What it felt like where you live
Turn on GPS or save a zone to estimate arrival and intensity where you are. The epicenter can still be estimated.

Many people indoors feel it. Dishes and windows move.
What to do now
- Drop.
- Cover under a sturdy table.
- Hold on until it stops.
- Stay away from windows.
Did you feel it?
The form asks how it felt and, if there was any, the damage. That report feeds the community intensity map.
Say how it feltWhat the magnitude means
Published magnitude: 4.5 M.
Where this earthquake sits
Each extra point multiplies the energy by about 32 times.
Intensity: the epicenter and where you live
Turn on GPS or save a zone to estimate arrival and intensity where you are. The epicenter can still be estimated.
What should I do now?
What happened
Magnitude 4.5 earthquake, Los Asientos东南 9 km (Los Santos，巴拿马), 10 km deep. It happened 3小时前 (…).
Turn on your location to see how it may have felt where you are.
What to do
- 1If it is still shaking: drop, cover and hold on.
- 2Check everyone is okay and put on shoes.
- 3Small aftershocks may follow. That's normal.
- 4Text your family instead of calling.
Aftershocks: they may occur over the next 2 days within about 30 km. Nobody can predict them.

The main quake and its aftershocks
Aftershocks in this sequence
0No aftershocks recorded yet. If any appear, they show up here right away.
Other quakes in the area
0No earthquakes recorded in this area in the last 7 days.
How long it took to reach you
Turn on your location to time the wave.
Why it shakes here
10 km deep. Without your location we do not estimate how it felt where you are.
Technical detail
Turn on GPS or save a zone to estimate arrival and intensity where you are. The epicenter can still be estimated.
Intensity where you are
Atkinson & Wald (2007) intensity prediction equation, California coefficients (Table 1). D is the catalog hypocentral distance and R = √(D² + 14²). The paper’s residual is about 0.4 MMI units. It was calibrated on California reports, not Panama. Atkinson, Worden & Wald (2014) note that it can overpredict large magnitudes at short range.
At the epicenter: IV
The Mercalli scale runs to XII. This page shows I–X, the range of the equation.
Published event intensity: MMI 4.6
This is the source value (event ShakeMap or DYFI). It describes the earthquake, not your point. Your intensity is the estimate above.
Equivalent motion
PGA ≈ 39.3 cm/s² (0.040 g)
PGV ≈ 2.3 cm/s
This is not a recording of this earthquake. It is the PGA and PGV that Worden et al. (2012) associate, at the median, with that intensity, without the optional magnitude and distance residual. Scatter is about 0.35 in log10(PGA) and 0.38 in log10(PGV).

What the magnitude means
This is moment magnitude (Mw). It measures rupture size: area, slip and rigidity. It does not say how it felt at a place.
Magnitude is one number for the earthquake. Mercalli intensity changes with place: the same event is strong nearby and weak far away. Richter is not Mercalli.
Estimated radiated energy: 3.5×10^11 J. From log10(E) = 1.5 Mw + 4.8, with E in joules. One more Mw unit multiplies that energy by 31.6.
