On November 10, 2026 at 16:31 UTC, a magnitude 2.7 shallow crustal earthquake struck 9 km WNW of Kalifornsky, Alaska, at a depth of 67.9 km and coordinates 60.4480°, -151.4600°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.7 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 169 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 44 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
