Small earthquake rattles central New Jersey

Authorities say a small earthquake has struck central New Jersey, rattling windows and alarming residents of several communities. Won-Young Kim, a seismologist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in Palisades, N.Y., says a quake with a preliminary magnitude of 3.0 was recorded at 10:34 p.m. Monday, centered in the Morris County communities of Rockaway, Dover and Morris Plains. There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries. Quakes of magnitude 2.5 to 3 are the smallest that can generally be felt by people.

I think it was Picatinny, but no one wants to fess up since they killed someones cat not long ago. I feel if it were an earthquake more people in surrounding towns would have felt it. I live in Wharton, and after the initial boom, i could feel a shockwave that felt more like an explosion....

yeah, picatinny makes a habbit of causing 3.0 magnitude earthquakes with an epicenter 3 miles under ground at 10:30 pm. hmmm... sound logical to me. and you're an expert on explosions, right...
