2025-09-22 19:04:33 UTC (2025-09-22) · approx. 2:04 PM UTC-5 local
On September 22, 2025 at 19:04 UTC, a magnitude 2.9 shallow crustal earthquake struck 22 km NW of Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel, Canada, at a depth of 10.0 km and coordinates 46.1525°, -75.2901°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.9 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 338 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 60 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
