Moderate magnitude 4.4 earthquake 16 km north of Târgovişte, Romania 4.4 quake 18 Sep 8:55 pm (GMT +3) An earthquake of magnitude 4.4 occurred in the evening on Sunday, September 18th, 2022, at 8:55 pm local time near Târgovişte, Municipiul Târgovişte, Dâmboviţa, Romania, as reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC).
According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a moderately shallow depth of 30 km. 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.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the Kandilli Oservatory and Earthquake Research Institute in Istanbul (KOERI-RETMC) which listed the quake at magnitude 4.1. A third agency, the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, reported the same quake at magnitude 4.4.
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 Pucioasa (pop. 15,000) located 2 km from the epicenter, Târgovişte (pop. 88,400) 16 km away, Moreni (pop. 20,600) 17 km away, Breaza (pop. 17,900) 21 km away, Campina (pop. 41,600) 22 km away, Băicoi (pop. 19,900) 31 km away, Găeşti (pop. 15,000) 41 km away, and Mioveni (pop. 29,100) 43 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Brasov (pop. 276,100) located 65 km from the epicenter, and Bucharest (pop. 1,877,200) 87 km away.
