An earthquake of magnitude 4.4 occurred only 5 minutes ago 47 miles southwest of Kodiak, Alaska, United States, the United States Geological Survey reported.The quake hit at a moderately shallow depth of 20 miles beneath the epicenter near Kodiak, Kodiak Island, Alaska, USA, late at night on Wednesday, April 22nd, 2026, at 11:12 pm local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.Our monitoring service identified a second report from The Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) which listed the quake at magnitude 4.4 as well. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre…

An earthquake of magnitude 5.5 occurred early evening on Thursday, April 23rd, 2026, at 7:31 pm local time near Nuku'alofa, Kolofo'ou, Tongatapu, Tonga, as reported by the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ).According to preliminary data, the quake was located at an intermediate to considerable depth of 216.50 km. The strength of the earthquake may have been tempered by its relative great depth below the surface, which makes it feel weaker in absolute terms. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt…
