Just 10 minutes ago, a 4.1-magnitude earthquake struck near Lisbon, Distrito de Lisboa, Portugal. The tremor was recorded around noon on Thursday, February 19th, 2026, at 12:14 pm local time, at a shallow depth of 14.60 km below the surface.
The event was filed by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the first seismological agency to report it.
A second report was later issued by the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, which listed it as a magnitude 3.6 earthquake. A third agency, Spain's Instituto Geográfico Nacional (IGN), reported the same quake at magnitude 3.6.
