Earthquakes in Colombia

ColombiaEMSC

Right now

The most recent data we hold from EMSC arrived 2 hours ago, and this point is not in it. We record detections, not passes: an absence is not proof that nothing is there.

5 other detections within 20 km in the last 24 hours, the nearest 6 km from here.

Reported by EMSC today.

It is the strongest of the 13 detections recorded within 20 km of this point since 27 August 2026. Another comparable one was recorded here earlier the same day. 8 more were recorded here in the fortnight before it.

What the source measured

EMSC reported: COLOMBIA

EMSC recorded magnitude 5.2 at a depth of 117 km.

The seismic region given by the source is COLOMBIA.

Urban PEI: 37,751 within a heuristic 70 km radius; not unique people.

Nearby, since 27 August 2026

How we know

2 recorded sources include EMSC; independence is not established by this count.

Our own score for this event is 23 out of 100.

This is our versioned heuristic index, not source severity or a calibrated probability. Urban PEI does not count unique people.

Computed under scoring rules v5. Rows carrying other versions were judged by different rules and are not directly comparable.

Physical priority index · v5. Heuristic priority, not calibrated probability, predictive accuracy or damage. The legacy data-support index combines assigned source support and field availability. Urban PEI is distance-weighted and does not count unique people; zero does not establish that nobody is present. Model cards.

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.

Series begins 8 March 2026. Comparisons refer to that period only. Collection gap: 14-26 August 2026.
