Average mag. 5.9 Earthquake – East China Sea, 155 km north of Miyako Island, Miyakujima-shi, Okinawa, Japan, Saturday, March 27, 2021, 7:02 a.m. (GMT +9)

Mar 26 22:08 UTC: First to report: GFZ after 6 minutes. 26 Mar 22:10: Volume recalculated from 5.7 to 6.0. The depth of the hypocenter was recalculated from 143.0 to 141.0 km (89 to 88 mi). Correction of the epicenter location of 14 km (8.7 mi) northwest towards 26 March 22:17: magnitude recalculated from 6.0 to 5.9. Depth of the blast center was recalculated from 141.0 to 142.0 km (88 to 88 miles). The epicenter location was corrected at 9.1 km (5.7 mi) in a WNW direction.

A 6.0 magnitude earthquake near Harara, Miyakojima-shi, Okinawa, Japan, was reported just 10 minutes ago by the German Research Center for Geosciences (GFZ), one of the main international agencies monitoring seismic activity around the world. The earthquake occurred at a depth of 141 kilometers below the epicenter on the morning of Saturday, March 27, 2021 at 7:02 a.m. local time. The exact size, epicenter, and depth of the earthquake can be reviewed within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review the data and improve their calculations, or when other agencies release their reports. The Seismological Center (EMSC) which recorded the earthquake with a magnitude of 5.9, and based on the preliminary seismic data, the earthquake should not have caused any major damage, but it was probably felt by many people as a slight shaking in the epicenter area. Perhaps a weak tremor was felt in Hirara (34400 region) located 146 km from the epicenter, and VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update the size and depth if these change and follow up if other important news about the earthquake becomes available.

The rupture zone is likely to be about 15 km (10 mi) long, and aftershocks typically occur during the days and weeks following an earthquake at or near the same fault, at distances of approximately. Double the length of the laceration area. The broad linear arrangement of aftershock centers often includes the main shock rupture zone (refer to the map below for verification). Aftershocks recorded, the most recent first (0 earthquakes so far, updated frequently): So far, no aftershocks have been recorded.
