Significant magnitude 5.1 quake hits 86 km northwest of Kathmandu, Nepal in the evening

An earthquake of magnitude 5.1 occurred in the evening on Wednesday 19 May 2021 at 9:54 pm local time near Kathmandu, Province 3, Nepal, as reported by India's National Center for Seismology (NCS).
According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a shallow depth of 10 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.
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 Barhaghare (pop. 35) located 46 km from the epicenter, Bharatpur (pop. 107,200) 75 km away, Pokhara (pop. 200,000) 77 km away, Kirtipur (pop. 44,600) 86 km away, Kathmandu (pop. 1,442,300) 86 km away, Patan (pop. 183,300) 88 km away, Madhyapur Thimi (pop. 83,000) 92 km away, Hetauda (pop. 84,800) 100 km away, and Wāliṅ (pop. 21,900) 103 km away.
