The earthquake occurred at a very shallow depth of 3. km beneath the epicenter early morning on Saturday, March 14th, 2026, at 2:14 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. 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 Assen (pop. 68,800) located 4 km from the epicenter. In Stadskanaal (pop. 20,000, 25 km away), Hoogezand (pop. 21,500, 26 km away), Leek (pop. 19,700, 26 km away), Veendam (pop. 28,200, 26 km away), Hoogeveen (pop. 38,800, 27 km away), Groningen (pop. 244,800, 29 km away), Emmen (pop. 57,000, 30 km away), and Drachten (pop. 45,200, 36 km away), the quake was probably not felt. Earthquake data: Date & time: Mar 14, 2026 02:14 am (GMT +1) local time (14 Mar 2026 01:14 GMT) Magnitude: 2.9 Depth: 3.00 km Epicenter latitude / longitude: 52.96°N / 6.57°E (Provincie Drenthe, Netherlands) Primary data source: EMSC https://www.volcanodiscovery.com/earthquake/news/297577/Small-tremor-of-magnitude-29-just-reported-4-km-south-of-Assen-Netherlands.html
