What does “today” mean?
This page uses a rolling 24-hour window rather than one fixed calendar day, so it remains useful across timezones. USGS may revise an earthquake's location, depth or magnitude as more observations become available.
For a broader view, explore earthquakes during the past seven days, the worldwide activity summary, or earthquakes by region.
Frequently asked questions
What does “today” mean on this page?
A rolling 24-hour window, not a calendar day, so the page is useful in every time zone. Times are shown in your own zone, labelled with its UTC offset, and can be switched to UTC.
How many earthquakes happen in a day?
Several hundred are detected worldwide every day, but the large majority are too small to be felt. The list below is the complete public USGS feed for the last 24 hours.
Why did a magnitude change after I looked?
Solutions are preliminary. Magnitude, depth and location are revised as more station data arrives — a first automatic estimate is often adjusted by a few tenths.
Where can I see more than 24 hours?
The past 7 days page covers a week, and each region page covers 30 days for one area.
