On April 26, 2026 at 07:24 UTC, a magnitude 3.9 shallow crustal earthquake struck 7 km SE of Auli, Norway, at a depth of 10.0 km and coordinates 59.9947°, 11.4583°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.9 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 11 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 296 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
