So far, we have received 2 reports for this quake from  Russia. The quake was reported to have been felt in up to approx. 14.8 km (9 mi) distance.Most reports came from Vilyuchinsk, a town with 25,000 inhabitants in Kamchatka in 12.9 km (8 mi) distance northwest of the epicenter, Russia. Further below is a list of places where most people reported this quake.This section is being updated as new data comes in.User reports estimate the perceived ground shaking intensity according to the MMI (Modified Mercalli Intensity) scale.Contribute:Leave a comment if you find a particular report interesting or want to add to it.Flag as inappropriate.Mark as helpful or interesting.Send your own user report!Translate6.4 km NNW of epicenter [Map] / Moderate shaking (MMI V) / horizontal (sideways) swinging / 2-5 s : люстра шаталась, дверь тоже, ощущение 6 баллов, рванул к проём капитальной стены, был гул (reported through our app)   14.8 km NE of epicenter [Map] / Weak shaking (MMI III) (reported through our app)List of cities/places with most reportsPlaceDistance from epicenterAverage reported Shaking IntensityNr. of reportsVilyuchinsk, Kamchatka, Russia(Pop.: 25,204)12.9 km (8 mi)NW of epicenterV: Moderate shaking1Note: Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (2 in total) could be used for statistics.What is Intensity and the Mercalli Intensity Scale?The amount of shaking that occurs on the surface due to an earthquake is called the intensity. It is commonly measured on the so-called Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) ranging from 1 (not felt) to 10 (extreme shaking), and given in Roman numerals as I,II,...IX, X, and often displayed with color codes ranging from light blue to dark red.Earthquake intensity depends mainly on the magnitude and depth of the quake as well as the distance from the epicenter: The further away, the less shaking intensity occurs.Read more about the MMI scale!Number of reports by intensityShaking intensityNumber of reportsMin-Max distance from epicenter (*)Average distance (*)III: Weak shaking114.8–14.8 km (9.2–9.2 mi)14.8 km (9 mi)V: Moderate shaking16.4–6.4 km (3.9–3.9 mi)6.4 km (3.9 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (2 in total) could be used for geographic statistics.Get the Android appI didn't feel itI felt this quakeIf you were near the epicenter and felt it, please share your experience and submit a short "I felt it" report!
