The month's largest event in Puerto Rico was a magnitude 2.3 earthquake near Maria Antonia, Puerto Rico on 01 November 2026 at 02:11 UTC. A magnitude 2.3 earthquake radiates roughly 37 kg of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.
That is below the Puerto Rico monthly average of 170 events over the period we cover — a comparatively quiet month, and down from the 131 recorded the previous month.
100% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). Almost everything here is crustal. That is characteristic of transform faulting or continental deformation rather than subduction — and it means shaking at the surface is strong for the magnitudes involved.
By band, the catalogue holds 1 in the magnitude 2 range.
That is 99% below the 170 events Puerto Rico averages per month across the 24 months on record.
