Moderate earthquake of magnitude 4.8 just reported 67 miles southwest of Nikolski, Alaska, United States

An earthquake of magnitude 4.8 occurred only 24 minutes ago 67 miles southwest of Nikolski, Alaska, United States, the United States Geological Survey reported.
The quake hit at a shallow depth of 6.2 miles beneath the epicenter near Nikolski, Aleutians West, Alaska, USA, early morning on Thursday, February 19th, 2026, at 4:38 am 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.
A second report was later issued by The Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS), which listed it as a magnitude 4.8 earthquake as well. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) at magnitude 4.8, the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 4.8, France's Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS) at magnitude 5.0, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 4.9.
Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Nikolski (pop. 18) located 67 miles from the epicenter.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.

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 citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake which listed the quake at magnitude 4.7 as well.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Union (pop. 2,400) located 39 km from the epicenter, Pilar (pop. 2,400) 42 km away, Dapa (pop. 8,800) 46 km away, Socorro (pop. 9,700) 57 km away, Cantilan (pop. 9,400) 72 km away, and Tandag (pop. 29,000) 81 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Surigao (pop. 87,800) located 107 km from the epicenter.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.

Moderate magnitude 4.6 earthquake 42 km southeast of Miangas, Indonesia

A magnitude 4.6 earthquake near Miangas, Sulawesi Utara, Indonesia, was reported only 13 minutes ago by Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency, considered the main national agency that monitors seismic activity in Indonesia. The earthquake occurred at an intermediate depth of 85. km beneath the epicenter in the evening on Thursday, February 19th, 2026, at 9:44 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 Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) which listed the quake at magnitude 3.9. A third agency, the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, reported the same quake at magnitude 4.6.
Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Miangas (pop. 820) located 42 km from the epicenter.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.

Small 3.6 quake hits near McCarthy, Copper River, Alaska, USA

The United States Geological Survey reported a magnitude 3.6 quake in the United States near McCarthy, Copper River, Alaska, only 2 minutes ago. The earthquake hit early morning on Thursday, February 19th, 2026, at 4:49 am local time at a very shallow depth of 0.2 miles. 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.
A second report was later issued by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), which listed it as a magnitude 3.6 earthquake as well.
According to preliminary calculations, we do not expect that the quake was felt by many people and did not cause any damage. In McCarthy (pop. 28, 50 miles away), the quake was probably not felt.

Magnitude 4.1 earthquake strikes near Lisbon, Distrito de Lisboa, Portugal

An earthquake of magnitude 4.1 occurred around noon on Thursday, February 19th, 2026, at 12:16 pm local time near Lisbon, Distrito de Lisboa, Portugal, as reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC).
According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a very shallow depth of 2. km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. 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.
A second report was later issued by France's Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS), which listed it as a magnitude 4.5 earthquake. Other agencies reporting the same quake include Spain's Instituto Geográfico Nacional (IGN) at magnitude 4.3, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 4.3.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should have been widely felt by almost everyone in the area of the epicenter. It might have caused light to moderate damage.
Moderate shaking probably occurred in Meca (pop. 1,700) located 2 km from the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Azambuja (pop. 21,400) located 12 km from the epicenter, Vila Franca de Xira (pop. 18,400) 14 km away, Torres Vedras (pop. 24,400) 21 km away, Loures (pop. 66,200) 31 km away, and Odivelas (pop. 54,600) 35 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Amadora (pop. 178,900) located 41 km from the epicenter, Lisbon (pop. 517,800) 41 km away, Queluz (pop. 103,400) 42 km away, and Cacem (pop. 94,000) 43 km away.
