying we hope it won't happen again. The Northridge quake must have been awful, glad you survived!
My coworker was in my office talking to me at the time (Hillsborough NJ, about 15 miles from the epicenter) That deep loud scary rumble started and then the whole building jumped, we both literally thought we just got nuked. We shook hands and said been great knowing ya 🤣
Oh for pity sake! As if praying is going to do any good. These are natural phenomena that occur and have occurred fir millennia. Gods and prayer have absolutely nothing to do with it.
I was right near the epicenter and I gotta say, that was very intense.. Felt like my apartment was going to explode.. like a low, but loud thundering roll from underneath me.. was so intense I felt it in my soul! Was amazing.. It originally was subtle, I looked at my cat and he had all his arms/leg spread as if to say, "WTF was that?" Then 2 seconds later it quickly got louder and louder. I thought it was about to be a gas explosion, because the day prior my neighbor left their gas stove on, causing a whole situation. Wasn't until it continued that I realized it was an Earthquake. Not gonna lie it was quite terrifying for that short period of time.. gave me brief anxiety.
I’m from NJ, and that earthquake really scared my whole family! We felt lots of shaking and our whole neighborhood even had to come outside and check it out.
Even Taiwan! I live in northern Canada, so the closest thing to one I felt is when they did blasting nearby. I was just in NYC a few weeks ago! Im just glad everyone's ok!
Praying y'all do. Cuz my partner lives in an old apartment, thankfully in the sheepshead area, so quite away from the epicenter, but still felt aftershocks just a few hrs ago

Were you here for the August 2011 Earthquake? Coincidentally we also had a Hurricane 2 days later (Irene). Today we have an Earthquake with the epicenter 6 miles away from Trumps Bedminster Golf course (maybe God is mad at him lol) that affected the entire tri-state area, and we will have a 90% partial eclipse in 3 days. Mostly coincidence, but feels very eerie, like Earth is angry at us, and the cosmos may be in agreement.
It should be noted that Charleston SC and Boston were both destroyed by earthquakes. NYC and Montreal amo g many are other areas that could be devastated. 6:53
I was out there In Kingdom City Missouri when they had the Earthquake in Central Illinois i can’t remember the Date. 2010 or 2008. But we Felt the Tremors all the way through Central Missouri. They just had a 2.3 In Illinois just a Few hours ago.
Imagine lived in Westchester Country, about 50 minutes outside of New York City. We lived about 20 minutes from the Indian Point nuclear power plant. Imagine finding out, many years after it was built, that the northern terminus of the Ramapo fault was right under the power plant. That’s right. They had built a nuclear power plant right at a fault line. When that made the news, Westchester County was obliged to put an evacuation plan together just in case. They did, but on examination, the reality was that it was really impossible to evacuate the number of people living in the area in case an earthquake caused a power plant disaster. Forget Westchester County for a moment. The nuclear power plant was about 35 miles from the center of midtown Manhattan, as the crow flies. It was finally closed in 2021, after being on line for 45 years. Great planning right there.
Revelations visions shows NYC being ripped open by a hole in the Earth and then years later it gets replaced with nature, green, grass, the Earth. I don’t believe NYC will be here when Jesus returns.
“Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another.”-Matthew. 24:7
I was in the SF Bay Area for one little earthquake (my first) and the next day nobody was talking about it. So I asked a local and he said, that’s not an earthquake. Unless it’s 7.0+ they don’t even care.
For all you folks not use to these Earthquakes, the first thing you ask is the depth of the quake….of course magnitude matters but the depth is the key….usually single digit depth no matter how big is going to be felt through a wide area.
Just hearing the words New York City and Earthquake spoken in the same sentence is wild. Im 41 going on 42 and never experienced Earthquakes (Hurricanes and Tornadoes yes, Earthquakes no) until 12 years ago right here in NYC when that 5.8 hit Virginia, but that wasn’t really the Northeast we just felt it because it was shallow and Quakes on the east coast travel farther than the west coast. But todays was in the Northeast just west of the City, makes you take pause. And then just in January while weak yes, our very own fault line in NYC which it seems many people are unaware we have had a 1.7 quake with the epicenter on Roosevelt Island. But quakes have happened historically here before but now they are getting stronger. Seems the East Coast is no longer safe from Earthquakes.
I felt the earthquake here in Chelmsford MA. It was very mild here, I felt the apartment building I live in mildly sway back and forth while I was sitting by my desk. If felt like a mild dizzy spell that I sometimes get, but nothing moved or fell off shelves. It almost felt like a huge truck had gone by outside. Not many people who live in this town even noticed it. Guess only if you were in the upper stories of a building would it have been felt.
We get hundreds of quakes a day here in NZ most you don't feel. They average 4,5 or 6 surprised to see damage there for such a mild quake but understand why. Hope you cope ok and get through it as you aren't used to it as we kiwi's are in our shakey Isles.
We aren’t used to earthquakes in this part of the US. Very uncommon, so the buildings aren’t as well-equipped to handle them. Those houses also looked older which is why they sustained damage.
Hallelujah!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻was owning a loan of $47,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery (David), Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $8,000 and got my payout of m $270,500 every months,God bless Chloe Linda Henderson 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸..
After I raised up to 325k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states 🇺🇸🇺🇸 also paid for my son's surgery (Oscar). Glory to God.shalom.
Wow that's nice She makes you that much!! please is there a way to reach her services, I work 3 jobs and trying to pay off my debts for a while now!! Please help me.
I was in Nepal in April 2015 when i experienced 7.8 quake followed by 8.1 the next day. Both were a minute long and i remember staying outside for at least a month. My dad makes copper sculptures which are normally 2 floors tall and in the workshop i remember seeing those heavy metallic sculptors shift front and back and left to right. Just imagine how big this was.
I don't want much! I just want the person reading this to be healthy, happy, and loved! Wishing you a good day full of nothing but positivity, my friend 💕
Man, as a Utah/Socal native these things don't really bother me, but I feel for you all. If you don't have the seismic codes or experience this has got to be scary. Glad it wasn't above a 5. That's when I start to pay attention. Better to have a few small ones than one big one.
I live in Philadelphia and I live on the top floor of a high rise apartment building. We felt the earthquake all the waydown here. My building shook like it was on rubber bands !! I wasn't scared but it felt weird. Knowing the damage that an earthquake can do, I fear for the safety and integrity of our highways and bridges. The next time a bridge collapses, like it did in Baltimore a few weeks ago, it won't be caused by a ship hitting it but because almost no attention has been paid to funding the repairs and upkeep and another major disaster, could be waiting in the wings.😮
We felt it over here in Pennsylvania north of Philadelphia. I actually got a chance to see the fault line in person. You can visit Crystal Cave in Kutztown Pennsylvania and once in the cave you descend to a section where the fault line is clearly visible horizontal between two sections of different colored rock. It’s actually really cool. I wonder if the cave noticed a measurable shift.
I had a dream that my house was being directly hit by a tornado. I was just standing there watching my house slowly disintegrate around me, with the winds shaking everything violently. Then I was woken up by everything shaking. I literally panicked and thought "Oh sh*t! Its real!" I'm in the suburbs of Philly, so it wasn't quite so bad here. I hope all in the area are fine and that rebuilding and recovering is quick!
