Earthquake Magnitude Categories

Earthquake magnitudes are measured on a logarithmic scale, where each whole number represents a tenfold increase in the earthquake’s power.

  • Micro (Less than 3.0): Often not felt, but detectable by seismographs.
  • Minor (3.0-3.9): Often felt, but rarely cause damage.
  • Light (4.0-4.9): Noticeable shaking of indoor items, rattling noises. Significant damage unlikely.
  • Moderate (5.0-5.9): Can cause major damage to poorly constructed buildings over small regions. At most slight damage to well-designed buildings.
  • Strong (6.0-6.9): Can be destructive in areas up to about 160 kilometers (100 miles) across in populated areas.
  • Major (7.0-7.9): Can cause serious damage over larger areas.
  • Great (8.0 or higher): Can cause tremendous damage in areas several hundred kilometers across.

Note: Negative magnitudes represent extremely small earthquakes, detectable only by sensitive instruments.
