Why in the world are they sending this out half an hour (or more) after the fact?

No but having a car drive down the runway making sure everything is okay makes perfect sense.

My question is why a whole bunch of EWR flights were diverted to ABE, that's nuts.

They couldn't land in EWR because some idiot was walking around on the runway.

Is this SOP for earthquakes, or just stupid bureaucracy?

I actually felt it.  I was on a third floor (top floor) of a house(Brooklyn), and all of a sudden we feel like a small shaking and the ceiling was creaking... So I said jokingly, maybe it's an earthquake....

בְּשָׁעָה שֶׁהַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא זוֹכֵר אֶת בָּנָיו שֶׁשְּׁרוּיִים בְּצַעַר בֵּין אוּמּוֹת הָעוֹלָם מוֹרִיד שְׁתֵּי דְמָעוֹת לַיָּם הַגָּדוֹל, וְקוֹלוֹ נִשְׁמָע מִסּוֹף הָעוֹלָם וְעַד סוֹפוֹ, וְהַיְינוּ גּוּהָא.

When the Holy One, Blessed be He, remembers His children who are suffering among the nations of the world, He sheds two tears into the great sea. The sound of their reverberation is heard from one end of the earth to the other. And that is an earthquake.

G-d's spokesman is currently located in Israel and shabbos may have started but I'm counting on him letting us know tomorrow night (IYKYK)

perhaps this is why we make a Beracha on it even though it's destructive?

I didn’t feel a thing. I was driving the New York streets, an earthquake on any day.

The bracha of Oseh maaseh Bereishes is said on an earthquake. Shekocho ugvuroso is also an option. It needs to be said within 3 seconds of the end of the earthquake just like the bracha on thunder/lightning can only be said within 3 seconds. It can be said now w/o Hashems name.

In Monsey area felt building rattle for a good minute.

Does it make sense to have structure inspected for cracks? does reg. homeowner Insurance cover Earthquakes?

Aftershocks?

The only aftershock is that if there was G-d forbid a worse environmental disaster, it would take an hour for the agency to send out these alerts
