2026-06-25 23:10:25 UTC (5 hours ago) · approx. 3:10 PM UTC-8 local
On June 25, 2026 at 23:10 UTC, a magnitude 3.5 shallow crustal earthquake struck 18 km NNW of Indian Springs, Nevada, at a depth of 5.6 km and coordinates 36.7179°, -115.7567°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.5 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 2.3 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 145 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
