Magnitude 4.3 earthquake strikes near Mulhouse, Haut-Rhin, Grand Est, France

4.3 quake 10 Sep 5:58 pm (GMT +2)

Just 5 hours ago, a 4.3-magnitude earthquake struck near Mulhouse, Haut-Rhin, Grand Est, France. The tremor was recorded in the afternoon on Saturday, September 10th, 2022, at 5:58 pm local time, at a very shallow depth of 9.2 km below the surface.
The event was filed by the United States Geological Survey, the first seismological agency to report it.
A second report was later issued by France's Réseau National de Surveillance Sismique (RéNaSS), which listed it as a magnitude 4.8 earthquake. Other agencies reporting the same quake include Austria's Central Research Institute for Meterology and Geodynamics in Vienna (ZAMG) at magnitude 4.7, the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 4.3, Italy's National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) at magnitude 4.6, the Swiss Seismological Service (SED) at magnitude 4.7, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) at magnitude 4.7, and the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) at magnitude 3.8.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.
In Brunstatt (pop. 5,800) located 3 km from the epicenter, Mulhouse (pop. 111,400) 6 km away, Illzach (pop. 15,500) 8 km away, and Wittenheim (pop. 15,700) 12 km away, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
Weak shaking might have been felt in St. Louis (pop. 20,900) located 21 km from the epicenter, Basel (pop. 164,500) 24 km away, Belfort (pop. 54,600) 37 km away, and Colmar (pop. 65,400) 42 km away.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Strasbourg (pop. 274,800) located 103 km from the epicenter.
