● M 5.0 - 49 km NNE of Beauséjour, Guadeloupe
2023-02-02 13:13:23 (UTC)
16.727°N 60.935°W. 23.7 km depth
USGS earthquake alert
Guadeloupe was shaken 49 km (31 mi) NNE of Beauséjour (pop: 1,720) Guadeloupe, by an earthquake of magnitude 5.0 The quake hit at a shallow depth of 23.7 km beneath the epicenter near Abymes, Guadeloupe, in the morning on Thursday, February 2nd, 2023, at 9:13 am local time. Soufrière de Guadeloupe is the nearest volcano located at 109 km its current status is restless
● M 5.0 - 58 km W of Tyonek, Alaska
2023-02-02 14:48:25 (UTC)
61.072°N 152.214°W. 111.0 km depth
USGS earthquake alert
A magnitude 5.0 earthquake 58 km (36 mi) W of Tyonek (pop: 171) The earthquake occurred at an intermediate depth of 111 km beneath the epicenter early morning on Thursday, February 2nd, 2023, at 5:48 am local time. Spurr is the nearest volcano located at 25 km from epicenter. Mount Spurr is a stratovolcano and is the highest volcano in the Aleutian Volcanic Arc. According to Volcanodiscovery "Mt Spurr had a violent sub-plinian eruption in 1992 and a large eruption in 1953, both ranking at VEI 4 and produced by Crater Peak, a small flank vent on the south side."
● M 5.0 - 84 km NNE of Tobelo, Indonesia

2.460°N 128.224°E. 88.2 km depth
USGS earthquake alert
An earthquake of magnitude 5.0 occurred 100 km north of Tobelo (pop. 10,000) Indonesia, Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency reported. The quake hit at an intermediate depth of 88 km beneath the epicenter near Tobelo, in the morning on Friday, February 3rd, 2023, at 8:05 am local time.
● Earthquake Forecast: Larger seismic activity may occur from 4 to 6 February, most likely up to mid or high 6 magnitude. There is a slight possibility of a larger seismic event around 4 February.
