On June 24, 2025 at 20:20 UTC, a magnitude 4.4 intermediate depth earthquake struck 61 km NNE of Petit Valley, Trinidad and Tobago, at a depth of 76.9 km and coordinates 11.2328°, -61.3736°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 4.4 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 60 metric tons of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 655 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
