The United States Geological Survey reported a magnitude 4.6 quake in the United States near Kodiak, Kodiak Island, Alaska, only 4 minutes ago. The earthquake hit in the morning on Thursday, April 24th, 2025, at 7:14 am local time at a shallow depth of 14 miles. 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.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Kodiak (pop. 6,300) located 42 miles from the epicenter.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Kodiak Station (pop. 1,300) located 49 miles from the epicenter, and Womens Bay (pop. 720) 54 miles away.
