Look up quakes! |
Iceland has a high level of seismic activity. Based on data from the past 14 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 44,000 quakes on average per year in Iceland. Iceland has had at least 14 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 5 to 10 years.
On average, Iceland has about 525 quakes of magnitude 3 or higher per year (Mag 4+: 75 quakes per year, Mag 5+: 6.1 quakes per year).
The last earthquake in Iceland occurred 12 minutes ago and had a magnitude of 0.2:
A light magnitude 0.2 earthquake hit 48 km (30 mi) away from Reykjavik, Capital, Iceland, in the morning of Wednesday, Jun 26, 2024 at 9.03 am local time (Atlantic/Reykjavik GMT +0). The quake had a very shallow depth of 1.2 km (0.7 mi) and was too small to be felt by people.
In the past 24 hours, Iceland was shaken by 1 quake of magnitude 4.3, 1 quake of magnitude , and 2 quakes between 2.0 and 3.0. There were also 46 quakes below magnitude 2.0 which people don't normally feel.
The strongest earthquake in Iceland in the past 24 hours had a magnitude of 4.3 and occurred 6 hours ago:
A moderate magnitude 4.3 earthquake hit 128 km (80 mi) away from Reykjavik, Capital, Iceland, in the early morning of Wednesday, Jun 26, 2024 at 3.03 am local time (Atlantic/Reykjavik GMT +0). The quake had a very shallow depth of 5.2 km (3.2 mi) and was not felt (or at least not reported so).
