Magnitude 3.4 earthquake strikes near Hooper, Weber County, Utah, USA3.4 quake 16 Mar 8:47 am (GMT -6)
The United States Geological Survey reported a magnitude 3.4 quake in the United States near Hooper, Weber County, Utah, only 9 minutes ago. The earthquake hit in the morning on Wednesday, March 16th, 2022, at 8:47 am local time at a shallow depth of 8.9 miles. 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.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake which listed the quake at magnitude 3.4 as well. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 3.4.
According to preliminary calculations, we do not expect that the quake was felt by many people and did not cause any damage. In Hooper (pop. 8,200, 35 miles away), Syracuse (pop. 27,400, 39 miles away), Roy (pop. 38,000, 40 miles away), Clearfield (pop. 30,700, 40 miles away), Ogden (pop. 85,400, 43 miles away), and Layton (pop. 74,100, 44 miles away), the quake was probably not felt.
