On November 11, 2026 at 07:38 UTC, a magnitude 3.7 shallow crustal earthquake struck 117 km SE of Port Graham, Alaska, at a depth of 42.0 km and coordinates 58.5280°, -150.5460°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.7 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 5.4 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 215 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
