UPDATE FELT REPORT : ” I was awakened by the sound of my mirrored closet doors banging against each other. I recognized this as an earthquake from my experiences living in California. To double check if it was indeed an earthquake, I went to my dining room to check my chandelier and it was still swinging back and forth from the earthquake. I checked my clock and it was @ 2:37am”

The epicenter of this earthquake is about 20 km out of the Costa Rica coast.
As the epicenter is below the seabed, we do not expect any serious damage from this earthquake.
The above data are coming from Ovisicori Costa Rica. Both USGS and EMSC are reporting depths of + 60 km.
Costa Rica data have not been reviewed so far by a seismologist.

For your comfort, we will provide in most cases Google Satellite Map links to give you an idea where the earthquake struck, which terrain it happened and if villages or cities are located in the immediate vicinity. The reference for the time zone is UTC (Coordinated Universal Time, also called GMT)
The page is regularly updated to add new earthquakes.
green color = NOT dangerous for damage or injuries
orange color = MODERATE risk for damage or injuries
red color = CONSIDERABLE risk for damage or injuries
