This week in Trenton there was minor earthquake ranging from 2.5 to 3 on the Richter Scale. Won-Young Kim, a seismologist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in Palisades, New York, was the one who make this observation of the earthquake. Some residents didn't even realize there was an earthquake brewing up right beneath their feet as they casually did what they needed to do. Some people felt this occurring and mentioned that it felt like an explosion and you could hear your house shake. Won-Young Kim says that,"small earthquakes are not unlikely in New Jersey. This also occurred in Morristown, New Jersey with the same affects.
