2026-06-14 15:16:03 UTC (10 hours ago) · approx. 8:16 AM UTC-7 local
On June 14, 2026 at 15:16 UTC, a magnitude 2.6 shallow crustal earthquake struck 5 km WSW of Clear Creek, Utah, at a depth of 5.0 km and coordinates 39.6312°, -111.2183°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.6 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 120 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 37 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
