M3.3 Earthquake 46 km WSW of Ivanof Bay, Alaska — October 19, 2026
2026-10-19 05:10:10 UTC (46 min ago) · approx. 6:10 PM UTC-11 local
On October 19, 2026 at 05:10 UTC, a magnitude 3.3 intermediate depth earthquake struck 46 km WSW of Ivanof Bay, Alaska, at a depth of 176.2 km and coordinates 55.8170°, -160.2180°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.3 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 1.3 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 114 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
