2025-07-10 19:18:29 UTC (2025-07-10) · approx. 12:18 PM UTC-7 local
On July 10, 2025 at 19:18 UTC, a magnitude 3.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 9 km ESE of Wright, Wyoming, at a depth of 0.0 km and coordinates 43.7336°, -105.3820°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 674 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 83 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
