On June 27, 2026 at 07:44 UTC, a magnitude 3.2 intermediate depth earthquake struck 45 km WSW of Anchor Point, Alaska, at a depth of 87.5 km and coordinates 59.6190°, -152.5720°.
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.
