Reactions from multiple states are pouring in on social media minutes after a magnitude 4.8 earthquake hit a New Jersey town, reverberating across much of the Northeast. 

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul posted on X that the quake was felt throughout the state.

"My team is assessing impacts and any damage that may have occurred, and we will update the public throughout the day," Hochul wrote. 

New York Mayor Eric Adams had been briefed on the quake, his spokesperson Fabien Levy said, adding,

"While we do not have any reports of major impacts at this time, we're still assessing the impact."

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy said that his office activated the state's emergency operations center to assess any potential damage, according to YahooNews.

"Please do not call 911 unless you have an actual emergency," Murphy added.

Speaking to reporters as he left the White House en route to Baltimore to meet with first responders and the families of the victims of last week's bridge collapse, Biden said he had spoken with Murphy about the earthquake.

"He thinks everything's under control," Biden said. "He's not too concerned about it, the governor of New Jersey, so things are all right."

Both Newark Liberty International and John F. Kennedy International Airports issued ground stops following the quake. 

ABC 7 News also reported updates from the FDNY, NYPD, MTA, and New York City Department of Education.

The FDNY and NYPD both said there were no immediate reports of damage, but both agencies are monitoring the situation.

The MTA reported just before 11 a.m. that there was no damage or service disruption to the New York City subway system.

The New York City Department of Education said there are no indications of any compromised buildings at NYC schools but staff are inspecting buildings to ensure safety. They say the safest place for kids right now is in school.
