The authoritative source for the Caribbean is the UWI Seismic Research Centre. Local networks have denser stations than the global USGS feed and may report additional small events or slightly different magnitudes.

Can this page warn me before an earthquake?

No — and neither can any website. Earthquakes cannot be predicted. This page records events within minutes after they happen. Early-warning systems that give seconds of notice exist in some countries and operate through official apps and broadcasts.

About this data

Figures come from the US Geological Survey real-time feed — automatic solutions published within minutes and refined by analysts. The official source for the Caribbean is the UWI Seismic Research Centre, whose denser local network may list additional small events or slightly different magnitudes.

This page records earthquakes after they happen and is not an early-warning system. For warnings and safety guidance, follow the UWI Seismic Research Centre and your civil protection authority.
