A 3.0 earthquake was widely felt in the New York City area, but there were no initial reports of serious injuries or significant damage.

A magnitude 3.0 earthquake centered in New Jersey briefly shook NYC Saturday night, prompting emergency guidance but no major damage.

If the earthquake triggered memories of last year's big shake there are some key differences. Last year's earthquake centered near Tewksbury, New Jersey, was a magnitude 4.8. That's almost 20 times stronger than Saturday night's earthquake.
