The United States experiences a series of natural phenomena that, on some occasions, represent a danger to the population, including earthquakes. The most common in the United States, as they occur daily in different intensities. For this reason, the USGS (US Geological Survey, for its acronym in English) analyzes each of these earthquakes by collecting data in real time such as the exact time, the location of the epicenter and the magnitude from the states of California, Hawaii, Texas, Alaska and New York, where a strong 4.8 magnitude earthquake occurred in early April. In that context, here I share with you the latest USGS report on today’s earthquakes, Tuesday, April 16.

When were the New York and New Jersey earthquakes?

On Friday, April 5, 2024, a strong earthquake with magnitude 4.8 surprised American citizens living in the states of New York and New Jersey. According to USGS scientists, it is the strongest earthquake in the last 40 years in New York territory and the causes that produced this telluric movement are still being studied. At the moment, the United States Geological Survey is analyzing the theory that it might have been a “sleeping” fault.

“We know that there are no active faults in the region where New York is located, but there are many very old inactive faults in the area, millions of years old, and we are analyzing this,” said Sara McBride, representative of the USGS Earthquake Program in an interview for the Telemundo network.

“It may be possible that one of these old dormant faults has been reactivated and we are looking at this possibility,” he added.

According to the latest study from the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM), around 230 million people in the US might be affected by potential large-magnitude earthquakes within 100 years.

“The new NSHM includes more faults, better characterized land surfaces, and computational advances that provide the most detailed view ever seen of the earthquake risks we face,” explained Mark Petersen, a USGS geophysicist and lead author of the NSHM study.

Why do earthquakes occur in California?

In California there are two tectonic plates: the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. The Pacific Plate is made up of most of the Pacific Ocean floor and the coast of California, while the North American Plate comprises most of the North American continent and parts of the Atlantic Ocean floor.

The main boundary between these two plates is the San Andreas Fault, which is more than 650 miles long and extends to a depth of less than 10 miles. Many other smaller faults, such as the Hayward (Northern California) and San Jacinto (Southern California), branch and join the San Andreas Fault.

Instead, the Pacific Plate is advancing northwestward past the North American Plate at a rate of regarding two inches per year. Parts of the San Andreas Fault system accommodate this movement by constant “slip” that results in many small shakes and some moderate ground tremors.

Seismic zones of the United States, according to the USGS report

The states most likely to register tremors are Texas, California, Alaska, Utah, Virgin Islands, Hawaii, among others, because they are located along the San Andreas Fault, one of the main geological faults in the country.

How should you act before, during and following an earthquake in the United States?

I share with you a useful list of good actions that you should take to be able to face a strong earthquake in the United States or any other country in the world. Put into practice the following security recommendations that I will show you below:

  • Before the earthquake in the United States
  • Constantly check your home’s infrastructure.
  • Install security locks, cabinets and shelves.
  • Store the most fragile items in safe places.
  • Always have a first aid kit.
  • Find an optimal meeting point where there is enough security for your family.
  • Educate your family members so that they can turn off the electricity, gas and water taps.

Make a list of emergency numbers to contact doctors, police, civil protection, among others.

  • During the earthquake or earthquake in the United States
  • Stay away from windows, mirrors and sharp objects that might fall to the ground.
  • Find shelter under a sturdy table or you can also put it under a door frame.
  • Cover your head and neck with your arms.
  • Avoid using elevators and take stairs during the earthquake.

Never run out of a building when the earthquake is moving.

  • After the earthquake in the United States
  • Seek medical help to treat people with serious injuries.
  • Provide first aid and emotional support to injured people who need it.
  • Do not use your mobile phone irresponsibly, this way you will avoid overloading the lines.
  • Check the structural damage to your home.
  • Close the faucets to prevent possible leaks of electricity, water or gas.

Do not light candles, matches or other items that might cause a fire.

The attack was recorded

A live broadcast showed the attack. In the images, a man is seen approaching the altar, with a knife raised, and then attacks the priest, unleashing panic among the parishioners.

Police officers who responded to the incident were attacked by people outside the church, Webb said.

“People used what they had on hand in the area, such as bricks, concrete, stakes, to attack the police” and throw objects at the officers and their vehicles, he added. He stated that the crowd caused damage to regarding 20 police vehicles.

The neighborhood where the attack occurred is home to the small Assyrian Christian community, largely made up of people who fled persecution and war in Iraq and Syria.

A few days following the National Interuniversity Council (CIN) declared the “economic emergency” in public universities due to the budget crisis, in the midst of the inflationary context and the strong increases in energy rates, the teachers and students of the Faculty of Medicine of the UBA go through the university cycle – with the risk of not making it past the month of May – in darkness. In addition, they call for a solidarity hug at the Hospital de Clínicas for this Thursday.

The house of higher education located at Paraguay 2155 was one of the first to abide by “the guidelines to face the budgetary emergency” established this Monday by the Treasury Secretariat of the UBA, and the teaching and student body, the first to suffer the consequences of adjustment. The main measures requested to save costs involve cutting electricity and gas supply in common areas.

In the last few hours, on social networks, some videos of students from the Faculty of Medicine walking through hallways in complete darkness, or standing in long lines to take the only elevator enabled to go up the more than 15 floors of the building, went viral.

The Faculty of Medicine operates without electricity to face the Government’s high tariff.

“Given the million-dollar electricity bill that arrived and that cannot be paid, the Faculty of Medicine (UBA) decided to cut off the electricity supply to all common areas and limit the use of the elevators only to people with reduced mobility. The building has 16 floors,” said a user on the social network

According to the statement from the FMED authorities, they had to take a series of measures in order to “mitigate the inertial growth of spending, which would lead to the impossibility of being able to meet the commitments assumed by the University.”

One of the decisions taken was to “non-use” the air conditioners. The only spaces with permission to do so are “university hospitals for patient care” and where conditioning is necessary “for the correct functioning of equipment and technological infrastructure.”

The “turning off of lighting in naturally illuminated classrooms and offices” and “in common circulation spaces during the daytime period” was also ordered.

As mentioned above, the elevators may be used only by “people with reduced mobility and in cases of assistance or emergency.”

In addition, a few months before the start of winter, the authorities established a cut in the building’s central heating. According to the statement, it was established “the non-use of gas services in the boilers in the University buildings, with the exception of the university hospitals for patient care and the necessary conditioning for the correct functioning of equipment and technological infrastructure.” “.

In response to the brutal adjustment of the Javier Milei government, the national universities called for a mobilization this coming April 23 from Congress to the Casa Rosada starting at 3 p.m.

Meanwhile, within the framework of the budgetary emergency, the Faculty of Medicine called this Tuesday to hold a “solidarity hug to the Hospital de Clínicas” for this Thursday, April 18 at 10.

“Due to the lack of updating in the budget allocated to national universities, not only the faculties are at risk, but also the university hospitals and the university’s social work are on the verge of closure,” they indicated, adding: “It is because That is why we call on the community to commit and adhere to this show of support for our educational and health system.
