The past week has seen several notable earthquakes across the United States, with seismic activity primarily concentrated in the western states and Alaska. According to Earthquakelist.org, the most recent quake in the United States occurred on the morning of September third, measuring two point two in magnitude, located northwest of Oklahoma City at a depth of six kilometers. The previous day, a two point six magnitude quake was recorded in Alaska during the evening hours. As September began, the United States experienced a total of forty-four earthquakes, with the strongest reaching magnitude three point two near Fossil, Oregon, around twenty-four miles west of the city. While these recent events have been minor in scale, small quake swarms were also reported along the San Andreas Fault in California, particularly near the so-called creeping section, as described in recent updates from Volcano Discovery and seen in YouTube monitoring reports. Northern Nevada registered a cluster of earthquakes in the upper three magnitude range, with values such as three point seven and three point nine noted over the past day, suggesting an active but not alarming seismic period for the Great Basin region. Most events remain below the four magnitude threshold, consistent with the typical seismic background noise for much of the country.

Further north, Alaska, well-known for being the most seismically active state in the country, has remained relatively quiet since the stronger offshore magnitude seven point three earthquake recorded in July for the year two thousand twenty-five. That event, according to the Wikipedia list of major earthquakes in twenty twenty-five, had a substantial ground-shaking effect but did not result in notable casualties or damage due to its remote offshore location. Over the past seven days, Alaska’s activity has largely consisted of scattered minor tremors.

Globally, major earthquake activity during this period has been observed outside of the United States. Significant seismic events include a magnitude five point six earthquake in Morona Santiago, Ecuador, and a five point three event in the Philippine Sea south of Tokyo, as reported by Volcano Discovery’s worldwide earthquake summaries. The most devastating recent earthquake struck eastern Afghanistan on August thirty-first, with a magnitude of six point zero, causing more than fourteen hundred deaths and widespread infrastructure destruction, as reported by ReliefWeb.

No widespread damage or injuries have been linked to recent United States earthquakes, highlighting a period of frequent but mild seismic activity. Experts note that while daily minor tremors remain the norm, the variability in locations, including Oklahoma, the West Coast, and Alaska, underscores the diverse tectonic setting of the country. Seismologists continue monitoring for signs of increased seismic risk, as earthquake swarms and low-magnitude quakes can occasionally precede more significant events, but for now, most activity in the United States remains within expected patterns for early September twenty twenty-five.
