On June 28, 2026 at 02:06 UTC, a magnitude 4.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 162 km NNW of The Valley, Anguilla, at a depth of 42.1 km and coordinates 19.6378°, -63.4497°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 21 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 406 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
