Attached is an updated map showing the shaking felt (and reported) by this earthquake.Update Fri, 18 Sep 2026, 16:57Magnitude 4.9 earthquake strikes near Santiago, Provincia de Santiago, Santiago Metropolitan, ChileAn earthquake of magnitude 4.9 occurred around noon on Friday, September 18th, 2026, at 1:52 pm local time near Santiago, Provincia de Santiago, Santiago Metropolitan, Chile, as reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC).According to preliminary data, the quake was located at an intermediate depth of 98. km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.Weak shaking might have been felt in Penalolen (pop. 241,600) located 19 km from the epicenter, Santiago (pop. 4,837,300) 26 km away, Renca (pop. 147,200) 29 km away, Quilicura (pop. 210,400) 29 km away, Colina (pop. 146,200) 29 km away, Lo Prado (pop. 104,300) 32 km away, Puente Alto (pop. 568,100) 34 km away, La Pintana (pop. 201,200) 34 km away, Maipu (pop. 503,600) 39 km away, and San Bernardo (pop. 249,900) 39 km away.VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.

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 (*)I: Not felt234–287 km (21–178 mi)160 km (99 mi)II: Very weak shaking326–113 km (16.1–70 mi)80 km (50 mi)III: Weak shaking2212.6–111 km (7.8–69 mi)41 km (26 mi)IV: Light shaking368.3–114 km (5.2–71 mi)35 km (22 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (70 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 6 km2 (2 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 4 km (3 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Sep 18, 2026 01:52 pm (Santiago)16 minutes ago - felt4.898 km0 km - This quake26 km NE of Santiago, Santiago, Santiago Metropolitan, ChileMain 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 177 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 6 or higher: 0.05 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 21.3 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 1.07 quakes per yearMag. 4 or higher: 13.1 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 80 quakes per year (or 6.6 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 177 quakes per year (or 14.8 quakes per month)Mag. 1 or higher: 213 quakes per year (or 17.7 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity.
