 According to earthquake monitoring data from AllQuakes and earthquake tracking services, the United States experienced significant seismic activity throughout the first two weeks of January 2026. During January alone, the United States recorded 678 earthquakes with magnitudes up to 5.7, including 3 earthquakes above magnitude 5.

The most notable recent event occurred on Tuesday when a shallow magnitude 5.1 foreshock struck 251 kilometers from Whitehorse in Canada, followed by a magnitude 4.9 earthquake near Susanville in the United States on Tuesday evening. Earlier that same day, a magnitude 4.4 earthquake struck near Ukiah in the United States. These events represent some of the strongest seismic activity recorded in recent days across the North American region.

According to earthquake tracking services, activity has been particularly concentrated along the western United States. On Sunday, a magnitude 4.7 earthquake hit near Susanville, continuing a pattern of seismic unrest in that area. On Friday, a magnitude 4.0 earthquake struck near San Ramon, California, where two earthquakes measuring magnitudes 3.0 and below also occurred within minutes of each other on January 9th.

Globally, the week saw several significant earthquakes as well. On January 2nd, a magnitude 6.5 earthquake struck off the coast of Mexico near Guerrero, resulting in 2 deaths and 24 injuries according to the Wikipedia list of 2026 earthquakes. That same day, the Southeast Indian Ridge experienced a magnitude 6.0 earthquake. By January 12th, the largest global earthquake recorded was a magnitude 5.6 in the Sea of Okhotsk, located 279 kilometers north of Iturup Island in Russia's Sakhalin Oblast.

Most recently, on Wednesday, January 14th, a magnitude 5.1 earthquake struck in the North Pacific Ocean 274 kilometers from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia. According to earthquake monitoring services, that same day saw magnitude 2 to 3 level earthquakes throughout the United States, including events near Anchorage, Hawaii, and California.

Earthquake tracking statistics indicate that the United States averages approximately 174 earthquakes per year with magnitude 4 or above, or roughly one earthquake every two days. With 678 earthquakes recorded in just the first half of January 2026, activity levels appear elevated compared to historical averages. Scientists continue monitoring these patterns as the year progresses to better understand any emerging seismic trends across North America and the Pacific region.
