An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 occurred only 10 minutes ago 25 miles east of Renton, Washington, United States, the United States Geological Survey reported.
The quake hit at a shallow depth of 8.6 miles beneath the epicenter near Renton, King County, Washington State, USA, after midnight on Saturday 10 April 2021 at 12:38 am local time. 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 European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) which listed the quake at magnitude 3.1 as well.
Towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Riverbend (pop. 2,100) located 3 miles from the epicenter, Issaquah (pop. 36,100) 17 miles away, and Maple Valley (pop. 25,700) 18 miles away.
