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 (*)II: Very weak shaking2683–684 km (424–425 mi)684 km (425 mi)III: Weak shaking1167–167 km (104–104 mi)167 km (104 mi)IV: Light shaking1686–686 km (426–426 mi)686 km (426 mi)V: Moderate shaking2167–168 km (103–105 mi)167 km (104 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (6 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!

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 794 km2 (307 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 49 km (30 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Aug 14, 2026 09:58 pm (Universal Time)7 minutes ago - felt6.910 km0 km - This quakeKabupaten Nagekeo, 42 km NW of Ende, IndonesiaMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 56 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 123 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 6 or higher: 0.07 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 14.1 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 1.85 quakes per yearMag. 4 or higher: 12.7 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 48 quakes per year (or 4 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 114 quakes per year (or 9.5 quakes per month)Mag. 1 or higher: 124 quakes per year (or 10.3 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 9 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 10 to 15 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
