Moderate magnitude 4.2 earthquake at 5 km depth16 Oct 23:59 UTC: First to report: RaspberryShake after 1 minute.16 Oct 23:59: Now using data updates from EMSC... [show all] ...17 Oct 00:00: Magnitude recalculated from 4.6 to 4.7.17 Oct 00:00: Magnitude recalculated from 4.7 to 4.2.17 Oct 00:01: Epicenter location corrected by 2.7 km (1.7 mi) towards SE.Update Sat, 17 Oct 2026, 00:12Moderate tremor of magnitude 4.2 just reported 19 km northeast of Argostoli, GreeceAn earthquake of magnitude 4.2 occurred early morning on Saturday, October 17th, 2026, at 2:57 am local time near Argostoli, Kefallonia, Ionian Islands, Greece, as reported by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC).According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a very shallow depth of 5. km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. 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.Our monitoring service identified a second report from the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) which listed the quake at magnitude 4.3. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the National Observatory of Athens (NOA) at magnitude 4.2, The Seismological Laboratory of the University of Athens (UOA) at magnitude 4.2, The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Geophysical Lab. (AUTH) at magnitude 4.2, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 4.3.Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.Moderate shaking probably occurred in Sami (pop. 1,300) located 3 km from the epicenter.Weak shaking might have been felt in Ithaki (pop. 1,800) located 11 km from the epicenter, Valsamata (pop. 1000) 13 km away, Faraklata (pop. 1,100) 15 km away, Argostoli (pop. 9,800) 19 km away, Lixouri (pop. 3,800) 22 km away, Agrinio (pop. 46,900) 75 km away, and Preveza (pop. 17,300) 77 km away.Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Amaliada (pop. 16,800) located 79 km from the epicenter.If you were or still are in this area during the quake help others with your feedback and report it here.Download the Volcanoes & Earthquakes app and get one of the fastest seismic alerts online: Android | iOSI didn't feel itI felt this quakeEarthquake detailsDate & timeOct 16, 2026 23:57:51 UTC - Local time at epicenterSaturday, Oct 17, 2026, at 02:57 am (GMT +3)StatusconfirmedMagnitude4.20Depth5 kmEpicenter latitude / longitude38.27°N / 20.67°EIonian Islands, GreeceSeismic antipode38.27°S / 159.33°WShaking intensityV Moderate shaking near epicenterFelt14 reportsPrimary data sourceEMSC (European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre)Nearest volcanoSousaki (215 km / 134 mi)Weather at epicenter at time of quakeClear Sky 12.9°C (55 F), humidity: 63%, wind: 5 m/s (10 kts) from NEEstimated seismic energy released1.3 x 1011 joules (35 megawatt hours, equivalent to 30.1 tons of TNT) | equivalent to ONE quake of magnitude 4.2 | about seismic energy16 minutes ago reported feltOct 16, 2026 23:57 GMT / Oct 17, 2026 02:57 am (GMT +3)Lat / Lng: 38.27 / 20.67: GreeceSource: EMSCOther sources: RaspberryShake: 4.3 / 10 km, AUTH: 4.2 / 5 km, 1 more...Detail info | Read user reports | You felt it? - Report it!';storedMarkers.push(['quake-23442738',38.27000,20.67000,'16 minutes ago: Mag. 4.2, Greece',html,'quakes-6-24.png',25,25,12,12,125]); function mkRep(id,notFelt){var nFelt=notFelt||false;var src="https://www.volcanoesandearthquakes.com/app/earthquake-report.php?quakeId="+id;if(nFelt==true){src+="¬Felt=true";}window.open(src,"","status=0,toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,scrollbars=1,height=400,width=350");} function locationHashChanged(e){-1!=e.oldURL.indexOf("#popupMap")&&closePopup()} window.onhashchange = locationHashChanged; function comment(e){var t=e.parentNode,a=(t.dataset.id,document.getElementById("commentForm"));"none"==a.style.display?(t.appendChild(a),a.style.display="block"):a.style.display="none"}function sendComment(e){var t=e.parentNode,a=t.parentNode.dataset.id,n=document.getElementById("commentContent"),p=n.value.trim();if(p){var o="id="+a+"&quakeId="+thisQuakeId;o+="&comment="+decodeURIComponent(p),mkRequest("//reports.volcanodiscovery.com/app/eqReportComment.php","post",o,function(e){e.responseText;alert("Thank you for submitting your comment!"),t.style.display="none",n.value=""})}}function flagReport(e){var t=e.parentNode.dataset.id;if(confirm("Report this as inappropriate?")){var a="id="+t+"&quakeId="+thisQuakeId+"&flagAsInappropriate=1";mkRequest("//reports.volcanodiscovery.com/app/eqReportComment.php","post",a,function(t){var a=t.responseText;alert(a),e.style.display="none"})}}function likeReport(e){var t="id="+e.parentNode.dataset.id+"&quakeId="+thisQuakeId+"&like=1";mkRequest("//reports.volcanodiscovery.com/app/eqReportComment.php","post",t,function(t){t.responseText;e.style.opacity=.5})}]]>[smaller] [bigger]Most recent quakes Top 20 past 24 hrs Quakes in CreteNearby placesThe closest larger town where the quake might have been felt is Agrinio, a town with 47,000 inhabitants in Greece, in 75 km (47 mi) distance northeast of the epicenter.

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 shaking33.3–59 km (2.1–36 mi)28 km (17 mi)IV: Light shaking71.5–76 km (0.9–48 mi)37 km (23 mi)V: Moderate shaking15.5–5.5 km (3.4–3.4 mi)5.5 km (3.4 mi)VI: Strong shaking17.1–7.1 km (4.4–4.4 mi)7.1 km (4.4 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (14 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 2 km2 (1 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 2 km (1 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Oct 17, 2026 02:57 am (GMT +3)16 minutes ago - felt4.25 km0 km - This quakeIonian Sea, 7.9 km E of Kefalonia Island, GreeceMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 26 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 4,800 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 6 or higher: 0.21 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 4.8 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 1.85 quakes per yearMag. 4 or higher: 32.3 quakes per year (or 2.7 quakes per month)Mag. 3 or higher: 264 quakes per year (or 22 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 1,600 quakes per year (or 4.5 quakes per day)Mag. 1 or higher: 4,600 quakes per year (or 12.5 quakes per day)The area where this quake occurred has a very high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 26 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 1 to 5 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquakeThe earthquake occurred 5 weeks after a magnitude 4.8 earthquake had hit on Saturday, Sep 12, 2026, at 08:51 pm local time (Europe/Athens GMT +3) in 39 km (24 mi) distance to the west:Mag. 4.8 earthquake Ionian Sea - 21 km west of Argostoli, Greece - Sep 12, 2026 -The largest quake near the epicenter of this quake during the 10 years before was an event of magnitude 6.8.
