Right now

The most recent data we hold from EMSC arrived 3 hours ago, and this point is not in it. We record detections, not passes: an absence is not proof that nothing is there.

One other detection within 20 km in the last 24 hours, 14 km from here.

Reported by EMSC today.

It is one of only 3 we have recorded within 20 km of this point since 20 March 2026. Another comparable one was recorded here earlier the same day. One more was recorded here in the fortnight before it.

Safety Information

If you feel shaking: Drop, Cover, and Hold On. Move away from windows, heavy objects, and exterior walls. After shaking stops, check for injuries and structural damage. Be prepared for aftershocks, which can occur minutes to months after the mainshock. Follow instructions from local emergency management authorities.
