Wait 5 sec.

A magnitude-3.4 earthquake occurred early Saturday evening, November 14, 2026, at 6:40 p.m. local time near Ogden, Weber County, Utah, USA, according to the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC).According to preliminary data, the quake occurred at a very shallow depth of 3.2 miles. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones because they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake may be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review the data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their reports.Our monitoring service identified a second report from the United States Geological Survey, which also listed the quake at magnitude 3.4.Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage but was probably felt by many people as light vibrations in the area of the epicenter. Weak shaking might have been felt in Enterprise (pop. 610), located 7 miles from the epicenter; South Ogden (pop. 17,000), 16 miles away; and Ogden (pop. 85,400), 16 miles away.Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Kaysville (pop. 30,500), located 18 miles from the epicenter; Layton (pop. 74,100), 18 miles away; Farmington (pop. 22,600), 18 miles away; Roy (pop. 38,000), 19 miles away; Clearfield (pop. 30,700), 20 miles away; and Bountiful (pop. 43,800), 24 miles away.
