Reports are pouring in from across the New York City metro area after a 3.0 magnitude earthquake struck just outside the city early this morning. The U.S. Geological Survey confirmed the quake’s epicenter was near Oakland, New Jersey — but tremors were felt in Manhattan, the Bronx, and even parts of Brooklyn.

Social media exploded with New Yorkers sharing their shock. “My windows shook, and I thought it was a subway—except I live in the Bronx,” one resident wrote on X. Another said, “My dog started barking like crazy seconds before the shaking. Something’s off.”Earthquakes are rare in this part of the country, but they’re not impossible. Still, this one struck hard enough to be noticed—and feared. No damage has been reported yet, but it’s the psychological impact that’s lingering.
