Recent earthquakes reported worldwide in the last 24 hours by the USGS feed, with magnitude filters, depth details, felt reports, tsunami flags, and direct links to USGS event reports. Coverage varies by region and magnitude; this is not a complete list of every earthquake.

Explore recent activity on the world map, filter by magnitude or time, and optionally find the earthquakes nearest you. Every event links to its detailed USGS report.
Ages and time windows update while this page is open. Refresh to load newer events; the feed may be cached for up to five minutes.

202 earthquakes match your filters · 38 shown on the map (M2.5 and above)
Use M2.5+, M4.5+, and M6+ filters to separate everyday small earthquakes from stronger global events that deserve closer attention.
Shallow earthquakes can feel stronger near the epicenter. Felt reports and tsunami flags help identify events that may matter beyond magnitude alone.
Every event links to the USGS report for maps, coordinates, updates, and scientific details as the earthquake record changes.
Magnitude scales, depth, aftershock sequences, and the revisions USGS makes after the first automatic report.
Guide
How moment magnitude replaced the Richter scale, and why each whole number means about 32 times more energy.
Guide
Why a shallow quake shakes far harder than a deeper one of the same magnitude, and when depth stops mattering.
Guide
What the labels really mean, how long sequences last, and why aftershocks get rarer over time but not smaller.
Guide
Why USGS revises magnitude, depth, and location after the first automatic report, and which number to trust.

Glossary
The modern standard magnitude scale (Mw), based on seismic moment: the rupture area multiplied by the average slip and the rigidity of the rock.
Glossary
The point on Earth's surface directly above where a fault rupture begins.
Glossary
A smaller earthquake following a mainshock in the same area, caused by the crust adjusting to redistributed stress.
WeatherAI can send push notifications when earthquakes are reported near you or anywhere in the world. Set custom magnitude thresholds, monitor saved places, and keep earthquake awareness alongside your weather alerts. These are informational notifications about events that have already occurred, not earthquake early warning or tsunami warnings.
This tracker is for situational awareness. For protective action, follow local emergency management, official tsunami warnings, and instructions from civil authorities.
Multi-hazard planning for earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, and severe weather.
Monitor recent seismic activity from your iPhone Home Screen or Lock Screen.
Watch volcano status and related hazards alongside nearby seismic activity.
Keep tornado, thunderstorm, flood, and storm alerts in the same emergency workflow.
This page loads the USGS recent earthquake feed when you open or refresh it, using a cache lasting up to five minutes. Event ages and time filters advance while the page is open; use Refresh feed to request newer events. Individual event times show when earthquakes occurred. Early solutions are preliminary, and USGS revises magnitude, depth, and location as more data arrives.
Magnitude estimates the size of an earthquake. Higher values indicate much stronger shaking potential. WeatherAI lets you filter the live list to focus on minor, moderate, strong, or major events.
Yes. WeatherAI can send earthquake notifications on iPhone for nearby and global earthquakes, with configurable magnitude thresholds. These report earthquakes that have already been detected, so they are monitoring rather than early warning: they cannot reach you before shaking arrives, and they are not tsunami warnings. Delivery depends on your permissions, thresholds, and connectivity.
