Moderate magnitude 4.3 quake hits 13 km northwest of Târgu Jiu, Romania in the morning 4.3 quake 19 Jun 8:26 am (GMT +3) The German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) reported a magnitude 4.3 quake in Romania near Târgu Jiu, Municipiul Târgu Jiu, Gorj, only 28 minutes ago. The earthquake hit in the morning on Monday, June 19th, 2023, at 8:26 am local time at a shallow depth of 10 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 Romania's National Institute for Earth Physics (NIEP) which listed the quake at magnitude 4.2. Other agencies reporting the same quake include Hungary's Seismological Observatory (Hungarian National Seismological Network) at magnitude 4.2, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 4.3.
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 Arcani (pop. 1,400) located 1 km from the epicenter, and Runcu (pop. 5,800) 4 km away, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Târgu Jiu (pop. 97,200) located 13 km from the epicenter, Lupeni (pop. 30,500) 33 km away, Motru (pop. 22,300) 33 km away, Vulcan (pop. 28,900) 36 km away, Petroşani (pop. 44,200) 42 km away, and Petrila (pop. 25,200) 47 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Drobeta-Turnu Severin (pop. 102,300) located 62 km from the epicenter.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available. If you’re in the area, please send us your experience through our reporting mechanism, either online or via our mobile app. This will help us provide more first-hand updates to anyone around the globe who wants to know more about this quake.
