A 4.8 magnitude earthquake in the Northeast has caused disruptions in air travel, affecting several major airports in the region. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has reported that flights to New York Kennedy, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Newark airports are currently on hold.
Following the earthquake, the air traffic control tower at Newark Liberty airport was evacuated as a precautionary measure. Controllers were in the process of relocating to an alternate location, leading to the temporary suspension of flights in and out of the airport.
