Did you feel it?

New Yorkers were shaken on Saturday night after an earthquake from New Jersey hit parts of the city.

“I felt the house move,” said Madeline Ramos, of Clason Point.

“I wasn’t sure if it was just the building or something happening in the next room,” said Giordano, of Bay Ridge.

“It is very shocking,” said Dhamir Morfe-Chess, of Clason Point. “I was like, ‘woah, what the heck?'”

The shockwaves shocked some people to the point that they went running, as seen on surveillance video from New Jersey.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) said the 3.0 magnitude earthquake occurred as the result of “faulting at shallow depths of the crust.”

Thomas Pratt, research geophysicist with USGS, said a magnitude of that size can cause gentle rocking.

"A lot of people would feel it,” he explained. “It's very distinctly an earthquake, but it's not enough to knock you off your feet. It's not enough to do damage or anything like that."

Pratt said a quake like this is becoming more common.

“Magnitude 1, 2, 3 earthquakes occur up and down, throughout the eastern U.S.,” he said. “We get a couple dozen per year."

Officials say if you ever find yourself in an earthquake, you should drop, take cover and hold onto something sturdy. You should also stay clear of any windows.

New York City’s Office of Emergency Management said there were no reports of major damage.
