2026-11-10 03:10:13 UTC (2 hours ago) · approx. 6:10 PM UTC-9 local
On November 10, 2026 at 03:10 UTC, a magnitude 3.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 265 km SSW of Inuvik, Canada, at a depth of 16.8 km and coordinates 66.2200°, -136.4460°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 674 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 83 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
