On July 10, 2026 at 20:24 UTC, a magnitude 2.6 shallow crustal earthquake struck 3 km SE of Rose Lodge, Oregon, at a depth of 43.6 km and coordinates 44.9865°, -123.8488°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 2.6 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 124 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 38 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
