**WEB Map Reveals Impact of Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake in New Jersey** On April 5, 2024, a magnitude 4.8 earthquake struck New Jersey, centered in [location]. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has released a web map showing the areas affected by the quake. The quake was felt as far away as Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York City. No significant damage or injuries were reported. The USGS map provides a detailed view of the earthquake's intensity and the areas where shaking was most pronounced. It also includes information on the depth of the quake, which was approximately 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) below the surface. According to the USGS, the earthquake was part of a series of smaller temblors that have been occurring in the region in recent months. Scientists believe that these earthquakes are likely caused by the movement of tectonic plates in the area. The USGS encourages residents to be prepared for earthquakes and to take steps to mitigate their risk. This includes securing heavy objects, stocking up on emergency supplies, and learning about evacuation routes.

**5.1 Magnitude Earthquake Rocks Oklahoma, Followed by Smaller Tremors** Oklahoma City, OK - A strong earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 5.1 struck east of Oklahoma City on Friday night, causing widespread shaking and damage. The quake was followed by several smaller aftershocks, including a 4.2 magnitude tremor on Saturday morning. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the initial earthquake occurred at 11:50 p.m. CST on Friday, October 7, 2022, with an epicenter located approximately 8 kilometers northwest of Prague, Oklahoma. It was the largest earthquake to hit the state in over a year. Witnesses reported feeling strong shaking across central Oklahoma, including in Oklahoma City, Edmond, and Guthrie. Some buildings sustained minor damage, including cracked walls and broken windows. Authorities are currently assessing the extent of the damage. The 5.1 earthquake was followed by a series of smaller aftershocks, including a 4.2 magnitude tremor that struck near Edmond on Saturday morning at 6:50 a.m. CST. Residents across the region continue to report feeling ongoing tremors. Geologists believe that the earthquake was caused by movement along the Meers Fault, a geological fault line that runs through central Oklahoma. The Meers Fault has been responsible for numerous earthquakes in the past, including a 5.6 magnitude quake in 2011 that caused significant damage in Prague. The USGS has issued a warning that additional aftershocks are possible in the coming days and weeks. Residents are advised to take precautions, such as securing heavy objects and having an emergency plan in place.
