**Largest Earthquake in Rochester's History Shakes Up Western New York** Rochester, NY - A powerful earthquake measuring 3.8 magnitude struck near Rochester, New York, early Monday morning, making it the largest earthquake ever recorded in the region. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the epicenter of the quake was located in the suburb of West Seneca, east of Buffalo. The quake occurred at approximately 5:45 AM, sending tremors through parts of upstate New York. Residents reported feeling the quake as far away as Rochester and Syracuse. Some reported shaking furniture, rattling windows, and even brief power outages. The earthquake is the largest to hit Rochester since records began. Previous significant quakes included a 3.4 magnitude earthquake in 2017 and a 3.0 magnitude quake in 2016. The USGS has not reported any major damage or injuries as a result of the quake. However, experts are urging residents to check their homes and businesses for any potential damage. Scientists are still investigating the cause of the earthquake. New York State is not typically considered a seismically active region, but small earthquakes can occur occasionally. Residents are advised to be prepared for potential aftershocks, which can occur in the days or weeks following a major earthquake. The USGS recommends having an emergency plan in place and knowing what to do when an earthquake strikes.
