Earthquake aftershock rocks New Jersey town nearly one week after 4.8 quake — just one of 46 aftershocks

New Jersey has been hit by more than 45 aftershocks following last week’s 4.8-magnitude earthquake — including one that rattled the Garden State on Wednesday morning.

The 2.6-magnitude quake — the 46th aftershock — hit near Gladstone around 10:22 a.m., the US Geological Survey said.

It was felt by just under 80 people, according to the USGS.

Three more tremors were reported Tuesday, with magnitudes of 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5, NJ Advance Media reports.

There were also four aftershocks reported across Hunterdon County on Monday, including one that came just as the sun was re-emerging from the moon’s shadow, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Dozens more occurred over the weekend.

The strongest aftershock to date came just before 6 p.m. Friday, reaching a magnitude of 3.8 near Gladstone.

All the aftershocks have been centered near the epicenter of Friday’s quake at Whitehouse Station in Hunterdon County, and geologists say even more could be expected in the coming days.

“We do expect aftershocks like this to occur in the days, weeks and months after the main shock, so this is fully within the realm of what is expected,” USGS research geologist Alex Hatem told The Post.

The chance of NYC feeling another rattle, however, is low. A light shake could be possible in the coming days, Hatem said, but nothing like the quake that rocked the Statue of Liberty and City Hall Friday or the aftershock that rippled through later that evening.

The USGS predicts there will be smaller aftershocks through Sunday, with one having the potential to reach a magnitude 3 or higher.

However, it says, there is less than a 1% chance that one or more aftershocks will reach a magnitude of 5 or higher.
