Massive 4.8 Earthquake Hits New York by HonNL: 5:16pm On Apr 05

A strong earthquake rattled New York City and the surrounding area Friday morning.

It happened at approximately 10:20 a.m.

The quake - which the USGS has said was either 4.7 or 4.8 - was centered near Whitehouse Station, New Jersey, 40 miles west of New York City, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

So far, there have been no reports of damage.

The impact was felt throughout the Tri-State Area, including upstate in Syracuse, as well as in Philadelphia and as far away as Baltimore. Reports of buildings shaking and rattling came in from New Jersey to Long Island.

Gov. Phil Murphy said New Jersey has activated its Emergency Operations Center, and urged residents to not call 911 unless they are experiencing an actual emergency.

The MTA said is inspecting all New York City-area bridges and tunnels. No damage has been reported at this point.

"I was laying in my bed, and my whole apartment building started shaking. I started freaking out," one New York City resident told CBS New York's Elijah Westbrook.

Cracks in walls were visible in an apartment in Berkeley Heights, N.J.

It's not the first time the East Coast and New York City have been hit with a quake. A 5.0 quake was measured in New York City in 1884.

There's a major fault lin New Jersey called the Ramapo Fault, which stems from the Appalachian mountains, and there are at least five smaller fault lines under Manhattan island.

The quake comes just a few months after the USGS warned nearly 75% of the United States could face damaging quakes in the next 100 years.

In 2011, a 5.8 quake struck in Virginia and rattled the entire East Coast.

Thunder struck the statue of Liberty after Biden led Nomerica turns its back on ISRAEL, the apple of God's eye and America most trusted allay

Now 4.8 Magnitude EARTHQUAKE strikes Newyork. The most Powerful in mordern times.
The biggest since 1884.

These are some Mighthy Divine Orchestrations and Warnings!!

ISRAEL is the apple of God's Eyes. When You Stretch your Hands against ISRAEL, you poking GOD in HIS Eye.

GOD is shaking the whole earth and making signs for all to see.

I Fear the GOD of ABRAHAM, ISSAC and ISRAEL.
I advice the you Fear Him too For your own Good.

“what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him”

If you fathom the comic activities and components of the cosmic world, then you will ask same deep question in the Bible David asked,,, Why is God particular about insignificant components like humans in the grand scheme of the universe activities.

...and if that happens, will it affect only that politician alone? Many lives will lost, that's why you people should think of what you wish for. Earthquake or any kinds of tsunami is never what you can ever imagine, God forbid

Anyway, God no be man.
