On July 7, 2026 at 21:33 UTC, a magnitude 2.5 shallow crustal earthquake struck 0 km NNW of Angwin, CA, at a depth of 6.1 km and coordinates 38.5800°, -122.4517°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.5 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 94.1 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 34 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
