Small, very shallow earthquake — usually felt only locally, with a low probability of widespread damage.
If you felt shaking near the epicenter, move away from glass, check for fallen objects, and stay alert for possible aftershocks.
What this earthquake means
- Shallow source (5 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.
Interpretation derived from USGS PAGER & ShakeMap (MMI) guidance. Always defer to local civil-protection advisories.

Widespread damage is unlikely for an event of this size. We've hidden large-scale rescue tools (shelters, missing persons, embassy dial) because they aren't needed here — they appear automatically on M6+ or PAGER orange / red events.

⚠ Aftershock & post-quake hazards
Aftershocks are usually minor at this magnitude, but expect a few small jolts in the next hours.
- 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.

Felt where?
M2.9 is typically felt up to ~104 km from the epicenter, depending on depth and soil.
Shallow quake
At 5 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
M2.9 is a minor earthquake. People close to the epicenter feel it; far away it is usually unnoticed and damage is rare. Severity also depends on depth (this event ~5 km), local building codes, population density and the time of day.
