A magnitude 7.5 earthquake 1 hour 35 minutes ago was reported by the United States Geological Survey (USGS), considered the key international and national agency that monitors seismic activity in the US. The earthquake occurred at intermediate depth of 40 km (25 mi) beneath the epicenter on 19 Oct 12:54 pm (GMT -8) local time. Magnitude and other quake parameters can still change within the next hours as the agency continues to process the seismic data.
Our monitoring service at VolcanoDiscovery also identified a second report from Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency (BMKG) which listed the quake at magnitude 7.7. Other agencies reporting the same quake include INGV (magnitude 7.4), European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) (magnitude 7.5), GeoAu (magnitude 7.6), German Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam (GFZ) (magnitude 7.5).
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should have been felt by everybody in the area of the epicenter. In those areas, dangerous ground shaking occurred with the potential to inflict moderate to heavy damage to buildings and other infrastructure.
Towns and cities near the epicenter that are likely to be affected include Sand Point (pop. 1,100) in 92 km (57 mi) distance with strong ground shaking expected according to preliminary calculations, Perryville (pop. 100) in 143 km (89 mi) distance, strong ground shaking expected, King Cove (pop. 1000) in 175 km (109 mi) distance, strong ground shaking expected, Nelson Lagoon (pop. 100) in 178 km (110 mi) distance, strong ground shaking expected.
This story will be updated soon by VolcanoDiscovery. If you’re in the area, please send us your experience through our reporting mechanism. This will help us provide more first-hand updates to anyone around the globe who wants to know more about this quake.
A tsunami warning previously issued automatically has been lifted. There is no longer any significant threat of tsunamis from this quake.
Except for minor sea level fluctuations in the area near the epicenter, no significant wave action has been detected.
The quake follows the massive 7.8 quake, which hit the same area on 22 July earlier this year, but didn't cause significant damage, mainly due to the extremely low density of population.
Therefore, we don't expect any major damages from this quake either, although a report mentions that some buildings collapsed in Unga, a small settlement about two miles west of Sand Point.

A magnitude 5.0 earthquake was reported only 21 minutes ago ago by the USGS agency, considered one of the key international agencies that monitor seismic activity in the this region. The earthquake occurred at very shallow depth of 7.1 km (4.4 mi) beneath the epicenter. The magnitude could be revised within the next few minutes as the agency updates and refines its calcuations, or as other agencies issue their report.

Small spherical balls of volcanic ash that form from a wet nucleus falling through a volcanic ash cloud.
Bromo volcano photos: Bromo is one of Indonesia's most visited volcanoes. It is the most active vent inside the huge Tengger caldera and erupts every few years.
Photos from Kamchatka: Kamchatka in Russia's far east is one of world's remotest regions and has an almost unparalleled density of active volcanoes. Look at photos taken during our expeditions from this wonderful corner of the world!
Volcano Special Tours: We organize tours to particularly active volcanoes and during ongoing eruptions for extended observation time from various viewpoints. These trips, exclusively for very small groups, are often announced only at short notice and require fast travel and flexibility. Each trip is accompanied by a volcanologist from our team. Examples include: Kilauea (Hawai'i), Colima (Mexico), Krakatau and many others.
