Moderate earthquake of magnitude 4.5 just reported 58 miles northeast of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Just 7 minutes ago, a 4.5-magnitude earthquake struck near Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The tremor was recorded in the morning on Saturday, May 9th, 2026, at 9:05 am local time, at a shallow depth of 6.2 miles below the surface.
The event was filed by the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), the first seismological agency to report it.
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 Smoky Lake (pop. 1,100) located 2 miles from the epicenter, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Lamont (pop. 1,800) located 29 miles from the epicenter.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Gibbons (pop. 2,800) located 42 miles from the epicenter, Fort Saskatchewan (pop. 15,000) 44 miles away, Vegreville (pop. 5,700) 45 miles away, St. Paul (pop. 5,700) 47 miles away, Sherwood Park (pop. 70,600) 56 miles away, Edmonton (pop. 1,010,900) 58 miles away, and St. Albert (pop. 57,700) 60 miles away.
