Our whole building shook, much more than 60=mph wind.
Have a contact in Jersey say they felt it, too.
Nothing on USGS, yet.

Yes. On a zoom call with numerous others in CT all said they felt something. Got a shake for several seconds.

Yes! For a second I thought a large gust of wind that shook the house, I looked out the window and the trees were still.

LOL from the City of New Haven by phone and text:

MAYOR JUSTIN ELICKER
CITY OF NEW HAVEN
Citywide | April 5, 2024 | New Haven Alerts

Hi, this is Mayor Justin Elicker with a message for New Haven residents about the earthquake tremor
we experienced earlier this morning. Por favor, espere para poder escuchar este mensaje en español.

A bit after 10:20 am, the City of New Haven experienced an earthquake tremor that was felt by
residents across the city. According to the United States Geological Survey, the epicenter of this was a
4.8 magnitude earthquake in New Jersey.

At this time, we have no reports of any notable damage to any homes, buildings, or structures in New
Haven. We are continuing to monitor the situation, but based on what we know, there is no need for
any evacuations nor cause for further alarm. However, should you smell gas and suspect a gas leak,
please do call 9-1-1 to report it, so that our first responders can act accordingly.

While it was a scary moment for many, thankfully everyone and everything appears to be okay. Thanks
everyone for your cooperation and stay safe!

Anyone feel the aftershocks, about an hour ago?

I heard it first, a low rumbling, then felt it. I thought it was a military chopper, they fly around here once in a while and the house literally shakes, I can't imagine how loud it is in the chopper. But the sound didn't increase as a chopper would as it got closer, I felt the floor shake a little and in 10 seconds it was over, that was 10:20. I knew it wasn't a chopper and thought it was an earthquake and 10 minutes later WTIC reported it was a quake. At 6:20 during the weather report on channel 3 he said a second quake occurred but I felt and heard nothing.

I didn't feel anything.  It must have been a girly-man quake.  I grew up in New Zealand, and know what a real earthquake feels like.
