2026-08-13 18:42:22 UTC (4 days ago) · approx. 8:42 AM UTC-10 local
On August 13, 2026 at 18:42 UTC, a magnitude 2.0 shallow crustal earthquake struck 15 km W of Susitna North, Alaska, at a depth of 12.5 km and coordinates 62.1850°, -150.1350°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.0 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 15.1 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 14 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
