**New York City and Buffalo Struck by Earthquakes** In a series of seismic events, New York City and Buffalo have been hit by earthquakes in recent days. **Buffalo Experiences Strongest Earthquake in Decades** On Tuesday, a magnitude 1.7 earthquake struck the Buffalo area, the strongest quake in 40 years. Residents reported feeling their homes shake like they had been hit by a car. **New York City Shaken by Magnitude 1.7 Earthquake** Later that same day, New York City was also jolted by a magnitude 1.7 earthquake. While smaller than the Buffalo quake, residents reportedly felt buildings shaking. **Follow-Up Magnitude 2.2 Earthquake** On Friday, a magnitude 2.2 earthquake was felt in parts of New York and New Jersey. No significant damage has been reported from any of the earthquakes. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the earthquakes are part of a sequence of seismic activity that has been occurring in the region for several months. The USGS believes that the quakes are caused by movement along the Ramapo Fault, a major geological fault line that runs through New York and New Jersey. While the earthquakes have caused concern among residents, experts say that they are unlikely to cause major damage or injuries. However, they recommend that people be prepared for future quakes and know what to do in the event of an emergency.
