An intermediate magnitude 3.7 earthquake was reported early evening near Anchor Point, Kenai Peninsula, Alaska, USA.
According to the United States Geological Survey, the quake hit on Tuesday, April 29th, 2025, at 6:14 pm local time at an intermediate depth of 68 miles. The strength of the earthquake may have been tempered by its relative great depth below the surface, which makes it feel weaker in absolute terms. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from The Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) which listed the quake at magnitude 3.7 as well. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 3.7.
According to preliminary calculations, we do not expect that the quake was felt by many people and did not cause any damage. In Ninilchik (pop. 880, 35 miles away), Anchor Point (pop. 1,900, 42 miles away), Cohoe (pop. 1,400, 45 miles away), Kalifornsky (pop. 7,900, 46 miles away), Kenai (pop. 7,700, 50 miles away), Nikiski (pop. 4,500, 54 miles away), Soldotna (pop. 4,500, 55 miles away), and Homer (pop. 5,500, 56 miles away), the quake was
