M3.5 Earthquake 63 km ENE of Healy, Alaska — July 2, 2026
2026-07-02 07:45:42 UTC (2 hours ago) · approx. 9:45 PM UTC-10 local
On July 2, 2026 at 07:45 UTC, a magnitude 3.5 intermediate depth earthquake struck 63 km ENE of Healy, Alaska, at a depth of 110.0 km and coordinates 64.1090°, -147.8120°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.5 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 2.7 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 157 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
