An earthquake of magnitude 3.6 occurred only 12 minutes ago 48 miles southeast of Sand Point, Alaska, United States, the United States Geological Survey reported.
The quake hit at a shallow depth of 6.2 miles beneath the epicenter near Sand Point, Aleutians East, Alaska, USA, early afternoon on Tuesday, October 15th, 2024, at 3:48 pm 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.
