On June 25, 2026 at 12:52 UTC, a magnitude 2.6 shallow crustal earthquake struck 12 km E of Millville, Utah, at a depth of 9.1 km and coordinates 41.6620°, -111.6730°. This earthquake was detected by 38 seismic stations with excellent location accuracy and was assigned a USGS significance rating of 109, placing it among routine seismic activity.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.6 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 116 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.

The epicenter is located in Utah, a region characterized by the Wasatch Fault zone at the eastern margin of the Basin and Range Province, where east-west extension produces normal-fault earthquakes. The nearest mapped fault system is the Wasatch Fault. View all earthquakes in Utah.

Were there aftershocks?

Aftershock activity is monitored continuously by the USGS. Aftershock sequences from magnitude 2.6 earthquakes can continue for several days and gradually diminish over time.

Has Utah had earthquakes this big before?

The largest recorded earthquake in Utah was the M6.6 Magna earthquake of March 18, 2020. Today's magnitude 2.6 event is significantly smaller than that historical record.

What should I do after an earthquake?

If you were in the affected area: check yourself and others for injuries, inspect your home for damage, and be prepared for aftershocks. For detailed guidance, see our earthquake safety guide and emergency planning resources.
