Didn’t you feel it? Magnitude 2.5 earthquake strikes Magna

Magna, Utah (ABC4) – A 2.5-magnitude earthquake struck west of Salt Lake County just before noon on Wednesday, June 21.

Reports of residents in the area feeling the earthquake are still coming, but as of 1 p.m., more than 65 people said they felt the quake.

According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the epicenter was about two miles northeast of Magna and four miles northwest of West Valley City, and was recorded at a depth of 10.5 kilometers — or about 6.5 miles. The epicenter was about a mile south of the epicenter of the magnitude 5.7 earthquake that rocked the Salt Lake Valley in 2020.

The University of Utah Seismological Station (UUSS) said Wednesday’s quake is still an aftershock of the 2020 quake. Since 2020, there have been 2,800 aftershocks of the 5.7 quake.

“Although the aftershocks have slowed considerably, the earthquake rate near Magna is still above the level of background seismicity, indicating that the aftershock sequence is still continuing,” UUSS said. “It is normal for aftershocks to continue for years after an earthquake of this magnitude.”

It is reported that Wednesday’s 2.5 earthquake is one of three earthquakes that rocked the Magna region in the past 24 hours.

Low-magnitude earthquakes like the one in Magna on Wednesday are usually not felt, although they can be felt near the epicenter.

According to Michigan Tech University, 2.5 is on the border of not normally felt and felt often with the potential for minor damage. These low-magnitude earthquakes are recorded by the millions each year.

It’s also very unlikely that a 2.5 earthquake would likely cause any major damage, especially on the scale of the 2020 earthquake that knocked out power and was felt across the valley.
