The quake hit at an intermediate depth of 89 miles beneath the epicenter near Port Alsworth, Lake and Peninsula, Alaska, USA, around noon on Tuesday, December 21st, 2021, at 1:42 pm local time. 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. Our monitoring service identified a second report from the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) which listed the quake at magnitude 5.7 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 Port Alsworth (pop. 160) located 31 miles from the epicenter, Kalifornsky (pop. 7,900) 75 miles away, Homer (pop. 5,500) 76 miles away, Kenai (pop. 7,700) 78 miles away, Nikiski (pop. 4,500) 80 miles away, and Soldotna (pop. 4,500) 83 miles away. VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.
