Light-to-moderate shallow earthquake — widely felt locally, but widespread damage is unlikely.

If you felt shaking, move away from windows and tall furniture, check on neighbors, and watch for small aftershocks.

What this earthquake means

  • Shallow source (13 km). Energy reaches the surface efficiently — expect stronger local shaking and higher damage potential than a deeper quake of the same magnitude.
  • USGS PAGER is GREEN — large-scale casualties are unlikely, but localized landslides, secondary hazards and damage to vulnerable buildings still warrant caution.
  • Estimated peak shaking ~MMI 4.3 — light to moderate. Widely felt indoors; significant damage unlikely.

Interpretation derived from USGS PAGER & ShakeMap (MMI) guidance. Always defer to local civil-protection advisories.

What to do — pick your situation

Scenario-based actions

Do now

  • Drop, Cover, Hold On — get under a sturdy desk or table; protect head and neck.
  • Stay away from windows, mirrors, heavy shelves and unsecured furniture.
  • If in bed, stay there and cover your head with a pillow.

Avoid

  • Do NOT run outside during shaking — falling debris near exits is a top killer.
  • Do NOT use elevators.
  • Do NOT light matches or candles until you confirm no gas leak.

Once shaking stops

  • After shaking stops, check for gas smell, water leaks and structural cracks before re-entering rooms.
  • Wear shoes — broken glass is the most common post-quake injury.
  • Expect aftershocks for hours to days; keep a clear path to an exit.

⚠ Secondary hazards not in PAGER

USGS PAGER estimates shaking-driven fatalities and economic loss only. It does not model landslides, rockfalls, liquefaction, dam failures, fires-following-quake or tsunami inundation. In mountainous terrain (e.g. Afghanistan, Nepal, Andes) landslides often cause more casualties than the shaking itself — treat slope-failure risk as a first-order threat, not a footnote.

⚠ Aftershock & post-quake hazards

Smaller aftershocks are likely for hours. Stay alert; one can collapse a wall that the main shock cracked.

  • Stay out of damaged buildings. Cracks, leaning walls or jammed doors mean the structure may fail in the next shake.
  • Gas, power, water. Smell gas? Leave, then shut the meter from outside. Don't flip switches or use candles. Assume downed lines are live.
  • Listen for official alerts. Battery / hand-crank radio beats overloaded mobile networks in the first hours.

Secondary & cascading risks

Pattern-based. Cross-check with local civil-protection.
  • Aftershocks likely

    Expect smaller aftershocks for hours. Re-entering damaged buildings between shakes is the most common injury cause.

    USGS aftershock forecast
  • Night-time outage risk

    Aftershocks in the dark + likely power cuts = trip / fall injuries from broken glass and fallen furniture. Keep shoes and a torch at your bedside; avoid candles (gas leak risk).

  • Damaged buildings

    Don't re-enter visibly damaged structures, even briefly to grab belongings. Cracks in concrete, leaning walls, or jammed doors are signs of compromised integrity that aftershocks will exploit.

Felt where?

M5.3 is typically felt up to ~392 km from the epicenter, depending on depth and soil.

Shallow quake

At 13 km depth, shaking reaches the surface with more force. Shallow quakes cause the most damage.

Drop · Cover · Hold On

Drop to your hands and knees. Take cover under sturdy furniture. Hold on until shaking stops. Stay away from windows and exterior walls.

FAQ · Common questions

Long-tail answers

  • M5.3 is a moderate earthquake. Most people clearly feel the shaking and small items may fall, but it usually does not cause widespread structural damage. Severity also depends on depth (this event ~13 km), local building codes, population density and the time of day.
