According to the USGS, "ShakeMaps provide near-real-time maps of ground motion and shaking intensity following significant earthquakes. These maps are used by federal, state, and local organizations, both public and private, for post-earthquake response and recovery, public and scientific information, as well as for preparedness exercises and ...
Logo of the ANSS. The Advanced National Seismic System (ANSS) is a collaboration of the United States Geological Survey (USGS) and regional, state, and academic partners that collects and analyzes data on significant earthquakes to provide near real-time (generally within 10 to 30 minutes [1]) information to emergency responders and officials, the news media, and the public.

This is a list of earthquakes in 2025. Only earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above are included, unless they result in significant damage and/or casualties. All dates are listed according to UTC time. The maximum intensities are based on the Modified Mercalli intensity scale. Earthquake magnitudes are based on data from the USGS.
New Jersey Transit alerted riders of 20-minute delays due to bridge inspections following the earthquake. While earthquakes in the northeast U.S. are rare, Buffalo, New York, was struck by a 3.8 ...
USGS ShakeMap showing for the event. The earthquake was recorded by the International Seismological Centre with a moment magnitude of 7.8, and estimated the hypocenter's depth at 12.8 km (8.0 mi). [2] The earthquake occurred as a result of the oblique-strike-slip type motion at shallow crustal depths.
