What the record holds

The strongest was a magnitude 3.8 on July 24, 2019 (Maharashtra: Palghar). The deadliest was not the strongest: an earthquake on May 26, 1618 (Bombay), for which NOAA records 2,000 deaths. NOAA records deaths in 4 of the events here, 2,013 in all. NOAA’s record here begins on May 26, 1618 with an earthquake (Bombay). NOAA lists 2 tsunamis from elsewhere that reached the coast within 100 km of Thāne with deaths or a metre of water or more. The highest water NOAA records here was 3.3 m, on December 26, 2004. The deadliest here came on November 27, 1945 from a magnitude 8 earthquake (Makran Coast): NOAA’s runup records count 11 deaths within 100 km of Thāne.

Good to know

  • An event counts for Thāne when it began within 100 km of its centre, or 200 km for an earthquake of magnitude 7 or more. Damage can reach further.
  • USGS counts here start at magnitude 6: the catalogue’s smaller quakes thin out going back, where few instruments listened.
  • NOAA lists significant events only: earthquakes that killed, did about $1 million of damage, reached magnitude 7.5 or intensity X, or raised a tsunami, and eruptions and tsunamis by like measures. Magnitudes before 1900 are its estimates from written accounts.
  • Deaths are NOAA’s total for each event, wherever people died, its tsunami and fires included. A tsunami counts the dead its runup records give for this place: NOAA’s total for a tsunami includes its source quake’s.
  • A tsunami from elsewhere counts where one of its runups killed or rose a metre or more.
  • Counted to October 19, 2026, as is the map. The last 30 days ask USGS again.
