About this earthquake

On October 4, 2026 at 22:13 UTC, a magnitude M3.5 earthquake occurred near off the coast of Oregon. The hypocenter lay relatively close to the surface at around 10 km, increasing how strongly it was felt. Shaking of this size is frequently noticed but usually harmless.

The data is provided by USGS and cross-checked across seismological networks.

Why depth matters

Shallow quakes release energy near the surface — shaking is felt more strongly and damage potential is higher.
