Just 34 minutes ago, a 2.8-magnitude earthquake struck near Canna, Morawa, Western Australia, Australia. The tremor was recorded early morning on Tuesday, September 20th, 2022, at 4:44 am local time, at a very shallow depth of 3.1 miles below the surface.
The event was filed by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the first seismological agency to report it.
