Snoqualmie, WA – A magnitude 2.5 earthquake struck 10 kilometers northeast of Snoqualmie on Sunday. The quake, recorded at a depth of 12.8 kilometers, occurred at 12:27 p.m. UTC.
According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), the earthquake was centered near Snoqualmie but was light enough that most residents may not have felt it. However, the USGS urges residents to report their experiences, if any, through its “Did You Feel It?” platform. The program helps scientists collect valuable data from the public to improve earthquake response efforts.
The community Internet intensity map shows little widespread impact, with only one response logged as of Monday morning. Citizen reports are crucial for researchers to understand how different areas experience the same seismic event. Even if the quake was not strongly felt, it can still provide key information on local ground conditions.
If you felt the earthquake or noticed any shaking, you can contribute by submitting a report to help scientists refine their understanding of the tremor’s impact.
