M3.1 Earthquake 13 km NE of Milford, Utah — November 7, 2026
2026-11-07 18:10:55 UTC (14 min ago) · approx. 10:10 AM UTC-8 local
On November 7, 2026 at 18:10 UTC, a magnitude 3.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 13 km NE of Milford, Utah, at a depth of -1.1 km and coordinates 38.4755°, -112.8948°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 801 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 90 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
