Magnitude 4.8 earthquake strikes near Mataram, ID.17.Lombok (undefined), West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia4.8 quake 14 Feb 8:39 am (GMT +8)
Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency reported a magnitude 4.8 quake in Indonesia near Mataram, ID.17.Lombok (undefined), West Nusa Tenggara, only 11 minutes ago. The earthquake hit in the morning on Sunday 14 February 2021 at 8:39 am local time at a shallow depth of 10 km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
A second report was later issued by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), which listed it as a magnitude 4.7 earthquake.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Labuan Lombok (pop. 10,000) located 59 km from the epicenter, Labuan Lombok (pop. 10,000) 59 km away, Labuan Lombok (pop. 10,000) 59 km away, Labuan Lombok (pop. 10,000) 59 km away, Labuan Lombok (pop. 10,000) 59 km away, Sumbawa Besar (pop. 52,700) 75 km away, and Praya (pop. 35,200) 78 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Mataram (pop. 318,700) located 99 km from the epicenter.
