Just now on April 13th 2026 a magnitude 5.5 earthquake and aftershock swarm hit Nevada near Silver Springs outside of Reno. This is the second earthquake swarm to hit the continental USA in two days, the first striking off the coasts of Oregon and Washington along the divergent plate boundary of the Juan de Fuca and Pacific Plates. Are these two earthquake swarms connected? And don't forget about the earthquake swarming in and around Puerto Rico in the Carribean! Geophysicist Stefan Burns reports...

I’m in Sparks. The house shook then rocked like a boat for several seconds. It was a strong quake for sure.

Hi! I live in Sacramento. I felt the earthquake and my blinds were moving. I felt my couch slightly rumble. I then searched online and indeed it was a earthquake.

Rumor has it that it was moving. Lasted a good while. Rolling and jolting. Solid 5.7 for real!

I live here in Fallon and it was very strong here. I've experienced many quakes a 6.3 on Guam, a 5.7 in Long Beach in 1982. Both of those were strong, but this on today was lasted longer than any I have experienced. Lasted around a 90 seconds or longer. It was a rocker and a roller and thought the Stillwater Fault, which has a history of large quakes. 1954 was the last series and they were 7.1+ magnitude. Its extremely rural so damage is minimal. In Dixie Valley the valley floor dropped 20 ft in places along a 100 mile fracture. They drop and fracture can be seen along the base of the East side of Stillwater range for 30 miles.
