2025-03-28 20:32:28 UTC (2025-03-28) · approx. 12:32 PM UTC-8 local
On March 28, 2025 at 20:32 UTC, a magnitude 2.5 shallow crustal earthquake struck 16 km NNE of Amanda Park, Washington, at a depth of -0.5 km and coordinates 47.5895°, -123.8050°.
Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.5 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 84.8 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 32 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
