April 18, 2024, 23:32: Earthquake at Campi Flegrei

Earthquakes with magnitude 1.6 felt at 23:32 on 18 April 2024.
Place: Campi Flegrei.

On Thursday 18 April 2024 at 23:32 an earthquake of magnitude 1.6 and depth 2.5 km was recorded in Campi Flegrei. Further info on the INGV webpage by clicking here.
Based on the depth of the hypocenter, earthquakes are classified into superficial (hypocenter between 0 e 70 and deep), intermediate (Hypocenter between 70 and 300 km deep) and deep (hypocenter between 300 and 720 km deep). The earthquake that occurred at 23:32 on 18 April 2024 with epicenter Campi Flegrei, having a depth of 2.5 km is therefore classified as superficial.
Being of magnitude 1.6, therefore less then 2.0, this earthquake is classified as "micro", as not felt by the population.
