On June 26, 2026 at 19:20 UTC, a magnitude 2.6 intermediate depth earthquake struck 27 km NW of Susitna, Alaska, at a depth of 72.7 km and coordinates 61.7210°, -150.8680°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.6 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 120 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 37 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
