Small magnitude 3.6 earthquake 8 km northeast of Blida, Algeria

An earthquake of magnitude 3.6 occurred only 27 minutes ago 8 km northeast of Blida, Algeria, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) reported.
The quake hit at a very shallow depth of 1. km beneath the epicenter near Blida, Wilaya de Blida, Algeria, early evening on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2026, at 6:06 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.
A second report was later issued by Spain's Instituto Geográfico Nacional (IGN), which listed it as a magnitude 3.6 earthquake as well.
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 Souma (pop. 40,700) located 3 km from the epicenter, and Beni Mered (pop. 92,700) 6 km away, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Blida (pop. 331,800) located 8 km from the epicenter, Bouinan (pop. 30,300) 8 km away, Boufarik (pop. 57,200) 9 km away, Bou Arfa (pop. 44,100) 9 km away, Beni Tamou (pop. 33,800) 10 km away, and Bougara (pop. 38,400) 16 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Medea (pop. 145,400) located 29 km from the epicenter, and Algiers (pop. 2,364,200) 31 km away.

Date & time: Mar 3, 2026 06:06 pm (GMT +1) local time (3 Mar 2026 17:06 GMT)

Magnitude 3.9 earthquake strikes near Pahrump, Nye County, Nevada, USA

An earthquake of magnitude 3.9 occurred in the morning on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2026, at 9:23 am local time near Pahrump, Nye County, Nevada, USA, as reported by the United States Geological Survey.
According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a very shallow depth of 6 miles. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. 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.
A second report was later issued by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), which listed it as a magnitude 2.2 earthquake.
Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Beatty (pop. 1000) located 32 miles from the epicenter, and Pahrump (pop. 36,400) 35 miles away.

Small magnitude 3.5 quake hits 10 km south of Glogow, Poland in the afternoon

A very shallow magnitude 3.5 earthquake was reported in the afternoon near Glogow, Głogów County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Poland.
According to the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), the quake hit on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2026, at 5:53 pm local time at a very shallow depth of 5. km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. 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.
A second report was later issued by the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), which listed it as a magnitude 3.4 earthquake.
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 Jerzmanowa (pop. 600) located 4 km from the epicenter, Polkowice (pop. 21,600) 7 km away, and Glogow (pop. 65,400) 10 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Lubin (pop. 77,500) located 20 km from the epicenter, Nowa Sol (pop. 40,400) 37 km away, Legnica (pop. 106,000) 40 km away, Leszno (pop. 63,600) 45 km away, and Boleslawiec (pop. 40,700) 50 km away. In Wroclaw (pop. 634,900, 83 km away), the quake was probably not felt.

Magnitude 2.8 earthquake strikes near Katanning, Western Australia, Australia

A very shallow magnitude 2.8 earthquake was reported late at night near Katanning, Western Australia, Australia.
According to Geoscience Australia (GeoAu), the quake hit on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2026, at 11:56 pm local time at a very shallow depth of 1.7 miles. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. 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.
A second report was later issued by the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, which listed it as a magnitude 2.8 earthquake as well. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 2.8.
Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Pallinup (pop. 78) located 7 miles from the epicenter, Gnowangerup (pop. 590) 10 miles away, and Jackitup (pop. 60) 11 miles away. In Broomehill (pop. 380, 17 miles away), Tambellup (pop. 370, 23 miles away), and Katanning (pop. 3,700, 23 miles away), the quake was probably not felt.

Moderate yet deep magnitude 5.3 earthquake 16 km north of Agrihan Village, Northern Mariana Islands

A magnitude 5.3 earthquake near Agrihan Village, Agrihan Island, Northern Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, was reported 34 minutes ago by the United States Geological Survey, considered one of the key international agencies that monitor seismic activity worldwide. The earthquake occurred at an intermediate to considerable depth of 191.32 km beneath the epicenter after midnight on Wednesday, March 4th, 2026, at 12:38 am local time. Magnitude and other quake parameters can still change in the coming hours as the agency continues to process seismic data.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) which listed the quake at magnitude 5.3 as well. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 5.1, France's Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS) at magnitude 5.0, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 5.1.
Generally quakes of this magnitude are recorded by more than one agency and the results can vary, with subsequent reports that come in after the first one often showing more accuracy.
Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Agrihan Village (pop. 20) located 16 km from the epicenter, and Pagan Village (pop. 50) 84 km away.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.
