**Earthquake Activity in New York and Surrounding Areas** In the past 24 hours, New York has experienced several earthquakes with magnitudes of 1.5 and above. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), there have been: * 3 earthquakes with magnitudes greater than 1.5 in the past 7 days * 4 earthquakes with magnitudes greater than 1.5 in the past 30 days The most notable earthquake occurred on Monday morning near Buffalo, New York.

Another earthquake shook parts of Upstate New York and Canada on Sunday afternoon. This quake had a magnitude of 2.8 and was centered near Albany, New York. While these earthquakes have caused some concern, they are relatively common in the region. New York is located in a seismically active area, and it is not unusual for earthquakes to occur occasionally. If you feel an earthquake, it is important to remain calm and follow these steps: * **Drop, cover, and hold on.** If you are indoors, find a sturdy table or desk to get under. If you are outdoors, find a low-lying area away from buildings and trees. * **Stay away from windows and heavy objects.** * **Be prepared for aftershocks.** Aftershocks are common following earthquakes and can occur for days or even weeks after the main event. If you have any questions or concerns about earthquakes, please contact your local emergency management office.

**10th Anniversary of the Tewksbury Earthquake** Ten years ago today, millions of people throughout the eastern US experienced the shaking from a magnitude 5.8 earthquake near Lebanon, New Jersey. The earthquake, which occurred in the early afternoon of August 23, 2011, was the strongest with an epicenter in the NY area since 1884 and the fourth-strongest ever. According to the US Geological Survey, the earthquake was centered near Whitehouse Station, New Jersey, about 40 miles west of New York City. The shaking was felt as far away as Washington, D.C., and Boston. There were no reports of major damage or injuries from the earthquake. However, the shaking caused some minor damage to buildings and infrastructure in the epicentral area. The Tewksbury earthquake was a reminder of the potential for earthquakes in the eastern US. While earthquakes are less common in this region than in the western US, they can still occur and cause significant damage. It is important for people in the eastern US to be prepared for earthquakes. This includes having an earthquake preparedness plan and building an emergency kit. More information on earthquake preparedness is available from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) at www.ready.gov.
