What might it be like?

Past examples of magnitude 4 and above earthquakes:


Magnitude

Spoleto-NW (Umbria)

With current levels of seismic activity the chance of an earthquake of magnitude 4 or more happening in this area between

4 May 2025 <-> 11 May 2025 is:

1.4%

Imagine 100,000 areas with exactly the same chance of an earthquake as this one.

Within the week of 4 May 2025 <-> 11 May 2025 with a 1.4% chance we would expect:

An earthquake of magnitude 4+ to happen in 1400 of them

No earthquake of magnitude 4+ to happen in 98600 of them
