The Appalachian Mountains run up and down the east coast, a much older mountain range than the Sierras on the west coast. It is full of fault lines that still do sometimes move and the Hopatcong Fault is one of them, running through NJ and NY.
It is nothing new and has minor movement from time to time. I use to live in central NJ and have felt the earth rumble a couple of times.
Check out "Dutchsinse" on YouTube, (I know), very good info on quakes all over the world. Am sure he will have an upcoming video mentioning this along with a host of other info.
There is a place in NJ called Cheesequake not far from where I use to live, I wonder how it got its name?
