Small tremor of magnitude 3.6 just reported 53 miles northwest of Elfin Cove, Alaska, United States

Just 6 minutes ago, a 3.6-magnitude earthquake struck near Elfin Cove, Hoonah-Angoon, Alaska, USA. The tremor was recorded around noon on Friday, November 28th, 2025, at 1:00 pm local time, at a very shallow depth of 3.1 miles below the surface.
The event was filed by the United States Geological Survey, the first seismological agency to report it.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from The Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) which listed the quake at magnitude 4.3. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 3.7.
According to preliminary calculations, we do not expect that the quake was felt by many people and did not cause any damage. In Elfin Cove (pop. 20, 53 miles away), the quake was probably not felt.
