2024-06-10 20:03:59 UTC (2024-06-10) · approx. 10:03 AM UTC-10 local
On June 10, 2024 at 20:03 UTC, a magnitude 3.2 shallow crustal earthquake struck 57 km WSW of Captain Cook, Hawaii, at a depth of 37.0 km and coordinates 19.2673°, -156.4103°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.2 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 829 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 91 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
