Update: 4.6 magnitude earthquake hits Nairobi
A mild earthquake measuring 4.6 on the Richter scale struck Nairobi on Tuesday, according to Volcano Discovery, a website that provides information about all things lithosphere — the solid outer part of the Earth. The quake was felt in the Nairobi City County area, including Kitengela.
The quake began at 8:32 p.m. local time about 15 kilometers northwest of Magadi, Kajiado County, according to data from the website.
As USGS seismologists review the available data, they may revise the reported magnitude of the earthquake. Additional information gathered about the earthquake may prompt the VolcanoDiscovery team to update the magnitude map.
Minutes after the tremors were reported, residents felt a mild aftershock in Ruaka, Lower Kabete, and Kangemi, among other places within the capital.
Aftershocks are smaller earthquakes that follow a larger earthquake in the same general area. These occur 1-2 fault lengths apart and are sometimes just as powerful as the main earthquake itself. In fact, aftershocks can be so powerful that they are stronger than the main earthquake.
A typical series of aftershocks may be as short as a day, a few weeks, or as long as a few decades, and when they occur, they can continue to affect already damaged locations.
Volcano Discovery has recorded five earthquakes of magnitude 4 or greater in Kenya since 2022. In that time frame, only four earthquakes have been magnitude 4 or greater. Today's earthquake was the largest in the data available.
