2026-03-14 18:14:29 UTC (2026-03-14) · approx. 8:14 AM UTC-10 local
On March 14, 2026 at 18:14 UTC, a magnitude 3.2 intermediate depth earthquake struck 61 km WNW of Anchor Point, Alaska, at a depth of 108.8 km and coordinates 59.9630°, -152.8720°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.2 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 951 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 97 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
