An earthquake of magnitude 5.1 occurred only 13 minutes ago 8 km northwest of Charlotte Amalie, U.S. Virgin Islands, the United States Geological Survey reported.
The quake hit at a shallow depth of 28. km beneath the epicenter near Charlotte Amalie, Saint Thomas Island, U.S. Virgin Islands, early morning on Sunday, May 4th, 2025, at 2:58 am local time. 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 France’s Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS) which listed the quake at magnitude 5.2. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) at magnitude 5.5, the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 5.6, and The Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) at magnitude 5.1.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.
In Charlotte Amalie (pop. 20,000) located 8 km from the epicenter, and Cruz Bay (pop. 2,700) 22 km away, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
