The quake hit at a shallow depth of 10 km beneath the epicenter near Pokhara, Kaski, Gandaki Pradesh, Nepal, early morning on Wednesday 19 May 2021 at 4:57 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 France's Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS), which listed it as a magnitude 5.3 earthquake. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 5.3. Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc. In Pokhara (pop. 200,000) located 38 km from the epicenter, the quake should have been felt as light shaking. Weak shaking might have been felt in Bhattarai Danda (pop. 5,500) located 66 km from the epicenter, Wāliṅ (pop. 21,900) 71 km away, Bāglung (pop. 23,300) 74 km away, Bharatpur (pop. 107,200) 77 km away, Tānsen (pop. 23,700) 95 km away, Butwāl (pop. 91,700) 114 km away, Kathmandu (pop. 1,442,300) 121 km away, Patan (pop. 183,300) 122 km away, and Hetauda (pop. 84,800) 124 km away.
